Washington, DC – U.S. Representative Cori Bush (D-Missouri) has dumped nearly $70,000 into her own personal security over the past three months, all while calling for police to be defunded.
Between April 15 and June 28, Bush spent a whopping $54,120.92 in campaign funds to RS&T Security Consulting for “security services,” FOX News reported.
The transactions, as well as an additional $15,000 paid to Nathaniel Davis for “security services” during the same block of time, were included in the Federal Election Commission (FEC) records that were released July 22, according to the news outlet. The FEC records indicate the anti-police Congresswoman spent a total of $197,000 in campaign expenditures between April 15 and April 20.
More than a third went towards “The Squad” member’s private security, which was nearly double what she doled out for security during the last quarter, FOX News reported.
While Bush was spending tens of thousands to ensure her own safety, she simultaneously called for law enforcement to be defunded.
When St. Louis lawmakers voted to defund the city’s police budget by $4 million and to eliminate nearly 100 vacant officer positions on April 29, Bush praised the move as a “historic” moment.
“For decades, our city funneled more and more money into our police department under the guise of public safety, while massively underinvesting in the resources that will truly keep our communities safe,” Bush declared in a statement at the time.

“The people have demanded a new approach to community safety — and from the Mayor’s office to the Halls of Congress, we were elected to deliver one,” she continued. “We have a mandate to fully fund our social services. To invest in our communities, not criminalize them. To end police violence. To provide alternatives to police like unarmed mental health professionals or social workers to respond to crisis calls. That is what organizers in our communities have fought for, that is what St. Louis has demanded, and that is what we, as elected officials, promised St. Louis.”
Bush said she is “incredibly proud” St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones endorsed the proposal to defund the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department (SLMPD).“Today’s […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
