Democratic mayors in 20 of the nation’s 25 biggest cities slashed policedepartment budgets and positions even as they spent millions of tax dollars on their own security details, according to data obtained by a government watchdog.
“In 25 major U.S. cities, officials have proposed cutting—or in 20 cases already cut—police budgets.
