Ex-NYPD Commissioner Kelly slams Cori Bush over call to defund police: 'Stupidest political move ever'

Cori Bush, D-Mo., Friday for making one of the most "stupidest political moves ever" by admittedly spending $70,000 on private security while pushing to defund the police, telling colleagues in an interview to "suck it up," and that "defunding the police has to happen."
