JOHNNY JOEY JONES (CO-HOST): Defund the police: It wasn't some kind of like movement towards a bill that would take money away. But it was a cultural narrative that said policing is so rotten in and of itself, that it needs to be done away with and replaced with good will and understanding and empathetic DA’s  that won't lock someone away for breaking a law that maybe was rooted in what they call “racism” to begin with. The word racism is almost extinct now because we can't discern true racism from wokeness. Wokeness is racism in and of itself.
