Cops defunded, de Blasio's wife urges New Yorkers to do their own policing "Did it occur to any of the leftist politicians boostering for the 'Defund the Police' far-left trope that they might just be left holding the bag? "Seems not. And sure enough, it's slowly starting to dawn on them that were played for fools.
