'Nobody is going to defund the police': Top black congressman says Democrats want to 'deconstruct' US policingThe top black US congressman has signalled in clear terms he does not support calls to "defund the police," despite a wave of activism calling for such measures in the wake of the death of George Floyd and other black people during incidents involving police.“Nobody is going to defund the police.
