Several Minneapolis City Council members who have received death threats following their calls to defund the police after the death of George Floyd have been assigned private security details reportedly costing the city $4,500 a day in taxpayer dollars.
According to information obtained by Fox News, the city has spent $63,000 on private security over the last three weeks.
The names of the people getting security details are not public, a city spokesperson told Fox News Saturday.
The names of three council members who are receiving private security detail have already been made public, two of whom interviewed with local affiliate Fox 9 on Friday. The spokesperson did not respond to Fox News questions about whether or not there were additional council members receiving security detail.
The threats reportedly came after the council members were vocal in their calls to defund the Minneapolis Police Department (MPD).

Protection for me, but not for thee
I swear I never saw your posts! Ha ha.
*** ULTIMATE DEMOCRAT STUPIDITY AND MALFEASANCE ***
Misappropriation of taxpayer money. Arrest the cop-hating Marxists!
Morons are electing morons.
May the Force be with you. :-)
Pure Evil. How can any decent person register anything but disgust at these “people”?
Thank God most God-fearing Americans are ARMED.
DE-FUND Private Security-
Now, if the threats are real, let’s play with it a little. If the “threats” do take out these three Marxists/fools, then the city wouldn’t have to spend $4,000+ a day to protect them.
Funerals run around $12,000 (corrupt politicians get a discount) but their insurance might cover it. The police wouldn’t spend too much money trying to find and capture the “threats” since secretly they probably have a “deadpool” going on deep in their precincts.
Now this is all speculation but in Minneapolis, after the last month of rioting and killings, it seems that nothing is “Normal” there anymore, if it ever was.
Not to defend these cowards but using private security is probably much cheaper than putting police on OT to protect their worthless lives.
Me: Oh, look over there a flower. Excuse me councilman while I go admire that flower.
Probably sent in by their own for he xcuse of getting private security.
People in Minneapolis should start demanding the city hire private security at public expense for themselves as well, just to highlight the irony and hypocrisy when they are laughed at by the city council that is providing it for themselves.
I’m sure the irony escapes them.
Our private gun security is public but theirs is private
This is proof that the 2A is a privacy right that is much abused
None of their business what weapon a citizen has
Morons are electing morons.

Yes, anti-American Marxists are morons, thats true.
Weve been indoctrinating generations of Americans to wannabe Marxism and importing millions upon millions of America hating Marxists.
Thats pretty moronic indeed,
