MILWAUKEE (AP) — More than 100 police agencies are withdrawing from agreements to send personnel to bolster security at next month's Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee, in part because they're concerned about a recent directive ordering police in the city to stop using tear gas to control crowds.
A citizen oversight commission last week directed Milwaukee’s police chief to publicly account for why the department used tear gas during protests in late May and early June after the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis and to change Milwaukee's police policies to ban the use of tear gas and pepper spray. The Milwaukee Fire and Police Commission said in its order that Police Chief Alfonso Morales could be fired if he fails to comply.

I’d imagine NFAC, blm and Antifa could provide “protection” for them.
ooooooooooooh noooooooooooooo
Protection and the protests.
The Police should just pay the democrats what they’re owed.
A big middle finger and a hearty Screw You!
The DNC should use the security from CHAZ, BLM, and Antifa. That would be a convention to behold!
This is perfect! If I were in Security, I wouldn’t want to be responsible for that band of miscreants, either.
If this convention ever DOES come together, get your marshmallows and weenies ready to roast because Milwaukeestan WILL be on fire.
Did you know that the Delegates aren’t even STAYING in Milwaukee? Last I read, they will be bused in from Illinois each day.
However, I thought the DNC was cancelling and going to hold their convention ‘telepathically’ from Slow Joe’s Basement?
I was just gona say, make sorros pay for expensive contractors, but the volunteer antifa on the cheap part would be priceless
I think a daisy cutter or two would be an effective deterrent.
This headline made me smile.
Good! Want to defund the police, FINE, take care of your own a@@es
They need cops for a virtual convention?
Hope they understand, the democrap party hates the police. They want to defund you, limit your ability to do your job, and won’t stand behind you.
The dems would rather let BLM and Antifa handle security.
The MSM would have their panties in a wad as they decide what real news not to cover as if they used those groups for security it would be the most ridiculous event ever. The largest circle jerk in history with the modern Stooges as pivot men. What’s not to like?
They should, oh wait, those folks are the ones that are defying the Democrats more than anyone else LOL.
I read if the Democrats do not have ‘Medicare for all” then the Bernie supports with strongly protest. I do not think the Democratcs will include that position so guess it would have been helpful to support the police. May need to get more popcorn....
If they are bused in from Illinois, how will they deal with the new 14 day quarantine?
