YouTube Description
as posted by the channel🎫 THE VAULT 2025 | SEPT 8TH 11TH | THE GAYLORD PALMS | ORLANDO, FL
The panel reacts to shocking numbers out of Los Angeles, where dozens of LAPD officers are now earning over $400,000 a year due to out-of-control overtime costs. After slashing the police budget in 2021, the city now spends more than ever on fewer officers—while crime continues and essential services get cut. What was meant to “reimagine policing” is now draining city resources and delivering worse outcomes for everyone. Is this what defund the police was supposed to fix?
