00:00LAPD is defunding this city.
00:02You might have heard LA is broke,
00:04but how can that be with a $6.6 billion annual budget?
00:08There's a $3 billion elephant in the room
00:10that makes up 46% of the city's budget.
00:13Our neighborhoods are being severely underfunded
00:15while the police are being overfunded.
00:17LAPD liability claims have cost the city
00:19nearly $400 million since 2019.
00:23The LAPD is notoriously corrupt, racist, and sexist,
00:26but I'm not afraid of bullies.
00:27I'm ready to take the LAPD head-on.
00:29The first thing I'm gonna do is fire Chief McDonnell,
00:32and this is how I'm gonna do it.
00:38Two, I'll make sure the liability payouts
00:40come from the LAPD budget
00:41and not the city discretionary fund.
00:43Three, I'll direct the city attorney to prosecute
00:45and arrest cops that break the law.
00:47This city needs real safety,
00:49and that starts with accountability
00:50and real changes to the LAPD.
