  1. She wanted to defund the police department but she paid her security thousands of taxpayers dollars…it doesn't make sense…she should be investigated and arrest for corruption.

  2. All us Democrats need to support Cori Bush by sending money for her security to keep her safe from MAGA extremists ✊🏿

  3. It's awful expensive to protect yourself from all the white supremacist running around St Louis and DC ,you don't understand because you're not a black woman with a husband that needed a job

  4. Make no mistake. This isn’t just because she was using funds although that is definitely part of the reason. For whatever reason these were mongering Democrats get angry if you say anything that doesn’t align with them when it comes to Israel and Palestine. This is one of those fallen lying type moments they’ve had this card for a while and no she’s been doing it. They just now decided to use it because of her stance on Israel and Palestine. Because guess what the DOJ is controlled by democrats not Republicans so you guys can blame the right all you want but it’s not the Wright that’s doing this to her. Yeah they’re adding fuel to the fire but it’s ultimately the Democrats she didn’t fall in line with Biden’s agenda.

  5. Tell Thanos to stop being greedy. 🤬

  6. When you’re hired based purely on skin color and gender this is what you get .

  7. Bush’s husband is not standing by his wife’s side.

  8. One of the dudes she hired not the one that was her husband but the other one is a self-proclaimed trillion year old wizard named aha who says he can teach you how to direct lightning and conjure fire and tornadoes with your mind. Cori bush paid him $160000 in security consulting fees

  9. Leave Cori Bush ALONE! The repug Party SHOULD be sent ALL the Bills for Security, for ALL of our Democratic Politicians, both in Congress & thruout the States! THIS is what one person, donald j. trump, has foisted upon PPL just trying to do their JOBS! Nobody should EVER have 2B even considering Security bcuz of a Former POTUS!

  10. Could that NEHLS have been ANY MORE racist & misogynoir. "Thug" is a straightup Racist BULLHORN! and saying someone is "too loud," is language that has always & ever been reserved for attacks on Women who are just too "ASSERTIVE." How dare SHE!

  11. She’s a crook. What a shocker.

  12. You gonna be fine, girl. Remember, this be Biden's DOJ you a democrat and so them MAGA fools can't hurt you.

  13. she will blame it all on racism in..3,2,1…

  14. The reichwing has no self awareness. They are just trying to distract from their inability to do anything other than waste time and money.

  15. ETA on the race card being pulled? Some absurdly ridiculous assertion that the investigation into her corruptions is "RAAAAACIST" 🤭🤭

  16. The blavk matriarchy has failed so miserably it becomes time consuming to try to keep up.

  17. There are a whole lot of Black women who are financing their Black men by paying them to date, marry and be with them. These Black women are jeopardizing their careers, futures, reputations and incomes just to say they have a man. No man is worth losing your career, reputation and future.

    Black women please STOP letting these Black men infringe upon your lifestyles, careers, homes, and incomes. Learn to have INTEGRITY through and through.

    Cori Bush is such a DISAPPOINTMENT and EMBARRASSMENT…..just like Fani Willis.

    Please provide “Ethics” classes for BW and BM.

  18. Democrats gonna Democrat!!

  19. Loud mouth not screaming now is she haaaa

  20. The little thief “preacher” stole 100,000 wow she paid her husband to marry her haaaaa she’s trash at its finest Gods gonna get you Cory ewwwww bad too

  21. I knew it. St. Louisians only received $500.00 stimulus payments. We never received any updates to road repairs either.

  22. Once again they're trying to take down a strong Black woman who says things MAGA doesn't like. She needs the protection because of MAGA! This is just a sophisticated form of lynching.

  23. NO POLICE FOR THEE, BUT SECURITY FOR ME ——– CORI BUSH ———

  24. So a homeless person funneled money to her pimp. Meanwhile Omar married her brother, Tlaib openly backs Hamas, and AOC hates her grandma. The vile squad strikes again!

  25. Why don’t we get rid of ilhan Omar since she admitted she’s working for Somalia?????

  26. She doesnt need security because no one wants to be around here.

  27. UAW,BLM and LGBTQ supports Cori Bush🚗🤛🏿🏳️‍🌈👍

  28. What's new, so typical. She'll use the racecard and get out of it. It's "the man" trying to ruin her.

  29. Gotta love all the useless vitriol in the comments! As if corruption amongst politicians isn't enough, …Folks have to bring so-called race into this. This country is definitely on its "last legs" if this nonsense keeps up!

  30. If the ethics board dismissed the matter why is it being revisited? 🤔

  31. Doesn’t she know you can only use campaign funds to pay p*rn stars?!

  32. Imagine that from a LIB -TARD , Hmmm 🧐🤔🥴
