州议员弗朗西斯卡·洪在2021年的帖子中表示,她希望“先削减警察经费,再废除警察”

一名参与威斯康星州州长竞选的民主党社会主义者曾呼吁“先削减经费,再废除警察”。
威斯康星州众议员弗朗西斯卡·洪在当选公职前后,针对乔治·弗洛伊德遭枪杀和雅各布·布雷克遭枪击事件,在社交媒体上连发多篇帖子呼吁终结警务体系。
2020年8月的一篇帖子(最先由CNN报道)中,洪写道:“我支持削减警察经费,将其作为废除警察制度的第一步。”

“雅各布·布雷克正在与死神搏斗,但他本不必如此,”她在当时名为推特的X平台上写道,“我们必须为他的生命而战,为所有遭受国家 sanctioned 暴力伤害的人伸张正义。”
布雷克在威斯康星州基诺沙遭警察连开七枪,当时警方接到家庭暴力报警后出警。此次事件导致他半身瘫痪,并在2020年引发大规模暴力抗议活动。
当时他身上携带的一把折叠刀在冲突中掉落,他在捡起刀后遭到枪击。
2021年10月,身为当选公职人员的洪再次就该事件表态,回应联邦检察官决定不对开枪的罗斯滕·谢斯基警官提起诉讼的决定——该警官一年多前射杀了布雷克。

“后背中七枪怎么能不算过度武力,”洪在网上写道,“警察的存在就是为了维护白人至上。先削减经费,再废除警察。改革根本行不通。布雷克家族和他们的社区至今仍在承受创伤,我的心都碎了。”
洪在给福克斯新闻数字频道的一份声明中似乎对之前的帖子改口,但并未说明如果当选州长,她是否会推动削减警察经费并废除警察制度。
“我绝对不想削减公共安全资源,”洪说,“我痛恨犯罪,痛恨街道不安全的状况。我同样痛恨执法人员滥用职权的行为。”
曼德拉·巴恩斯宣布参选威斯康星州州长——2022年参议院竞选带来的包袱如影随形
“每个人都应该获得保障安全所需的资源,包括住房、高薪工作、心理健康支持和社区资源,”她继续说道,“作为州长,我将审视州内的每一个地区,与地方领导人合作,制定解决方案,满足我们的迫切需求。”
洪获得了明尼苏达州民主党众议员伊尔汗·奥马尔和加利福尼亚州民主党众议员罗·卡纳的背书,是威斯康星州民主党提名竞争激烈的初选候选人之一。初选投票日仍在数月后的8月11日,洪与前副州长、2022年民主党参议院候选人曼德拉·巴恩斯的竞争十分激烈。
两党初选的获胜者很可能将对决威斯康星州共和党众议员汤姆·蒂凡尼——他是众议院自由核心小组成员,也是共和党提名的领跑者。蒂凡尼在给福克斯新闻数字频道的声明中抨击了两位候选人。

“这就是如今民主党党的样子,”蒂凡尼说,“无论是弗朗西斯卡·洪坚持废除警察制度,还是曼德拉·巴恩斯呼吁清空监狱并终结现金保释制度,他们都是彻头彻尾的极左翼激进分子,比起保护犯罪受害者,他们更在意保护罪犯。”
蒂凡尼的竞选团队还向福克斯新闻数字频道提供了巴恩斯过往的帖子,其中他曾呼吁“将监狱人口削减一半”,以及他十年前提出的终结现金保释的立法提案。
福克斯新闻数字频道已联系巴恩斯的竞选团队置评,但未立即得到回复。

Dem socialist running for Wisconsin governor pushed ‘abolishing the police’

State assembly member Francesca Hong said she wanted to ‘defund then abolish’ police in a 2021 post

A Democratic socialist running for governor in Wisconsin once called to “defund, then abolish,” the police.
Wisconsin state Rep. Francesca Hong, in a flurry of posts on social media, called for the end of policing in the wake of the slaying of George Floyd and the shooting of Jacob Blake, before and during her time as an elected official.
In one post made in August 2020, first reported by CNN, Hong said, “I support defunding the police as a first step towards abolishing the police.”

“Jacob Blake is fighting for his life, but he shouldn’t have to be,” she said on X, then Twitter. “We must also fight for his life and get justice for all those harmed by state-sanctioned violence.”
Blake was shot seven times in Kenosha, Wis., after police responded to a domestic disturbance call. The incident left him partially paralyzed and sparked a wave of violent protests in 2020.
He had a pocket knife on him that fell from his pocket in the altercation, which he picked up before being shot.
Hong again weighed in on the issue, this time as an elected official in October 2021 in response to federal prosecutors’ decision to not file charges against Officer Rusten Sheskey, who shot Blake over a year prior.

“How is 7 bullets in the back not excessive force,” Hong said online. “Police exist to uphold white supremacy. Defund then abolish. Reform can’t be an option. My heart breaks for the trauma the Blake family and their community continues to endure.”
In a statement to Fox News Digital, Hong appeared to backtrack from the posts, but didn’t say whether as governor she would move to defund and abolish the police.
“There is no way I want to cut resources for public safety,” Hong said. “I don’t like crime. I don’t like unsafe streets. I also don’t like when a member of law enforcement abuses their power.”
MANDELA BARNES JUMPS INTO WISCONSIN GOVERNOR RACE — BUT BAGGAGE FROM HIS 2022 SENATE BID FOLLOWS

“Everyone deserves the resources they need to be safe, including housing, good-paying jobs, mental health supports and community resources,” she continued. “As governor, I will look at every part of the state and work with local leaders to shape solutions that address our immediate needs.”
Hong, who is endorsed by Reps. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Ro Khanna, D-Calif., is one of several candidates in a crowded primary for the Democratic nomination in Wisconsin. Primary Election Day is still a ways away on Aug. 11, and Hong is locked in a tight battle with former Lieutenant Governor and 2022 Democratic nominee for Senate Mandela Barnes.
The winner of their primary will likely square off against Rep. Tom Tiffany, R-Wis., a member of the House Freedom Caucus and frontrunner in his bid for the Republican nomination. Tiffany, in a statement to Fox News Digital, took a shot at both candidates.

“This is what today’s Democrat Party has become,” Tiffany said. “Whether it’s Francesca Hong doubling down on abolishing the police or Mandela Barnes calling to empty prisons while pushing to end cash bail, they are both far-left radicals who care more about protecting criminals than the innocent people harmed by their crimes.”
Tiffany’s campaign directed Fox News Digital to older posts from Barnes, too, where he pushed to “cut the prison population in half,” and legislation he introduced a decade ago to end cashless bail.
Fox News Digital reached out to Barnes’ campaign for comment but did not immediately hear back.
