This is a direct consequence of Trump & MAGA who joked about the hammer attack on Pelosi’s husband in their home.
law enforcement officials say they made a proactive check at Rep. Hortman's home after a lawmaker who lived nearby was shot and found a "police vehicle in the driveway with emergency lights and what appeared to be a police officer at the door coming out of the house." He was actually the gunman.

Well, it’s up to the People in the streets now to stop this.
Today they have crossed a deep red line.
We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Red Missouri hates Blue Kansas City. They shouldn’t be allowed to like our Chiefs & BBQ. I’m not really kidding.
Most folks, even in MO, don’t realize that the Kansas City Police force is not run by the city of Kansas City. It is basically run by a state board appointed by the governor, and unfortunately, voted on statewide in vaguely worded measures by folks who don’t understand that’s the case. Good times.
Missouri adopted a statewide measure earlier this year that forces Kansas City, and only Kansas City, to spend a large chunk of its budget on policing.
“That takes money away from infrastructure investments, that takes money away from just basic services,” says one local critic.
