'Unfortunately, 'Defund the Police' isn’t a policy, it’s a bumper sticker. At best, it’s a political Rorschach test that is only popular insofar as people see in it what they want to see,' writes Chris Truax for usatodayopinion.

In what may have been her finest political hour, Hillary Clinton had an impromptu heart-to-heart talk with Black Lives Matter activists back in. When the activists were turned away from one of her events because of space limitations, Clinton offered to meet with them privately and discuss their concerns.

“Look, I don’t believe you change hearts. I believe you change laws, you change allocation of resources, you change the way systems operate. You’re not going to change every heart. You’re not. . . . You can keep the movement going, which you have started, and through it you may actually change some hearts. But if that’s all that happens, we’ll be back here in 10 years having the same conversation.
