They did not defund the fire department. They still shoukd defund the cops, but don't make shit up to argue for it.

They cut the fire departments budget, is that not defunding?

Increasing police funding consistently while not doing the same at the same rate for fire health and emergency services is in fact defunding the fire department.

When cop salaries and equipment are always priority #1, the police are in fact defunding US
