Cortney Merritts, Rep. Cori Bush’s (D-MO) now-husband after being quietly married last month, has collected $60,000 from the congresswoman’s campaign for security services despite reportedly not having a St. Louis security license.
PEACE Security — which Fox News Digital says is a St. Louis-based firm that employs several “security operators” with military or law enforcement experience — $225,281.80 for “security services” and $50,000 to a Nathaniel Davis for “security services.”
Last week, it was reported that Bush married the “security guard” in a private ceremony in St. Louis. At the time, it was reported that it was the same security guard she had previously paid with campaign finances. The report claimed that the two had been together since before Bush took office in 2021.last year, the congresswoman was at the center of controversy upon revelations she paid for private security despite her hardline Defund the Police stance.
“The thing about defund the police is we have to tell the entire narrative. People hear ‘defund the police.’ But you know what they’ll say? Say ‘reallocate,’ say ‘divest,’ say ‘move.’ But it’s still the same thing,” she said. “We can’t get caught up on the words. People spend more time focusing on the word ‘defund’ than they spend on caring and addressing the problem of police in this country,” she added.
