The police chief and three officers that make up the entire four-person police department of the town of Geary, Oklahoma, and two of the town’s city council members have resigned with little explanation.

Former Police Chief Alicia Ford did not address the specific reasons for the Thursday resignations, but wrote in a social media post that the decision was difficult.

I could see this becoming normal as the often corrupt, violent and authoritarian police unions are attempted to be held to account or reshaped; curious what state law and/or their CBA will say about this...Reagan and Republicans would want to break this wild, liberal union cash grab....right guys? Just like Biden broke the rail strike?
