Defunding the police was intended to take some of the huge budgets that police have and hire professionals to deal with the problems police make worse and more dangerous. There are communities that do it and love it. They have psychologists and social workers defusing citizens with problems. Defunding the Police was a wrong and bad name for it.

Merriam Webster: : to withdraw funding from

Oxford: prevent (a group or organization) from continuing to receive funds

Dictionary.com:
to withdraw financial support from, especially as an instrument of legislative control:Many university programs were defunded by the recent government cutbacks.
to deplete the financial resources of:The cost of the lawsuit defunded the company's operating budget

I didn't change the meaning of anything. I presented established definitions. Obviously, different people use the term in with different meanings (like alternative facts).

So you will cherry pick definitions. Defund also means allowing less funds which means you take away funds
