Can you believe this vote to honor a white supremacist? No wonder people have totally lost faith in the Democratic Party. Fake Christian Mike Johnson is beaming with white supremacist glee as he crows what a good Christian man Charlie Kirk was, father, and founder of Turning Point USA.
Charlie Kirk was a racist bigot, divisive, and he certainly knew how to make money from his rotten rhetoric.
The Senate took up the resolution after the House passed it, and guess what? It passed unanimously in the Senate! Not one stood against this resolution. The Democratic Senate has become as useless as an appendix, and all they give a shit is about their jobs! Their political careers. Not the people, not this country. Liberals need to find other people to take their place; I am sorry, they are no good to the American people anymore. I cannot see us winning the mid-terms unless new people come in, because those watching and wondering whether they should vote this time, just said the hell with it. This is looking worse day by day!
For 58 House Democrats with backbone, the answer was a clear "NO"! The resolution had language in it condemning political violence, while saddling the bill with a load of bullshit to honor white supremacist Charlie Kirk. Again, only 58 Democrats had the guts to take a stand against it, and according to Politico, 38 voted "present" and 22 did not vote at all. Ninety-five Democrats voted "YES" to pay homage to a white supremacist. Vote all 95 reps out in the primaries! Support any Democratic contenders in your state and get these people the hell out as representatives!!
Of course, no one wants to see political violence--ever. Why have an asinine resolution on it--saying what--we hate political violence? No resolution was needed, however, the white supremacist Republican Party wants to honor a hateful man who held the same racist and hateful beliefs as they do. They are trying to "normalize" their openness with racial hatred and bigotry upon Americans, and we cannot remain silent. We absolutely need new leaders!
Maryland's Jamie Raskin voted "yes". Vote his ass out! You have shown yourself to be the spineless jellyfish you are, over and over again, even voting with Republicans on cryptocurrency. You do not represent Democratic voters, you are just cosplaying. Hakeem Jefferies also supported the measure, I am fed up with his useless ass who disappoints like clockwork. Fed up!
Directly below is a list of Democrats who stood against this bill to honor a terrible man. It goes without saying, this bill was not necessary to denounce political violence. I have not left the "yes" voters out, so I will put their chicken shit names along with their states as well. You will also find the M.I.A.s and those voting "present" as well.
No wonder there is so much apathy and resignation. How the hell is this party going to engage potential voters, when so many Democrats run with their tails between their legs every chance they get? This party does not know what to do with itself. I am however thankful to the 58 House representatives which did the right thing, and said through their votes honoring a white supremacist is unacceptable.
(The lists below are of only of House members. As mentioned, the Senate vote was unanimous.)
