Shop NowHouse Minority Leader Jeffries (D-N.Y.) has been spouting off at the mouth quite a bit lately.
Well, Speaker McCarthy (R-CA) just proved that he cannot even get his party on the same page.
More than a dozen Democrats just sided with the GOP on a key piece of legislation that makes Jeffries look like a fool.
We Don’t Like It
One again, Democrats were hoping to decrease the tools used by police in DC, as well as making reforms that would cripple the department.
The legislation proposed by the DC City Council was so extreme, even Mayor Bowser did not want to put her signature on it.
When Republicans created legislation to overturn the new law, it overwhelmingly passed thanks to 14 Democrats with some sense crossing over the aisle.
The measure passed 229-189.
Rep. James Comer (R-KY) stated, “The D.C. police department has seen over 1,190 police officers leave the force since the beginning of 2020.
“That’s about one-third of the D.C. police department. Nearly 40% of those officers resigned.
“That means they chose to leave the department instead of dealing with the increasingly impossible burdens placed on them by the council. Since then, crime has been soaring in the district.”
Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-GA) added, “Officers are expressing their great concern with their feet and are leaving faster than they can be replaced. The DC police force has been depleted to an astonishing half-century low.”
Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-D.C.) tried to push the ever-dependable narrative that this was racism by the GOP.
She stated, “By scheduling this vote, I can only conclude that the Republican leadership believes that D.C. residents, a majority of whom are Black and Brown, are unworthy of governing themselves.”
No, the idiots they voted to City Council are a bunch of woke idiots that are incapable of governing the city.
