Sens. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., and Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said in interviews on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” that they will not vote for Department of Homeland Security funding after the latest fatal shooting of an American by a federal agent in Minneapolis.
“When they’re killing two constituents in my state, and they’re taking 2-year-olds out of the arms of their mom, and they are taking an elder Hmong man out of his house and putting him out there in his underwear, and then figuring out they have the wrong man,” Klobuchar told moderator Kristen Welker, “no, I am not voting for this funding.”
Schiff said he was “not giving ICE or border patrol another dime, given how this agency, these agencies are operating.”
Bare minimum Klobuchar manages to barely eek out the right stance after failing to meet the moment in her own fucking state. Call for the identity of the agents to be made public and call for the MN police to arrest them: challenge impossible.
If you don’t draw the line at genocide in Israel, why the fuck would you draw the line at police brutality at home?
The senator added that there must be a “transparent” investigation into the killings of Pretti and Good.
“We must have transparent investigations, not only of the shooting of Alex Pretti, but of course, the shooting of Renee Good,” she said. “Again, two people with no criminal records.”
This is why liberal identity driven politicians cannot lead against fascists. Your constitutional rights do not cease to exist when you committed a crime in the past, but that line was drawn by DEMOCRATS. Fucking pathetic
She is so unimpressive.
It is really weird how her profile was raised in the 2020 presidential primaries, because you’re right, she’s really unimpressive. Some other moderates are really charismatic or have really impressive personal stories, but she’s just kind of a generic mediocre politician with nothing particularly interesting to say.
And apparently has a crippling honey addiction.
*Eke
Schumer will still muster enough votes to make sure it passes and the rest can claim plausible deniability. None of them can be trusted and will betray us, again.
Sleepy time Democrats are finally waking up? Probably just hitting the snooze.
