It sure feels like common sense packed its bags and left Washington D.C. a long time ago. Maybe it sent a postcard, but it probably got lost in the mail with all those other sensible ideas we used to count on. You know, like telling the truth, or agreeing that bad things are, well, bad.
These days, it seems some people in power would rather play silly political games than stand up for what’s right. It’s like watching a food fight in a fancy restaurant. Everyone gets messy, nothing gets solved, and you’re left wondering who’s going to clean it all up. And if you thought things couldn’t get more topsy-turvy, hold onto your hats. Because what just happened in the People’s House will make your head spin.
Believe it or not, more than 100 Democrats in the House of Representatives just voted against a resolution. What was this terrible resolution, you ask? It was a simple statement condemning a hateful, antisemitic fire attack in Boulder, Colorado. Yes, you read that right. They voted no on saying an antisemitic attack was bad. The resolution also pointed out that the suspect was an illegal immigrant, a fact that seems to make some Democrats very uncomfortable.
Republicans were rightly shocked. As one party spokesperson put it:
From ‘The Daily Wire’:
“House Democrats just sided with terrorists over cops and couldn’t even bring themselves to condemn antisemitism. They’re officially the antisemite and anti-cop caucus,” Mike Marinella, a spokesperson for the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), said in a statement.
The Left’s Twisted Logic
Let’s be clear about the Boulder attack. The man charged, Mohamed Sabry Soliman, is an Egyptian who overstayed his visa. He allegedly shouted “Free Palestine” and said he wanted to kill Zionists during his firebombing. This wasn’t just a random act; it was described as an “antisemitic terrorist attack.” The resolution condemned this and also praised ICE for their work.
So why would over 100 Democrats say no? Their leader, Hakeem Jeffries, dismissed the Republican who wrote the resolution, Rep. Gabe Evans, and called the whole thing a “joke.” Another Democrat complained that talking about the attacker’s illegal immigration status “uses Jews as a partisan pawn.” Think about that. They’re upset that condemning an antisemitic act also points out the failure of our immigration system under past policies. Could it be that condemning antisemitism is only okay if it doesn’t also prove Republicans and President Trump right about border security and the dangers of illegal immigration? It sure looks like it.
When Party Trumps Principle
It’s a strange world when a political party seems more offended by a Republican resolution than by an actual antisemitic attack. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise hit the nail on the head. He said, “Only radical Democrats would call it a joke to denounce antisemitic terrorism and express gratitude to law enforcement for detaining the terrorist here illegally who perpetrated the Boulder attack.” The Republican Jewish Coalition called the Democrats’ votes “shameful.”
This isn’t just about one vote. It smells like a pattern. It seems some Democrats are so blinded by their dislike for President Trump and anything Republicans support, they’ll vote against common sense and common decency. If a resolution points out that illegal immigration is dangerous – a core Trump message – then even condemning antisemitism in that same resolution is apparently a bridge too far for them. Are they embracing antisemitism just to spite their opponents? It’s a sickening thought, but their actions speak loudly.
What This Means for America
This vote sends a chilling message. It tells Jewish Americans that their safety is less important than partisan squabbles. It tells law enforcement, like ICE, that they won’t be supported if it makes certain politicians look bad. And it tells radical groups that one major American party might just look the other way, or at least make excuses, for their hate.
When a party can’t even bring itself to condemn a clear act of antisemitic terror because the resolution also mentions an illegal immigrant, something is deeply wrong. It shows a disturbing willingness to protect a political narrative, even if it means downplaying hate or siding against our own security. This isn’t just bad politics; it’s a danger to the values we hold dear.
Our leaders should be the first to stand against hate, no matter where it comes from. They should be the first to demand secure borders and the rule of law. But it seems over 100 Democrats have forgotten that. They’ve chosen spite over safety, and party over principle. It’s a sad day when common sense is so rare in Washington, but it’s a reminder for the rest of us to keep fighting for it.
