Most House Democrats vote against amendment that would keep convicted terrorists from working for the TSA
What could possibly go wrong? Convicted terrorists are simply people who have acted upon their justifiable grievances against the U.S. and Israel, right? Don’t you stand against colonialism, imperialism, and racism, you greasy Islamophobe?

174 Democrats Vote Against Amendment That Aims To Make It Harder To Hire TSA Employees With Terrorist Or Sexual Crime Record
by David Krayden, Daily Caller, March 6, 2020:
House Republicans and 42 Democrats joined forces Thursday to pass an amendment to the Rights for Transportation Security Officers Act that would keep people convicted of sexual assault, terrorism and other violent crimes from working for the Transportation Security Agency (TSA).
But 174 House Democrats — including House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer — did not support the legislation.
The vast majority of Democrats voted against the amendment, which was authored by Democratic Illinois Rep. Lauren Underwood.
Republican House Leader Kevin McCarthy was quick to criticize the Democratic leadership for rejecting the law.
“[The amendment] was pulled back by leadership because the socialist wing of the party did not want to have that amendment go forward on this bill,” the California representative said Thursday, according to the Washington Free Beacon. “When it was offered, overwhelmingly the majority of the House would like to see the TSA not hire terrorists or those who have been convicted of sexual misconduct with minors and others. But the socialist wing of the party, that controls now the Democratic Party, said that that could not be offered.”
Every member of the “squad” voted against the amendment. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi did not cast a vote….
Critics have also faulted TSA for being lax when it comes to identifying people on the terror watch list….
The Rights for Transportation Security Officers Act passed the House with a vote of 230-171….

Those 174 are a list of those who should be immediately removed from office for treason and or incredible stupidity!
They have promoted the creation of an islamic fifth column waiting to cause chaos in America!
A vote for a democrat is a vote to put America under sharia slavery.

I’d like to know it any GOPers voted against this and who they are. They need to be weeded out. IMO, we have too many sexual predators and Muslim terrorist sympathizers in Congress. If we didn’t have some, why do we have a tax payer funded, sex slush fund to pay off victims harrassed and worse?
I’d also like to see what my tax dollars have been paying for –
victims
crime
offender
date
amounts paid.
Why can’t we SEE who is doing what with OUR money? I’d also like to see WHO was in Jeffrey Epstein’s little black book. I’d put money on it that too many of our politicians were his customers besides the Clinton’s. The FBI has that book and notice how QUIET they are… Epstein did NOT commit suicide…. Baden, a respected pathologist also begs to differ on a suicide ruling.

And next week the ignorant libturds will be blaming Trump when a convicted terrorist gets a job with TSA. I can’t comprehend why anyone with a functioning brain cell would want a criminal in any LEO or authoritative position in the USA!!!! But then again there must be millions because they vote muslims into offices everyday. Just can’t fix STUPID with moronic libturds!

When Obama “early retired” 114 upper military in 2014 and those at the Pentagon….he replaced many of them with MEs…..GW Bush put a lot of them in our positions of power in so many government agencies….

I can understand running on a platform promising to give free stuff to everybody but why confuse people by inviting terrorists to the party. The LibTards are truly idiots to vote for these people. .

We need to be more concerned about TDS than the Wuhan Flu.
These 194 Quislings just voted ~against~ the legitimate interests of every single American Citizen.
When does this become Treasonous? How many times do they have to vote ~against~ Citizens and for those who would do America and Americans harm before they get voted out of office?

Does anyone know what they said to justify their vote? How come that is not on Dobbs, Tucker, Hannity?

Does what they say even matter?
There is no rational justification for these actions.

We pay their salaries………..we have a right to know how, why, and when they do things.
And since it is Dimms…I didn’t expect “rational”…just something to mock them with. LOL

You can follow votes through Govtrack. It might take a while for most people to get up to speed on how the shenanigans work. All during the Obama years I could tell how the Republicans managed to look like they were opposing him for awhile, yet giving him everything he wanted in the end.

Unbelievable. The Democrats are enemies of this nation. It is so clear what muslims are doing. Why do they have blinders over their eyes?

That’s because they are hoping for another “9/11” attack…..like Obama said: “In Chaos, there is opportunity.” They believe it and they use it.
I have not been on a plane since 9/11 because I keep seeing stories like this…and hearing about how “ME” workers have been caught doing things to planes….the stories disappear pretty quickly.
