After
voting to shut down the Department of Homeland Security — knowing ICE is fully
funded but agencies like FEMA, the Coast Guard,
and TSA would lose funding — Democrats flew to the Munich Security
Conference.
This is
how Democrats represented America on the world stage:
- Arizona Senator
Mark
Kelly criticized the U.S. and said it was
"depressing" having to attend a completely optional
event.
- California Rep.
Sara
Jacobs suggested the U.S. is as bad as the Sahel: “At this
moment it feels very hard for us to...lecture them about human
rights...”
- California Governor
Gavin
Newsom suggested law enforcement officers were
"Nazis": "Masked men, secret police, something familiar
in Germany."
- Michigan Senator
Elissa
Slotkin seemingly shamed Americans: "When will the American
people feel like the issues of Democracy are actually not someone
else's issues..."
- Hillary
Clinton suggested that Americans were intolerant.
While
Democrats were overseas during a partial government shutdown that they
voted for, hardworking Americans were at home concerned about how they
will make next
month's rent.
