Democrat Backtracks After Voting To Give ICE $10 Billion

"I hear the anger from my constituents, and I take responsibility for that," moderate Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-N.Y.) said on Monday.

Saying you failed and apologizing now is worthless.

Primary this guy and the other six that voted for this. None of these guys are people that we should be tolerating in the Democratic party with this kind of morality, callousness for human life, and such short sighted vision.

    Ugh. This DINO is talking out of both sides of his mouth. Let me explain.

    So, Democratic voters have some spine when it comes to the integrity of their representatives. There, an apology is the bare minimum one can do to acknowledge a bad decision or take on something. In past years, that might have actually worked, but I think things are changing.

    Meanwhile the Republicans have demonstrated that acting in accordance with party values - hierarchy, racism, brute force - is all that matters. Say whatever you want and lie your pants off since “the Democrats are probably cheating just as bad, and we’re the chosen people to lead anyway.” Being this duplicitous is a-okay on team R.

    So what we have is someone that is trying to keep his seat cozy, both through lip-service to the left and voting like a right-winger at the same time.
