Ron Filipkowski is a left-wing Twitter lawyer. He claims to be a former federal prosecutor so we all know he’s a power liar. [12]
Within the midst of the gorgeous collapse of Afghanistan [13] weeks after Biden promised America such a factor was unimaginable, [14] the left within the media are struggling responsible the correct for the implications of their insurance policies.
That is understandably robust to do whenever you management the White Home and each chambers of the federal Legislature, however alas their sophistry is aware of no bounds or limits.
Right here’s what Filipkowski has to say as a technique to blame Republicans: [1]
Now clearly the meme removes any context or clarification as to why these 16 selected to oppose the related invoice.
The related invoice was HB 3985 and it was voted out of the Home by a vote of 407-16 on July 22, 2021.[2][15] The invoice’s sponsor was Jason Crow, a Democrat from Colorado. Crow had one other invoice, HB 3385, that will have waived the medical requirement for Afghanis in search of refuge in America in order that their functions may move by way of quicker. [3]
HB 3385/waiving medical necessities, was acquired within the Senate on July twelfth and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary. The Chair of that committee is Democrat Dick Durbin. [4]
HB 3985, the one which acquired overwhelming assist within the Home, was acquired within the Senate and was by no means even referred to Committee. The Senate Majority Chief is Chuck Schumer. [5] The Senate Majority Chief controls and units the agenda.
The Democrat management within the Senate did nothing on each of those payments.

Our leftist insurance policies simply ruined and collapsed Afghanistan, fast — how will we blame the approaching executions on this Congresswoman from Colorado whose Twitter feed we hate?
Within the meantime, the Senate has been performing some nonsense payments.
The Senate is in session. [6] Since each payments have been handed, the Senate has been very busy making it a prison offense to commerce in Indian beads, a invoice which handed on July 28. [7] The Senate additionally made certain to improve the reporting necessities for marketing campaign finance, to assist journalists know which donors to harass for donating to a sure politician, PAC or marketing campaign, a invoice which handed on August 7. [8]
Priorities!
These payments handed throughout a interval when Senate management may have accomplished one thing, something, to assist Afghani refugees. They may have taken any steps vital to guard People attempting to flee Afghanistan. However Indian beads have been extra necessary.
And hey, I’m certain these payments have been actually necessary and all, however doing these issues meant that there wasn’t any time to get round to the pesky Afghani translators, amongst others.

Chuck Schumer really made this evaluation: [These refugees’ lives < Criminalizing selling Indian beads]
Rep. Crow really received a invoice for waiving nationwide park charges for veterans additional alongside within the Democrat legislature quicker than he did caring for Afghani translators. [9] Rep. Crow was additionally so unserious in regards to the plight of the Afghanis that he labored on and sponsored a invoice two weeks in the past to arrange a grant program for electrical autos in ‘environmental justice communities.’ [10]
Filipkowski is a shameless partisan. His meme is taking issues out of context, and denying the themes an opportunity to clarify their vote, importing to them the worst motives attainable. It’s dishonest and a misrepresentation. It then blames the powerless, since their capability to defeat the invoice was non-existent, they usually don’t management the Home or Senate agenda. And people who do management each agendas, and who had the facility to maneuver these payments alongside to the President, are ignored as to their culpability.
So, whereas the vote rely is at the least correct, it fully omits any rationale or reasoning that the 16 Republicans might need had in opposing HB 3985. And if these 16 are at fault for the straightforward act of voting in opposition to the invoice because it was being heard, a 15 minute course of, [11] then actually the Senate is much more at fault for failing to behave on one thing that had such an enormous mandate and was so well timed.
RATING: Essentially Dishonest.
