Seven House Democrats voted in favor of a $64.4 billion bill to advance a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spending measure that includes about $10 billion for ICE. The votes came during a markup of the DHS appropriations bill, with Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky casting the lone Republican vote against the funding, which passed 220-207 and will fund ICE and FEMA through September 30.

The seven Democrats who voted alongside the majority of Republicans to push forward the bill are Representatives

  • Tom Suozzi (New York),
  • Henry Cuellar (Texas),
  • Don Davis (North Carolina),
  • Laura Gillen (New York),
  • Jared Golden (Maine),
  • Vicente Gonzalez (Texas),
  • Marie Glusenkamp Perez (Washington).

But... they gave us a candy! Of course we had to give in and vote with them!

The US Democrats have ab extremely well deserved reputation for being spineless idiots but I'm amazed that Nazi Germany is being born and they just keep at it.

Is it required to be a special class of idiot to become a member of that club?

Republicans just require you're dumb, racist, narcissistic, psychopathic and egocentric, Democrats require dumb and spineless
