Many of the Democrats in the modern party are what we might call “special,” in that their outrageous deeds and statements often defy the imagination. “The border is secure,” they told us in lockstep throughout Joe Biden’s presidency. “California’s policies are working,” Gov. Gavin Newsom tells us almost daily. “We can afford everything,” to paraphrase democrat socialist NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
On Friday, Squad members joined up with dozens of other Dems to vote against a resolution dubbing Iran the world’s largest state sponsor of terror. That’s like saying, “I refuse to vote for a bill declaring the sky is blue.”
I mean, is this the definition of insanity?
Dozens of Democrats have voted against a nonbinding resolution in the House that reaffirms Iran as the "largest state sponsor of terrorism."
The resolution, put forward by Rep. Brian Mast, R-Fla., passed by a 372-53 vote on Thursday, with all those voting no being Democrats...
Among those who voted against the measure were all the members of the "Squad," such as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., and Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.
Despite the efforts of these IQ-challenged congresscritters, the measure passed anyway by a vote of 372-53:
🚨 BREAKING: the House overwhelmingly approves Chairman @RepBrianMast’s bill reaffirming Iran remains the largest state sponsor of terrorism.

There's no doubt that Iran has posed imminent threats on Americans for 47 years. @POTUS is absolutely right to eliminate that threat. pic.twitter.com/9xXelySNqI

Here are the Mensa candidates who couldn’t even muster up the honesty to simply affirm a known fact, that Iran has been funding and supporting Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthis, its own IRGC, and presumably other terror outfits for decades. No one that I’ve heard of has seriously questioned that they’re the top terrorism sponsor on the globe, probably in history.
NEW: 53 (!!!) House Democrats just voted against a non-binding resolution that reaffirms Iran as the largest state sponsor of terrorism. Per colleague @kellyfphares, they include:

Beyer
Bonamici
Carson
Casar
Castro (TX)
Clarke (NY)
Cohen
Davis (IL)
Dexter
Doggett
Evans (PA)…
The list continues:
Fletcher, Foushee, Frost, Garcia (CA), García (IL), Green, Al (TX), Grijalva, Hoyle (OR), Huffman, Jacobs, Jayapal, Johnson (GA), Kelly (IL), Khanna, Krishnamoorthi, Lee (PA), McBride, McGarvey, McGovern, McIver, Menefee, Menendez, Moore (WI), Ocasio-Cortez, Omar, Pingree, Pocan, Pressley, Ramirez, Randall, Rivas, Sánchez, Schakowsky, Simon, Takano, Tlaib, Trahan, Underwood, Velázquez, Waters, Watson Coleman, Williams (GA)
Two Democrats, meanwhile, pulled that most spineless move, voting “present.” It seriously baffles me how that duo will presumably get out of bed tomorrow, look in the mirror, and think they qualify as serious human beings. One thing no one has ever accused the modern leftist of, though, is having much self-awareness.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt knows exactly what’s happening: their brains are officially melting.
Just 3 years ago, a resolution condemning the terrorist Iranian regime passed the House by a vote of 420-1.

Now 53 House Democrats just refused to reaffirm that Iran remains the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism.

Editor's Note: For decades, former presidents have been all talk and no action. Now, Donald Trump is eliminating the threat from Iran once and for all.
