58 House Democrats just voted against a simple resolution honoring the life of Charlie Kirk, another 38 voted present, and 22 refused to vote at all. That means the majority of House Democrats refused to vote for a resolution that condemns political violence and extends condolence to Kirk’s family.

And what was the press secretary speaking about?

You're wrong. Check your facts. She was speaking about those who didn't vote for the resolution

 

[Yarddog]

And what was the press secretary speaking about?

The resolution which was a week later. Several Democrats voted against the resolution for the own reasons.

I'm glad they refused to vote for the resolution. He shouldn't be honored by Democrats or Christians. Anyone who said that Joe Biden should be executed should not be honored. They would have voted on a resolution against political violence, which they had already done.

Yes, I did. I said that she was talking about a resolution a week after the Democrats condemned the murder. BUT, she condemned Democrats for voting against the resolution which she said condemned violence, but they had already condemned the murder.

The resolution meant to honor Kirk's legacy which some Democrats refused to do because parts of his legacy condemned Democrats.

I would say nice try but it’s not even that good. You need to stop now. You just keep digging a deeper hole
