Still silent on Gaetz though. It seems Sex crimes is only an issue when it comes to the side of the aisle you align yourself with. Was this a single issue bill? I highly doubt it

If Gaetz did anything criminal, the DoJ would be on him like stink on shit. With your self-proclaimed astute critical thinking skills, I’d have thought that would be obvious to you. Okay, not really.

Because of your non-answer, I’ll add you to the pro-child rapist list.

Well I’m not a “dem” so I don’t need to answer your absurd question. I happen to realize the truth that most politicians on both sides are complete dirtballs. How about you answer my question… was this a single issue bill or a vote on a lot of difffeent things and this was one of them?

So you chose to ignore the house ethics report on gaetz, good deal. In case you weren’t aware, banging an underage girl is a sex crime as well as paying for sex, but ya know he’s on your side so all is well. Only place that could pursue criminal charges is the local police jurisdiction in Florida. Gee I wonder why they wouldn’t choose to do that? That’s a mystery.

Nice to see Justin Trudeau is resigning.

Was it a single vote on only this specific issue or was in buried in a larger legislative bill? If they voted against that specific issue bill than that is totally disgraceful. If it was buried in a larger legislative bill, then context as to what was also in the bill is needed.

Stand alone bill. Actually happened a few months ago.

Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act

This bill establishes certain criminal grounds for making non-U.S. nationals (aliens under federal law) inadmissible and expands the crimes for which a non-U.S. national is deportable.

First, the bill establishes that a non-U.S. national is inadmissible if the individual has admitted to or is convicted of acts constituting the essential elements of stalking, child abuse, child neglect, child abandonment, a sex offense, conspiracy to commit a sex offense, a violation of certain protection orders, and domestic violence (including physical or sexual abuse or a pattern of coercive behavior when it occurs within certain close relationships).

Next, the bill establishes additional grounds for deportation. Under current law, a non-U.S. national is deportable for certain criminal convictions, including domestic violence, stalking, and child abuse. The bill makes any sex offense (including crimes against minors) or conspiracy to commit a sex offense a basis for deportation. The bill also expands the domestic violence crimes that make a non-U.S. national deportable to include physical or sexual abuse or a pattern of coercive behavior when it occurs within certain close

Awesome for Canadians. Ireland and Britain need to overthrow their authoritarian gov'ts as well.
