Rep. Janelle Bynum does "Eensy Beensy Spider" in Congress |
Rep. Janelle Bynum (D-OR) attacked the Border Bill in which dozens of her Democrat colleagues voted for, which makes her look out of touch with the people she pretends to represent. The congresswoman said the bill is about "fearmongering" and compared it to "The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850," to which it has nothing whatsoever in common.
What Bynum was going against was legislation aiming to make it a federal crime to attempt to evade law enforcement within 100 miles of the border. To their credit, and perhaps their political futures, 50 of her Democrat colleagues voted in favor of the bill.
"I urge my colleagues to oppose H.R. 35. Let’s call this bill what it is: fearmongering dressed up as officer safety," the not so bright congresswoman said last week, about the bill named after late Border Patrol Agent Raul Gonzalez, who died in a pursuit in 2022, as reported by Fox News.
House Resolution 35 would make individuals convicted of "intentionally fleeing" law enforcement in a vehicle subject to up to two years in prison and fines. If the police chase results in a death, the individual could face up to life imprisonment under the legislation, and potentially face deportation if the person involved is in the country illegally.
"This bill echoes one of the darkest chapters in our nation’s history, 'The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850.' Just like that shameful law, H.R. 35 forces local authorities and encourages the deputizing of randos to do the federal government’s work, punishing them if they refuse. Back then, it was hunting people down who dared to seek freedom. Today, it’s forcing local police to become federal enforcers," the dolt continued in her House floor speech.
Regardless, the bill passed 264-155, with 50 Democrats voting in favor, including a handful in border states. The legislation is now in the hands of the Senate, where Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is heading up the proposal.
"This bill delivers a clear message to anyone who endangers our community that they will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law," Rep. Juan Ciscomani, (R-AZ) said about the legislation he is sponsoring.
Police pursuits near the border are a frequent site as smugglers hope to evade law enforcement. Under the Trump administration, there has been an across-the-board crackdown on border and immigration policies, including sending in the military to the border as well as deportation raids throughout the country.
Bynum started in Congress last month, as she barely defeated former Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer in November. Chavez-DeRemer is now President Donald Trump’s nominee to serve as Labor secretary and Bynum remains alone in the jasmine of her mind.
"Janelle Bynum's unglued comments reinforced she's hellbent on pursuing a dangerous anti-police officer crusade in Congress. Bynum’s extremist vote siding with cartel terrorists over Border Patrol puts Oregonians in danger," National Republican Campaign Committee spokesman Ben Petersen said in a statement.
