All’s Quiet on the Leftward Front

May 6, 2024

POLITICO recently reported on the numerous House Democrats who have yet to say anything about the recent indictment of Rep. Henry Cuellar (TX-28) despite having quite a bit to say about former Rep. Santos. 

Per POLITICO, “The argument is simple, from their view: Republicans moved to clean house and remove a member of their own party — why won’t Democrats? 

As a reminder, Rep. Chris Deluzio had this to say about Rep. Santos: “The House Ethics Committee report was crystal clear: George Santos broke the law and cannot be trusted to serve in Congress. So I solemnly joined colleagues from both parties today to expel Mr. Santos from the U.S. House of Representatives.”

And here is what he said about Rep. Cueller’s recent indictment: *crickets* 

“The House Democrats’ official slogan is ‘people over politics.’ Are they going to subscribe to that or no? Will Chris Deluzio call on Rep. Cuellar to resign?” – NRCC Spokesman Mike Marinella
