Democrats were calling for Donald Trump's impeachment before he was even inaugurated — that's how much of a honeymoon period he got. If memory serves, before "Russian collusion" completely took over the narrative, one of Trump's first "scandals" as president was his "Muslim travel ban." Actually, it was a ban from travel from countries that were known terrorist hot spots — and designated as such by the Obama administration. Plenty of Muslim countries weren't on the list but never mind that fact.
Rep. Ted Lieu has read a disturbing report in The Daily Beast about a bill to prevent Palestinians from entering the United States. Lieu would probably prefer the U.S. take in refugees from Gaza.
This repugnant bill is Trump’s Muslim Ban on steroids. It wrongfully holds an entire class of people accountable for the actions of a foreign terrorist group. This unAmerican thinking led to the tragic internment of people of Japanese ancestry. We shouldn’t make the same mistake. https://t.co/RsAXWoRgUN

There was no Muslim ban.

You are repugnant and should be primaried.

Were Egypt or Indonesia on that list of countries? No. Well it wasn't much of a Muslim ban was it? So you're just making stuff up as usual. Facts aren't on your side so you resort to lies.

No, it's actually common sense. We don't need Hamas beheading babies here. You'd probably like it as a reason to give more money to defense contractors to whom all of you dipshits are beholden.

Was it repugnant when @BarackObama did it?
— Fed Up Kentuckian (@FedUpKentuckian) November 4, 2023
That's IMPOSSIBLE since Trump never had a Muslim Ban.

Ted Lieu wants to allow Hamas terrorists into the US.

Guess what? They’re already here.
One is in Congress and her name is Rashida Tlaib.
It is not repugnant to protect Americans from potential harm. It is not un-American at all, but quite the opposite. People who come from places where life is not regarded as sacred do not belong in the USA.

I stopped reading where you first lied. That was 7 words into it.

You want results or feelings not hurt ?

No one is interning them. Stop your damn lies.

Whenever I wonder how Congress has such a low approval rating, all I have to do is think of Ted. They just don't come any more useless than this one.

Is Lieu at all concerned with the crisis at the southern border? He seems perfectly happy with unvetted migrants from all over the world just walking in and asking for asylum.
