IT DOESN'T GET LOWER THAN THIS:  Members of Congress's so-called "Squad" hit rock bottom.  From Fox: 

Two members of progressive group "the Squad" were the only Democrats to vote against a resolution that memorialized police officers killed in the line of duty and expressed condolences to their loved ones.

During a vote Monday recognizing National Police Week, Reps. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., and Cori Bush, D-Mo., uttered the only nays heard from the House floor as the chamber voted on the pro-law enforcement resolution.

The resolution, which passed with unanimous support from Republicans and nearly all Democrats, amended H.Res. 363 title to read: "Resolution memorializing law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty." 

Its passing honored "the 556 law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty, including 224 officers killed in 2022, as well as 332 officers killed in previous years whose stories were recovered during 2022," while also ensuring police are equipped with the resources and training necessary to keeping communities safe.

The amendment opposed by the Democrats expressed "unwavering support" for law enforcement officers and offered "condolences and solemn appreciation" for the loved ones of lost officers.

"Why did Cori Bush and Rashida Tlaib just vote against a simple resolution to honor law enforcement officers during National Police Week?" Rep. Troy Nehls, R-Texas., posted on Twitter after the vote.The resolution vowed that the House of Representatives would acknowledge "that police officers and other law enforcement personnel, especially those who have made the ultimate sacrifice, should be remembered and honored," and recognized as heroes.

Several representatives in the "Squad" have a history of anti-police rhetoric. But fellow original members Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., all voted in favor of the resolution. 

COMMENT:  Bush and Tlaib have to be two of the worst representatives in recent memory.  Is there no one who could defeat them in their Congressional districts?  I'll bet there is, and maybe some brave Republicans should step up, get into the race, and start the process of flipping those districts, if possible. Never give up, and never stop trying.  I'll bet that many of of these losers' constituents feel the same way about them that we do.  But the opposition has to be led.
