So 55% of house Democrats would not vote "YES" on a resolution honoring Chartlie Kirk. Some voted "present", some recorded "Not Voting" and some voted "No".

This should become a big deal in the run up to the midterm elections.
FCK, what makes him so special?

Why did they hold a moment (8 min 46 sec) of silence and take a knee for a drug dealer?

He'd certainly feel more affinity with Candace Owens or Marco Rubio than most of the white men on your side of the aisle.

I feel for the man’s family but in my opinion he’s not the hero that some are trying to portray him as. He’s certainly not a christian martyr as some evangelical preachers are labeling him.

If some in congress don’t want to support him with a congressional resolution I don’t have a problem with that.

But ICU is right, I’m sure the opposition are already coming up with ways to politicize this vote and will make it a position piece for the midterm elections.
