Despite four terror attacks on American soil in the last month, it seems Democrats have no interest in protecting Americans from the Islamist terrorists they allowed to enter the country both during and before the Biden administration.

Last week, it looked as if Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin had a sudden attack of conscience after Hezbollah-linked Mohamad Ghazali, a Lebanese national who lived in Dearborn, drove his vehicle into the Temple Israel Synagogue in West Bloomfield. That vehicle was laden with fireworks and flammable liquid and caught fire; Ghazali was confronted by armed security, too, and ended up taking his own life without harming a single Jewish child.
During a press conference, Slotkin — who voted to keep the Department of Homeland shut down while the terrorist attack was unfolding in her state — told the media, “A ton of DHS folks, CBP, so they are on the call and they are doing their jobs. Certainly, we need to fund the Department of Homeland Security, and we need, in my view, to cut away all the conversation on ICE, which is its own conversation, from all the core missions of the Department of Homeland Security.”
But something changed in the last week, because Slotkin just blocked a bill to fund DHS for two weeks so workers could get back pay and the agency could be funded while negotiations continued.

Just now on the Senate floor:
Senator Moreno (R-OH) just tried to pass a bill funding DHS (all of it) for 2 weeks to allow workers to get back pay now and fund the agency while negotiations continue. Sen Slotkin (D-MI) objected.
THEN… Sen Slotkin (D-MI) tried to pass a bill…

This is exactly what Slotkin said she wanted a week ago, when an Islamic terrorist tried to kill Jewish children in her state.
Slotkin, at a press conference last week following a jihadist homeland terror attack in her state, said our Homeland Security agency should be funded. She’s still voting against it and objecting to it on the Senate floor. https://t.co/ONdwKiuMET

Democrats have no intention of funding DHS or protecting Americans.
This is so stupid.
Pay these people. https://t.co/rVbzwD5pJF

The suffering is the point and this wasn’t the first time Democrats used Americans’ suffering for political gain. During the shutdown last fall, multiple Democrats said they planned to use the pain caused by the Schumer Shutdown as leverage to get their way. It shows us all exactly how Democrats feel about us. And not too long ago, Hawaii Senator Brian Schatz, a Democrat, said his party was “serene” amid this current government shutdown.

Important to remember that this all started when House Republicans passed a negotiated bipartisan DHS spending bill with Democrat votes…and then Senate Democrats blew it up because two leftists committed seppuku by ICE. https://t.co/kb9F5d2UAL

At the encouragement of Democrats like Minnesota Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan, who told Leftists to “put your bodies on the line” to protect criminal illegal aliens from ICE.
It is painfully and alarmingly obvious that the Democratic Party stands not only with illegal immigrants but also with turning a blind eye to terrorists.
