In a surprise announcement today, Representative Rashida Tlaib (R-MI) has announced she is switching from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party because it's more in line with her core value of defunding the police. Her statement reads in part:

"After recent revelations it's actually the Republicans calling for the defunding of police, I have decided, after much deliberation, to switch parties. The Republicans fall more in line with my core values of defunding the police, DHS,CPB and ICE."

"The icing on the cake was when Jen Psaki confirmed at her press briefing it was in fact Republicans at the forefront of this movement."

"It hurts from the standpoint I've been a staunch Democrat all my life but after trying for years to get Democrats to defund, I find it was the opposition all along who was pushing my viewpoint."

"I'm willing to become a squad of one to lead the charge to enact this noble cause. I hope my new ally, Mitch McConnell, will give me his full support.

In other news, a football field as big as an asteroid was found on the earth’s surface, astronomers say we can expect close calls like this “on a regular basis.” And it was the hottest month in recorded history everywhere, or your thermometer will be confiscated.

Oh, give me a break! She knows full well that the republicans aren’t in favor of defunding ANY of those groups, and the reason they wouldn’t back the democrats bill that included it , is because it included it!
The democrats have discovered Americans are against defunding them, so now they’re trying to make republicans wear that dirty diaper.

I thought for a second that maybe Biden bowing down before the Israeli president was more than she could take. She should at least have to answer some questions about that. Good Babylon Bee tier stuff.

If this is believed by her democrats buds in Congress, she may be asking for a H. Clinton intervention.
