Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) said Thursday she voted against a measure this week creating a bipartisan select committee on the security, economic, and technological challenges posed to the U.S. by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) because it will “embolden anti-Asian rhetoric and hate.”
“I voted ‘no’ because, again, it’s a — it’s a — another sham effort here, it’s really clear that this is just a committee that would further embolden anti-Asian rhetoric and hate and put lives at risk,” Pressley told CNN. […]
Pressley, a leftist member of the so-called “squad,” was one of 65 Democrats to vote against the resolution creating the “Select Committee on the Strategic Competition between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party.” Another 146 of her party colleagues voted with 219 Republicans to pass it.
Asked if she thought the 146 Democrats who voted in favor were wrong, she replied, “we just see it differently.” […]
Of note was a “yes” vote from Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), an outspoken critic of the CCP’s treatment of minority Muslim Uyghurs in Xinjiang, which the Biden and Trump administrations determined constitutes genocide and crimes against humanity.
In contrast, Omar’s fellow “Squad” members — Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.), Rashida Tlaib (Mich.), Jamaal Bowman (N.Y.), Cori Bush (Mo.), Pressley, and freshmen newcomers Summer Lee (Pa.) and Greg Casar (Texas) — all opposed the measure. …

Lock her up for sedition.
Nothing to do with being anti-Asian. It’s about being anti-Communist. That’s her real concern.
Of course, you’re not gonna hear about anti-communist measures being taken...by another COMMUNIST! This witch is a commie through and through, yet the brain dead voted her in, to the detriment of others.
“We Don’t Need This Select Committee’ on Chinese Communist Party”
Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) had a Chinese spy as her chauffeur.
Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has family and business ties with people associated with the Chinese Communist Party.
Representative Eric Swalwell (D-CA) slept with a Chinese spy.
President Biden and his family having business dealings with the Communist Chinese Party.
Those are the ones we know about.
Pressley IS a Communist like AOC and the other dim-witted Squad members.
Investigate Pressly first.
I think you have succinctly identified the reason Mizz Pressley objects to the committee.
WHAT????
That looks like a DUDE!
There was a reason I left that out.
She wasn’t too much better looking with the hair either.
Sounds like the Big Guy is sending 10% of HIS 10% to her.
What exactly has happens to America? I’m shocked to see what your Congress has come to! A bald-domed shaven-headed female of fiercely savage appearance in the ruling class of the most powerful civilization on Earth! This is mind-boggling. The nation doesn’t stand a chance under such “leaders”. Forget that she’s pro-Communist, why aren’t you guys electing genteel, well-educated leaders who actually look like Western leaders as opposed to African tribals circa 1880? Good Lord.
REP. AYANNA PRESSLEY SAYS SHE AVOIDED CAPITOL SAFE ROOM DUE TO WHITE SUPREMACIST CONGRESS MEMBERS
By Derek Major
January 14, 2021Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D) said she avoided the safe room during the Capitol riot last week, but it had little to do with the coronavirus. Pressley explained why she didn’t head to the safe room on Jan. 12 on Twitter. The Squad member refused based on her opinion that some lawmakers hiding in the room were just as dangerous as the rioters who broke into the Capitol.
How much did the Chinese pay her to vote for them?
Kind of Ironic.
(Or something.)
The only race of people that seem to be beating and killing asians just because of their race is the race of which Miz Pressley is.
Most of the rest of us pretty much judge them by the content of their character, or whether they are enemies of the United States.
The Omar vote is interesting.
