Democrat Chair Of House Homeland Security Committee Wants Josh Hawley And Ted Cruz On The Terrorist No-Fly List
The Federalist ^ | 1/12/2021 | Evita Duffy

The Democrat chair of the U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security wants Republican Sen. Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley put on the federal “No Fly” list due to the “actions they participated in” when the U.S. Capitol was ransacked by Trump supporters on Jan. 6.

When asked by SiriusXM host Joe Madison whether the no-fly sanction should be applied if Cruz and Hawley are found liable for the capitol unrest, House Homeland Security Committee Chair Rep. Bennie G. Thompson said, “There’s no question about it.”

“There’s no exemption for being put on the no-fly list,” said Thompson. “Even a member of Congress that commits a crime, you know, they’re expelled from the body. There are ethics charges that can be brought against those individuals. And people are looking at all of this.”

Cruz and Hawley did not participate in any violent “actions.” The senators have both publicly condemned any rioting that occurred on Jan. 6. Democrats are angry because Hawley and Cruz led a legal objection to counting some Electoral College votes. For wanting to ensure the integrity of U.S. elections, Democrats are calling for the senators to resign or be removed from office.

The Democrats and their followers are making their desire clear: they wish to establish a totalitarian state in which all dissenters are suppressed and persecuted.

They'll have trouble putting Cruz and Hawley on the No-Fly list.

But millions of other peaceful Trump supporters and others who do not support election fraud, will not be as successful.

That is exactly what they are doing on purpose. They are the ones trying to incite violence, so they can pounce with the rest of their infringement of our remaining freedom. If they don’t incite violence, they will take it as a sign that no one will fight back if they do it anyway. Win-win for them.

My exact thought. Please do it. Unless politicians, the ones ostensibly on our side feel pain, nothing will change.

These people are effing certifiable. They best squelch this nonsense, or they just might discover they’re not untouchable.

Just heard members of congress supposedly have contracted covid after their duck and cover escapade. Seriously? But they were wearing masks right?.....they should have just sought shelter in the arms of a blm riot where they would have miraculously received a pardon from the chinese virus.

What motivates our leftists to such brazen tyrannical actions?

Power hunger?
Fear of their crimes getting exposed?
Pride?
Evil?

And what did they do?

They used the elector ratification proceedings to question the integrity of our election system!!!

This is where we are at. Criminalizing constitutional legislative procedure.

Don’t listen to their words. Judge them by their actions.
These democrats want to create a fascist police state that attacks politicians who disagree with them.
