Democrats opposed the bill, arguing that Puerto Rico is still recovering from Hurricane Maria and needs additional federal aid to get back on its feet.The Senate Democrats voted it down and used it as leverage against Senate Republicans, the point is again both sides play the same game and partisan hacks only acknowledge that only the other side does it. Democrats and Republicans put party over people all the time. Partisan nuts do the same.
The Moron Maggot thinks being a Congressman is the same as being a Governor.As a freshman congressman in 2013, Ron DeSantis was unambiguous: A federal bailout for the New York region after Hurricane Sandy was an irresponsible boondoggle, a symbol of the “put it on the credit card mentality” he had come to Washington to oppose.
“I sympathize with the victims,” he said. But his answer was no.
Nearly a decade later, as his state confronts the devastation and costly destruction wrought by Hurricane Ian, Mr. DeSantis is appealing to the nation’s better angels — and betting on its short memory.
The present circumstances have inspired a less swaggering posture toward a leader whom Mr. DeSantis has long called “Brandon” as a recurring troll, aimed at the man he might like to succeed. “Dear Mr. President,” the governor’s request for a major disaster declaration and federal assistance began on Wednesday.
“Ironically,” said David Jolly, a former Republican congressman from Florida, “there’s nobody in America that Ron DeSantis needs more than Joe Biden.”
Some Northeastern lawmakers, including Republicans, have not forgotten how Mr. DeSantis and some of his peers responded when the New York area was under duress. “Year after year, we had given them billions of dollars,” said Peter King, a former Republican congressman from Long Island, alluding to aid packages for Southern states and calling the resistance to Sandy relief his angriest moment in office. “Every one of them comes to New York to raise money. They either go to the Hamptons or they go to Manhattan. And both areas were devastated by Sandy.”

It has gotten to the point where Asylum Claims mean next-to-nothing anymore.In your mind but not under the law.
Those processed and given an asylum hearing are by definition not illegal.
Like I said. In your mind.It has gotten to the point where Asylum Claims mean next-to-nothing anymore.
Damned-near anyone who crosses the border nowadays knows to make the claim, even though a very high percentage are denied.
The claim has been overworked and abused and needs to be "reformed".
Want to claim asylum? Fine. Do it from the Mexican side of the border and wait there until we adjudicate it.
Cross the border without our permission and we're gonna ship your a$$ back across the border again.
Do it a second time and we throw your a$$ in jail.
Do it a third time and we throw your a$$ in jail for a very LONG time... perhaps at hard labor.
The law allows for that as well.
And in instances where it does not at present - or at times such as now when it's not enforced - it soon will be.
With a vengeance.
Enough of this Illegal Alien -loving bull$hit.
I'll have you know I did NOT vote for Obama.And, you are a retard. A retard who voted for a racist grifter.
Good. Now, we are all caught up.

So what? Did the Dems send the money? Yes or No?They delayed it. Did Congress delay or not send aid for Sandy?
Here is aid Democrats voted down in 2019: Ernst, Grassley blast Democrats for voting down disaster aid bill
Sure. Same challenge to you as to the other retards. Prove it. Prove that NY Sandy Relief bill was loaded with pork. Go.I doubt the Thread starter never heard or was explained as to the meaning
of " hindsight being 20/20 " .Well DeSantis operated in foresight mode.
He turned out to be spot-on.His hesitancy was warranted.
Because the Sandy Relief bill was loaded with pork.Very over the top
and rewarding a region based on Political will.New York is run by the
Democrats and has been for years.Starting with Cuomo and going back to
David Patterson { 2008-2010 } while serving out Eliot Spitzer's { 2007-2008 }
where he resigned under a cloud of scandal.
Before Spitzer New York had the Good Governance of George Pataki {1995-2006}
as Governor as well fellow Republican Rudy Giuliani as Mayor of N.Y.city.
So go ahead and make yer case.It's doesn't rise to the level of
" wet behind the ears ".
So Sayeth Me.
Democrat's and Republican's put party over the other sides people or over the opposing sides people all of the time.The Senate Democrats voted it down and used it as leverage against Senate Republicans, the point is again both sides play the same game and partisan hacks only acknowledge that only the other side does it. Democrats and Republicans put party over people all the time. Partisan nuts do the same.
Yeah that fact is still making patriotic American's scratch their head's.And yet, he still won. Twice. Now, who's a retard?

It's already been proven multiple times in this thread, where were you ?Sure. Same challenge to you as to the other retards. Prove it. Prove that NY Sandy Relief bill was loaded with pork. Go.
Sandy Hook also passed. I proved my point.So what? Did the Dems send the money? Yes or No?
Now, compare that with the jr Douchebag from Florida and his actions. Go.
It was widely reported and made a big deal over for months.Sure. Same challenge to you as to the other retards. Prove it. Prove that NY Sandy Relief bill was loaded with pork. Go.
Liar. It wasn't the aid to the people in need. It was the political payoff added to the bill for Democrat cronyism.
Unfortunately, you fucking morons don't bother to think for yourselves or question critically anything done by your masters.
LOL No link? Why are you afraid of posting the link? Did you think I won't notice?It was widely reported and made a big deal over for months.
- Sandy Relief Bill Loaded With Pork- { Jan.24,2013 }
Tampa Bay Times
" More than $ 33 Billion of the bill is nothing but pure pork.
And of course there is no offset reduction in spending elsewhere
to cover the cost of this bill.The bill allocates Billions to dozens of
Federal agencies,including the National Park Service,The Smithsonian,
Immigration and Customes enforcement,the Secret Service,The Federal
Aviation Administration and the National Oceanic And Atmospheric Adm.
Of the 180 No Votes all but one was Republican.
Only one democrat voted Against.
