Members of “The Squad” marked Memorial Day in the same clueless fashion that has marked their lamentable tenure in Congress.
On a day when America solemnly honored those who have paid the ultimate price to preserve freedom for all, the far-left Democrats took to social media to hijack the occasion as a vehicle to promote their progressive socialist agenda but only managed to showcase their own ignorance.
In a post to X, BLM activist and walking ethics violation Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) got Memorial Day and Veteran’s Day mixed up, a prime example of how much DEI has dumbed down the legislative body.
“This #MemorialDay & every day, we honor our veterans in St. Louis,” she wrote. “We must invest in universal health care, affordable housing, comprehensive mental health services, and educational &; economic opportunities for our veterans as we work to build a world free of war and violence.”
The reaction from X users was savage, but she had it coming.
Bush’s cohort, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) also got her holidays mixed up.

Both of them soon deleted their embarrassing tweets, a rare instance of humility from the yappy leftist lawmakers.
Ilhan Omar also deleted her tweet where she confused Veterans Day with Memorial Day. I guess she realized you can’t give jobs and housing to dead servicemembers who gave their lives for our country. pic.twitter.com/XcVcUoCzBP

Other Memorial Day messages from “The Squad” were much more respectful than their ethically challenged colleagues.
On Memorial Day, we honor the courageous people who sacrificed everything for our country, and grieve with the loved ones they left behind.
I hope we can commit to honoring our departed service members by prioritizing peace and diplomacy to stop the cycle of never-ending wars.

Today on #MemorialDay, we honor the brave servicemembers who made the ultimate sacrifice.
They laid down their lives to protect our nation & we can never take their sacrifices or our democracy for granted.
My heart is with gold star families from the #MA7 & across the country.

Disgraced former congresswoman Liz Cheney – who should be an honorary “Squad” member – also posted her Memorial Day message featuring a quote from Honest Abe Lincoln.
“From these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion, that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of… pic.twitter.com/VxAl9kR8y8

But she may soon have wished she had stayed away from her iPhone as users reminded her that warmongering chickenhawks like her and her dad bear much of the responsibility for the flag-draped coffins.
Sit this one out. Your father helped fill the cemetery.

The Cheney family, who loves to send others to die for their own greed, would like to say thanks for all that blood money they built their empire off of.

Empty sentiment from a known liar.

Lizzy you and your family have gotten rich off these wars, sit down, you’re irrelevant.

Of course Lincoln said that because you never would, you villainous traitor!

“On Memorial Day, we honor the fallen heroes who served and sacrificed for our freedom and for our future. We must never forget the price that was paid to protect our democracy,” said President Joe Biden, making sure to insert a reference to the Democrat version of “our democracy” that more closely resembles the fascism that American heroes gave their lives to defeat.
