Democrat Congressman Ted Lieu has found himself in the news again and not for reasons he would like.
The congressman got caught up commenting on a left-wing report that claimed a young woman was criminally convicted for having an abortion. In truth, the woman and her mother were found guilty of covering the death by burning and buying the remains of the 28-week-old unborn child.
After Lieu was called out on social media, he claimed that acknowledging that unborn children are alive is a “religious belief.”
You have the right to believe a fetus is a baby. You do not have the right to force your religious belief down other people’s throats, nor force them into jail. That’s why Democrats will flip the House next year, because of people like you who want to jail women.

What made the Congressman mad was that a left wing podcaster he likes was fact checked. Now that Elon controls Twitter (or X) the left doesn’t like the fact they are being fact checked.
The Twitter community note at the bottom of the tweet is stupid. Putting women in jail for concealing an abortion as compared to having an abortion is not the winning message that Republicans think it is. https://t.co/H40YEemmsI

The congressman was getting ripped in the comments and very few were defending him.
A few days, later DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas was testifying before congress when Rep. Lieu started a bizarre line of questioning that was so frustrating Mayorkas told him to knock it off.
Even DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is frustrated with Democrat Rep. Ted Lieu’s idiotic line of questioning:
