In a stunning display of callousness that has patriots across America outraged, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) told grieving Angel Families at a House Judiciary Committee hearing Wednesday that while he was "sorry" for their losses, Americans are statistically more violent than illegal aliens.
The families, who lost loved ones to crimes committed by illegal immigrants, sat in the audience as Cohen delivered his tone-deaf lecture about crime statistics. These are parents, spouses, and children who have suffered unimaginable loss due to Biden's open border policies—and this Democrat congressman chose to minimize their pain with liberal talking points.
Social Media ERUPTS Over Cohen's Heartless Comments
Americans wasted no time expressing their disgust on social media. "@repcohen is a piece of crap representing #Tennessee. #democratsAreTheEnemy," fired back one user on X, capturing the sentiment of millions who watched the shameful spectacle.
"@RepCohen you are lying! The numbers show a higher percentage of illegals commit crimes, by a large margin, than American citizens! Study your lesson!" another patriot shot back, calling out Cohen's misleading statistics.
Multiple users described Cohen's performance as "disgusting"—and they're absolutely right. What kind of person lectures grieving families about crime statistics while they're seeking justice for their murdered loved ones?
The Real Numbers Tell a Different Story
Cohen's statistical sleight-of-hand ignores the crucial fact that illegal aliens shouldn't be here committing ANY crimes in the first place. Every Angel Family represents a 100% preventable tragedy that occurred because Democrats refuse to secure our border.
These families didn't ask for lectures about comparative crime rates—they asked for justice and accountability. Instead, they got a Democrat politician more interested in defending illegal aliens than honoring their dead children.
This is exactly why President Trump's mass deportation program is so critical. While Democrats like Cohen make excuses and cite cherry-picked statistics, Trump is taking action to ensure no more Angel Families have to endure what these brave Americans have suffered.
How can any decent person watch grieving parents and tell them their pain doesn't matter because of crime statistics? This is the modern Democrat Party—more concerned with protecting illegal aliens than American citizens.
