Rep. Dan Crenshaw ripped his Democratic colleagues Monday over their refusal to back a bipartisan Coronavirus relief bill; saying they were “lying” about claims the legislation is little more than a GOP “slush fund.”
“Dems are lying about the rescue bill. They say it’s a ‘slush fund.’ In reality, loans to big businesses PROHIBIT increases in executive pay and stock buy backs. It’s in the bill, clear as day. They don’t have real reasons for opposing this. This is pure, bitter partisanship,” said Crenshaw on social media.

Here is the text on the $500B portion of the bill:
Direct Lending Limitations: executive total compensation may not exceed $425,000; prohibition of stock buybacks during the duration of the loan; borrowers must maintain existing payroll as of March 13.
Dems are lying.

CRENSHAW CRUSH: Dan Crenshaw Calls AOC, Bernie’s ‘Green New Deal’ a ‘3rd Grade Science Project’
Congressman Dan Crenshaw unloaded on the Democrats’ ‘Green New Deal’ Thursday night; describing the far-left proposal as nothing more than a “3rd grade science project” that isn’t based on “science or engineering.”
“Then why didn’t you vote ‘YES’ for the Green New Deal when it came to the Senate Floor? Maybe because it’s not a plan. Or a good deal. Or even ‘Green.’ It’s a 3rd grade science project that isn’t based in science or engineering,” posted Crenshaw on social media.

“And more importantly on this stuff, from a policy perspective, the Green New Deal is not an actual proposal. There is no actual plan in the Green New Deal. It just says, ‘Everything is going to be wind and solar and we’re going to get rid of airplanes and cows.’ That’s not a plan. That’s not a serious proposal,” he told Fox News.
CRENSHAW RESPONDS: Rep. Crenshaw SLAMS Ilhan Omar For Accusing Him of ‘Inciting’ Violence
Rep. Dan Crenshaw issued a fiery response to Ilhan Omar’s vicious comments Wednesday after she accused the Texas lawmaker of “inciting” violence against the controversial Congresswoman.
“1. I never called you un-American.
2. I did not incite any violence against you.
3. You described an act of terrorism on American soil that killed thousands of innocent lives as ‘some people did something.’ It’s still unbelievable, as is your response here,” tweeted Crenshaw.

Omar found herself in hot-water -yet again- this week after footage surfaced of her referring to the devastating 9/11 terror attacks as “some people” who “did something.”
