Dope1: Yup. Nothing to see here: abcnews.go.com - Brother suspec...

Laken Hope Riley...

Let it never be said that republicans don't exploit the tragic murder of a young woman with lightning speed. I don't think I've seen a single congressional republican's Twitter account that didn't politicize her murder despite no official word on the suspect's immigration status.

And none of the congressional republicans has mentioned that the suspect charged with Ms. Riley's murder was processed for expedited removal but claimed a credible fear of return to Venezuela. He was consequently released from immigration custody pending a ruling on his asylum claim on April 30.

And none of the congressional republicans has mentioned that House Speaker Moses Johnson refused to bring a bipartisan immigration bill to the floor that would speed asylum claim reviews and enable faster processing of expedited removal cases.

And none of the congressional republicans has mentioned a single one of the other 12 or so women who are murdered in the United States every day, or the mysterious death of Nex Benedict.

No political ground to be gained there, though.
