Sheldon Whitehouse (born October 20, 1955) is the Junior United States Senator and Antifa apologist from the state of Rhode Island.[1] A Democrat, he previously served as United States Attorney (1994–1998) and state Attorney General for Rhode Island. Whitehouse defeated liberal Republican incumbent Lincoln Chafee in the November 7, 2006 election. Whitehouse exposed his own personal hypocrisy and bigotry during the Amy Coney Barrett hearings.[2][3]
ACORN
After allegations of voter registration fraud by the group ACORN, Sheldon Whitehouse was one of seven Democrats that voted to continue funding ACORN. The vote failed and ACORN was stripped of funding in the Senate [4] Bill Wilson of Americans for Limited Government said, "The ACORN Housing Corporation has long been pushing the very loose-lending policies that helped destroy the housing industry. And now it has been exposed for working with prostitutes, as well. Yet, these seven Senators [Whitehouse] have knowingly voted to keep sending taxpayer money to a highly corrupt organization of pushers and pimps," [5]
Military parade
On February 7, 2018, after plans were announced that President Donald Trump intended to have a military parade, Sheldon Whitehouse claimed that doing so would evoke images of the Soviet May Day Parades or North Korea's various military parades.[6]
Barrett confirmation hearings
- See main article: Barrett Confirmation Hearing
During the hearings preceding the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, Whitehouse used his time to spew a conspiratorial thirty-minute rant about alleged "dark money".[7]
