The naked truth: Democrats lose a few more voters to jail

OPINION:

Several naked bicyclists riding in front of a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in Portland, Oregon, to protest the presence of the federal agents in the city were arrested for blocking ICE’s driveway.

And all the Democrats go — dang. There go more Dem voters, off to prison!

At this rate, the only Democrats making it to the polls on Election Day will be family members and illegals. And that’s only if there’s not another ICE facility out there requiring a batch of people to take off their clothes and ride their bikes nearby. Honestly, these ICE agents and their demands. …

But just in case you’re wondering what naked bike riding has to do with protests against law enforcement — there’s this line of logic: Yeah. Insert crickets’ chirps here.

Lunacy looms large in ye olde Democrat Party camp. The video clips don’t lie. Neither do the headlines.

“In Portland, nude cyclists join anti-ICE protests in rain-soaked ride,” NBC News wrote.

“Naked bike riders protest Trump administration in Portland,” The Hill wrote.

“Cyclists rally against ‘militarization’ of Portland with emergency naked bike ride,” KOIN.com reported.

“See photos of the Emergency World Naked Bike Ride in Portland,” The Register-Guard reported.

Oh, and that last reminds: Did you hear Secretary of War-Not-Defense Pete Hegseth fired several fat Texas National Guard troops for failing to meet weight standards? No relation to the topic at hand. Just sayin’.

If only Democrats and leftists had a message that could be shared while wearing clothing. They probably wouldn’t be regarded as so mentally deranged.

“Naked protesters in upstate NY wear ‘spit hoods’ in solidarity with Daniel Prude,” a Black man who died in Rochester in March “after police put a mesh hood over his head as he knelt naked and restrained on the streets,” Reuters reported a few days ago. 

“PETA holds ‘naked truth’ protest outside Downtown Jersey City’s Whole Foods,” Hudson County View wrote in January.

“Topless climate activists block street in Rome,” WION wrote in a headline in May of 2023.

“Topless Protesters Glue Themselves to Desk at NBC: ‘Tell The Naked Truth About Climate,’” Freedom News TV wrote a few years ago.

“Climate change protesters strip during Brexit debate to demand action,” CBS reported in April of 2019.

My, oh my. Leftist madness knows no borders.

But stay dressed, Democrats. Why show insanity at such a long distance? At least wait and make ‘em hear you speak first. Remember: a publicly naked Democrat is a jailed Democrat, and jailed Democrats don’t vote.
