      Jim DeFede is wrong. Salazar voted against the Chips act, but voted FOR the Consolidated Appropriation act of 2023. The CAA23, did not have the Chips act included in it. The funding Jim is referring to that she presented, is in the CAA23 bill.

      True, and credit to him. This despicable partisan hack and hypocrite keeps trying to deny any memory of major legislation that she voted against and shift to the "positive" of money that SHE is bringing to the district, again spinning it as something she deserves praise for. And then she has the gall to claim "I'm not trying to be a politician" when that is exactly what she's doing--acting like the worst kind of politician, the shifty fraudster who lies and can't be pinned down on reality.

      If you voted against money that came into your district for valuable, positive public works, then why should your constituents support your reelection? Your constituents' interests would be better served by a representative who doesn't hinder bills that improve their lives. And certainly not by a rep who is so blatantly party-first to the detriment of her district. We need politicians who can negotiate in good faith, and compromise, instead of hold a party line regardless of a bill's benefits to the populace.

The fact that she personally delivered the check is completely irrelevant, that money would have gone there whether she was involved or not because the bill that provided it passed, while it's great that the interviewer called her out for taking credit for things she voted against, I'm kinda shocked he not only let her get away with that phrasing, but actually agreed with it by using it in his response.
