On Wednesday, shockwaves erupted across Washington, D.C. and Indiana when the sad news of Jackie Walorski’s death (R-Ind.) broke.).
Local news reports Walorski, 58, and two members of her staff – district director Zachary Potts and comms director Emma Thompson – were killed in a car crash that happened in Elkhart County around 12:30 pm local time when a driver going in the opposite direction reportedly crossed over the center line and hit their vehicle head-on.
Edith Schmucker was also the driver.
While tributes and expressions of shock and sadness poured in from both sides of the aisle, with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and President Biden ordering flags to be flown half-staff at the Capitol building and White House respectively in memory of Walorski, the Washington Post was busy composing a report her death, making sure to throw in a gratuitous cheap shot at the end for good measure because apparently they just can’t help themselves.
The story was fairly straightforward, noting the details of the crash and that that Walorski was a Christian who had “worked in journalism and academia” before she got elected to Congress, where she served the 2nd Congressional District for ten years.
But it was towards the end of the piece where the WaPo made sure to give their liberal fan base their money’s worth, pointing out that she “opposed the Women’s Health Protection Act and the Ensuring Access to Abortion Act” before making sure to weave in the Capitol riot and Walorski’s vote against certifying Joe Biden’s election:
Earlier this month, she opposed the Women’s Health Protection Act and the Ensuring Access to Abortion Act, calling Democrats’ stance on abortion “dangerous” and “extreme.”
“At Speaker Pelosi’s urging, House Democrats once again voted to greenlight abortion at any time in pregnancy, anywhere in the country, and bankrolled by American taxpayers,” Walorski said in a statement. “Abortion on demand is a direct affront to pro-life values and Americans’ conscience rights.”
Donald Trump supporter Walorski voted no to impeach the president for his involvement in Jan. 6, 2016 attack on Capitol. This resulted the death of four police officers and more than 100 injuries. She also voted against confirming Democrat Joe Biden’s victories in Arizona and Pennsylvania in the 2020 presidential election.
