Why no White House invite for the Nashville heroes, Joe?
March 31, 2023
Where’s the White House invitation for the hero cops who stopped deranged Nashville shooter Audrey Hale?
As bodycam footage reveals, two Nashville PD officers — Marine vet Michael Collazo and star cop Rex Engelbert — rushed the shooter with no heed for their own safety.
They saved countless lives in the process, and deserve every imaginable commendation.
So why the silence from 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.?
The Biden White House has never been shy in the past about inviting other brave souls.
Brandon Tsay, the heroic civilian who disarmed the Monterey Park, Calif., mass shooter, was invited to the 2023 State of the Union address.
Capitol Police Officer Eugene Goodman, who faced down rioters on Jan. 6, 2021, was invited this year when he received the Presidential Citizens Medal.
For the 2022 signing of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, Biden’s big-deal gun control law, the White House invited Dayton mass shooting survivor Dion Green, the families of the victims in the 2018 Santa Fe school shooting and many others.
The heroes of the Nashville school shooting have not yet been invited to the White House.RowVaughn and Rodney Wells, the mother and stepfather of Tyre Nichols — murdered by Memphis police officers — were guests at the same SOTU as Brandon Tsay.
Heck, K-pop megastars BTS got invited to discuss the rising tide of anti-Asian hate in 2022.
Collazo and Engelbert demonstrated the same valor as Tsay and Goodman.
Their story deserves as much attention as Green’s or the Wellses’.
Engelbert fired at the mass shooting suspect in the Covenant School, according to the bodycam footage.
And they surely have a better claim than BTS.
But the reasons behind the White House’s cold shoulder are crystal clear.
The shooter the two heroes took down was trans — so the Twitter wing of the Democratic Party is in full damage-control mode.

Note the desperate effort to portray trans people generally as the real victims of Hale’s massacre, not the dead adults and children.
And the heroes belong to a group despised by that same wing of the party: the police.
(Unless, of course, the cops are federal and they’re busting Trumpist heads.)
Audrey Hale shot and killed six people at the Covenant School.

They shot and killed a transgender "woman" therefore they have nothing coming. The fact that the woman was murdering 9-year old school children has nothing to do with anything.
