Cuellar announced he will seek reelection as a Democrat, shortly after Trump issued pardons for him and his wife, Imelda, who faced federal bribery charges. Trump criticized Cuellar for remaining with the Democratic Party despite the pardons, accusing Democrats under the Biden management of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mccarthy-vows-investigation-into-manhattan-da-ahead-of-expected-trump-indictment\/\" title=\"McCarthy vows investigation into Manhattan DA ahead of expected ... indictment\">politically motivated prosecutions<\/a> aimed at destroying Cuellar and his family. Trump praised the pardons as an act of fairness and described the attacks on Cuellar as unjust.Cuellar, a centrist known for his tough stance on border security, expressed willingness to support Trump&#8217;s success despite political differences. The article also notes Cuellar&#8217;s record of occasionally breaking with Democratic leadership on immigration and other issues.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>President Donald Trump ripped into Democratic Texas Rep.

He also supported several Republican-backed measures, <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >including legislation targeting migrant crime<\/a> and protecting women&rsquo;s sports, and broke ranks again in November when he backed a bipartisan plan to reopen the government during the 2025 shutdown.<\/p>\n<div class=\"disclaimer\">\n<p><em>All content created by the Daily Caller News Foundation, an independent and nonpartisan newswire service, is available without charge to any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/union-membership-plummets-to-record-low\/\" title=\"Union Membership Plummets to Record Low\">legitimate news publisher<\/a> that can provide a large audience.
