11 dem no show, i wonder who side are they even on.

Democrats excrete Mike Johnson!

I already commented this elsewhere, but the phrasing wasn't phony. The bill was endorsed by the Citizens Climate Lobby: https://citizensclimatelobby.org/get-loud-take-action/baaja/

They believe (and say on that link) that the bill with result in net reduction of emissions.

Not present: Nancy Pelosi (Calif.)

Made me laugh. Of course she's on the list.

Just a reminder that every single day that passes with war in Iran, Palantir is making insane profits from keeping it going.

Also, Hakeem Jeffries takes money from Palantir.

Not that these two facts taken together have anything to do with Jeffries not whipping the Hegseth impeachment, though. No. Not a thing. Pure coincidence, I'm sure.

They did. Instead of this vote, they went to an AIPAC event. They didn't care about the optics at all!

Does the constitution state that people can't be imprisoned before their court date?

That's true if you just add percentages. But ranked choice includes the possibility of "exhausting" your ballot by just not listing a second or third or fourth choice. That's how Peltola won her house seat initially. When you think about it as a vote gap of 4000ish votes with 9000ish votes to be gained in arbitragr, Dan has to win about 50% of all of those ballots. He'll almost definitely get 50% of the non-exhausted ballots, but the analysis I've seen of the RCV results released to date shows him falling well short so far of 50% of all ballots once exhaustion is accounted for

In his defence, he was also drunk /s

There is zero chance this was going to pass the Senate. I hate performative events. Do something that matters, forget about optics.

It will keep happening while we allow Nazis to walk amongst us.

They have LITERALLY ADMITTED IT SO MANY TIMES

It's literally called Palentir, Jesus Christ.

Mike Johnson spied on his boys' internet searches...'nuff said.

Mike has delivered exorbitantly well for his handlers’ goals and wishes. I would personally say he executed everything perfectly compared to the rest of that demented ass pedophile cabal that we have jokingly called Republicans for the last 5 decades

Dare I say, he is the next Mitch McConnell?!? If he manages to not end up in prison by 2040, I’ll start preparing for his future presidency when he hits 80 or so

This is definitely Mike Little Johnson’s dream as a closeted white supremacist

Cool, more democrats-in-disarray being played up by the "liberal media".

Headlines like this seem to be missing some rather important details.

They're trying to go to mars, I say we help them on the way. Tomorrow if possible.

They grow spines when they leave or are expelled.

It always baffled me, yeah there will always be some that abuse the system. But idc about the <1% that do vs the 99+% that get helped and make society better as a whole because of it.

11 Democrats failed to show up to vote. The vote failed by 7 votes. That's pretty simple math.

This could have been the end of Hegseth's political career. Trump doesn't like it when people close to him get bad press; he usually fires people when public opinion turns against them. And if Republicans are as ready to drop MAGA as the media seem to think, it's possible that a number of Republican senators would have broken ranks to remove him. (We would be right to assume they wouldn't vote to remove, but it's still theoretically possible, and we'll never truly know if any of them have developed a spine or a moral compass.)

Keep it going

Democrat skull fucks Mike Johnson.

Edit: yes I feel gross putting this into the universe.

Yeah, so if they're threatening new members to make them vote for Jeffries in January, just imagine how strongly they're threatening anyone right now who even thinks about running against him, to make sure he'll be the only choice.

Notice how these assholes have no problem playing hardball against their own side while meekly going along with the other side. Like on the Hegeth impeachment vote. If they really wanted to get the job done on impeaching him, they'd have made damn sure they had the people there to vote. Which means they didn't want to, or they didn't want to do it now when it was a repub who introduced the bill, or some other shit reason. Just shows what their agenda really is, no matter what they pretend it is. At least this guy is brave enough to reveal their duplicity, then the people can be the ones primarying them next time.

january cant come soon enough

Well figuratively fuck you then! :)

Oh no how unfortunate.

Petey is having a rough week.
