“I was stuck in traffic after attending an event for an AIPAC front group so I couldn’t (accidentally, and in good faith) vote to impeach the person prosecuting the war AIPAC enthusiastically supports” ok if you say so

Is there a grand strategy at play the reason why 11 dems opted not to cast a vote on articles of #impeachment re: @PeteHegseth or is this a prelude of what to expect from a @RepJeffries led caucus??
Drake Phillips retweeted
Who does @RepPettersen work for because it sure isn’t us. She was one of the 11 who didn’t show up for the vote to impeach Hegseth. She always has time for photo ops, but doesn’t have time to do her actual job. #pathetic #copolitics

He did not fail to get the votes! He just didn’t try.
I asked Hakeem Jeffries about attendance appearing decisive in the Pete Hegseth vote. (11 House Dems did not vote tonight.)
He told me and reporters: "I haven't had a conversation with anyone on the floor team about what may or may not have happened in terms of the Hegseth resolution, but this is not the end of it. It's just the beginning."

I believe in my SOUL @AyannaPressley @RepPressley will be the next Speaker of the House
Pass Medicare for All
Abolish ICE
Uphold International Law
Drake Phillips retweeted
Make @AyannaPressley Madam Speaker NOW!
She has the moral conviction to legislate with dignity for America’s working class and with respect for international law.
I can’t recall Hakeem Jeffries ever standing with anti-ICE protesters or visiting detention centers. Instead, he meets with tech oligarchs while ignoring loyal Democratic activist groups.
Worse, he tells the caucus to show respect to a murderous pedo cult leader while taking meetings with his son in law (an unofficial White House envoy violating ethics rules, mind you). All of this is fine under Jeffries because he’s compromised by the same billionaires bankrolling MAGA.
The American people deserve better.

🚨 11 DEMOCRATS WERE MISSING.
Had they shown up, the Hegseth impeachment vote could have been 215–211.
Now look at the 🇮🇱🇮🇱AIPAC blood 🩸🩸money flowing into some of these campaigns.
Coincidence? Voters deserve answers.

These lazy fucks get like 6 months of vacation a year. Schedule your fucking tax-payer funded procedures during your time off, asshole.

Uhm... no.
11 House Democrats didn't show up.
That is why it failed.
Republicans just blocked the House from impeaching Pete Hegseth.
They are protecting an unqualified, incompetent man over our servicemembers.
What a disgrace.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The vote failed because 11 dems were absent.

Best endorsement for Van Hollen

Jeffries couldn't even get Democrats in line to vote to impeach Hegseth. Truly inspiring.
Drake Phillips retweeted
lol
1. They’re def scared that we are watching them.
2. You should’ve got there sooner. If a worker shows up for their shift late, they get fired.
We are talking about life and death here.
Tonight, House Republicans voted to send the articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to the Judiciary Committee, a move designed to stall accountability without a direct vote on the merits.
While en route to the floor to oppose that motion, a traffic incident and a police-escorted bus caused a delay that resulted in the vote closing before I, along with other Members, could reach the chamber. I have since entered my NO vote in the Congressional Record.
I remain firm in my position that Secretary Hegseth must be held accountable and impeached.
Drake Phillips retweeted
so funny how there’s always just never enough democrats!!! must be a coincidence!!!
Drake Phillips retweeted
I am so fucking angry. @RepPettersen you do not represent me, where the hell were you? I will do everything in my power to support the person that primaries you in 2028. This is unacceptable.

“An impeachment vote cannot come soon enough”
and then misses the vote lol
Since his nomination, I have been sounding the alarm about Hegseth’s dangerous incompetence.
An impeachment vote cannot come soon enough.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Rep. Marilyn Strickland did not vote on the House motion to refer the Pete Hegseth impeachment resolution (H. Res. 1655) to committee.

This is a nonstarter. Voting is your job. You’re supposed to be in the chamber when voting starts. If you can’t meet the most basic aspect of the job you signed up for, it’s clearly not a good fit and you should be let go.
