Honestly asking, do you think this makes you seem more, or less in touch with voters by posting shit like this:
What his crazy ass is saying is that he tried to go in there and make “demands” with senior leadership and his fresh ass was told to find out where all the bathrooms are first.
He’s an incoming House member. He can write his own House resolution and whip his own votes. Stop looking to Black people to do the work for you and then crying foul and victim when you get told to move around.

“It was a procedural vote!”
“The new members weren’t sworn in yet”
“We’ll get him in January!”
“TrAfFiC”
Guys, it’s about optics. One week after a huge show out of support they can’t even be bothered to make a simple vote happen which is, after all, THEIR JOB

He’s not saying they were.
He’s saying democrats were given an immense amount of support in the election and the house D’s currently in office (many will be serving in 2028) couldn’t even be bothered to show up for a vote they KNEW was happening.

Massie literally has been saying for WEEKS this vote was coming. All they had to do was be there.
So let me get this straight. Speaker Johnson is forced to bring a vote to impeach Drunky McTinydick to the floor, so he rushes the vote before 20 members of Congress have time to arrive, insuring that the vote fails and y’all just blame Democrats, who voted to impeach, and not Republicans, who voted to keep him?
You’re all too fucking stupid to live.

“I would have ABSOLUTELY voted to impeach Pete Hegseth BUT I was at a little party celebrating me”

We’re not doing this. Either show up and do your job or get the fuck out. I’m sorry their AIPAC party ran long but it’s not like these members of congress aren’t massively corrupt.
Y’all do know that yesterday’s vote was NOT a vote to impeach Pete Hegseth, right?
It was a procedural vote on whether to REFER the articles of impeachment to the Judiciary Committee.
A YES vote meant sending the articles to committee rather than proceeding immediately with impeachment.
A NO vote meant rejecting that procedural maneuver so the impeachment effort could potentially move forward.
Nobody voted on whether to actually impeach Pete Hegseth yesterday.
And yes, I understand why some of y’all are upset that several Democrats got stuck in traffic and missed the vote. The vote was reportedly open for approximately 23 minutes, and some members arrived after it closed.
But even if those Democrats had made it and defeated the referral motion, that STILL would not have meant Pete Hegseth was impeached. The House would have needed to vote on the actual articles.
We can discuss accountability without misrepresenting what happened.
The misinformation on this app is dangerous, especially when people are repeating things they clearly do not understand.
Learn the difference between a procedural vote and a substantive vote before telling everybody what Congress did.

OMG they were at an AIPAC event instead of impeaching Hegseth?
This Hegseth vote opened at 5:30 pm. Some members have cited traffic produced by some incident near the Capitol as the reason they missed it, but @JulianAndreone was there at the time and saw nothing impeding traffic.
Interestingly, the PAC Elect Democratic Women (EDW) was having a “new member reception” from 4:30-6:30 pm.
If you followed the primaries closely, you know EDW’s offshoot, EDW Action Fund, served as one of the major pass-throughs for AIPAC money, so it’s a very important organization.
If you were at this reception and saw any truant members of Congress, signal is in bio for me and Julian.
Spent half of last year posting Islamophobic bullshit on zohran Mamdani but can’t be bothered to show up for work.
You need to be primaried.
Like Rep. Stansbury, I was stuck behind the same police escort blocking the Capitol when Republicans closed the vote. I would have voted no and believe strongly that Pete Hegseth should be impeached.

I feel like people who want Schumer to be leader have the memory of a goldfish.
If Hakeem Jeffries is the elite mastermind behind all these house gains for democrats why can’t he make sure enough of his party shows up to vote to impeach Hegseth?

and they want you to believe hakeem jeffries is going to be an effective leader
These 11 House Democrats missed the vote that blocked Hegseth’s impeachment effort. Just seven voting against it would have defeated the motion:
Julia Brownley (CA)
Lou Correa (CA)
Laura Gillen (NY)
Steven Horsford (NV)
Jonathan Jackson (IL)
Nancy Pelosi (CA)
Brittany Pettersen (CO)
Melanie Stansbury (NM)
Haley Stevens (MI)
Marilyn Strickland (WA)
Frederica Wilson (FL)
This is the guy everyone fell over to defend?

whatever the 16 dimensional chess here, the reality is the Dem party will––with widespread progressive support––be led by the biggest recipient of pro-Israel money in the House in 2024 (Jeffries) and a man who said his job was "to keep the left pro-Israel" (Schumer). Very bleak.

I’m going to speak my truth. I think it’s really unfair to call it millennial grey when most millennials won’t ever own a home and were forced to rent these flipped homes who the owners decided to turn all sanitized and grey because it was cheap! We had no control over this!
