Please pick a different Speaker, Dems. Please.
FFS.
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."

It’s depressingly prophetic that this stirring speech, which captures the beating heart of what makes Superman so enduring and great, is delivered to an anti-social, out of touch billionaire who refuses to acknowledge its sincerity and power out of pure spite.

If Lego ever makes an Edmund Fitzgerald set I'm paying whatever they charge for it

WE GIVE THEM A BLUE TSUNAMI AND THEY IMMEDIATELY START SQUANDERING IT IN MULTIPLE WAYS
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)

51 years ago tonight, the Arthur M Anderson was the last ship to see the Edmund Fitzgerald, and the first one to go back out looking for survivors. She now sits quietly at a dock in Toledo.

Reach across the aisle? To the people who shot an ICU nurse 5 times for defending a woman? That's a no from me.

This guys didn’t show up to vote to impeach Hegseth.
We can’t trust these people to lead us. We just can’t. Primary these people.
I vehemently support the impeachment of Secretary Hegseth.
Hegseth has dragged us into another endless war. He has fired experienced generals who disagree with him and the president. And under his leadership, the military has blatantly discriminated against women, LGBTQ+ service members, and others.
Our troops deserve a Secretary of Defense who puts their safety first and honors our Constitution.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Rep. Lou Correa did not vote on the House motion to refer the Pete Hegseth impeachment resolution (H. Res. 1655) to committee.

This is a real tweet from the House Democrats who, six hours later, BLOCKED THIS THEMSELVES.
PETE HEGSETH OUT NOW.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
11 house democrats were absent for this vote, and had they not been absent and voted with their caucus Pete Hegseth would have been impeached by the house.
In effect, both the Democrats and Republicans both protected Pete Hegseth. Procedure is weaponized by both sides.

This should be the end of Jeffries as speaker. The fact 11 dems missed this vote is Insane.
Kamlager-Dove on Hegseth Impeachment: We knew that this vote was coming, so people should have gotten their raggedy selves up these steps to vote. There is no reason why we should have lost this vote because of attendance issues.
You know this man should not be in this position. That’s why he got up at 8 o’clock in the morning with his sorry self to plead to the American people.
So shame on folks who are not here. Because these people lost. They lost, and they still found a way to show up to table this bill. Shameful.

He couldn’t get Dems to show up for a vote after 58 days on vacation. Even YOU skipped it.

At the EXACT TIME there's a backlash to the coronation of Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker, he FUCKS UP THE IMPEACHMENT OF HEGSETH BY NOT WHIPPING VOTES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tonight, we remember the 29.
On the 51st anniversary of the loss of the Edmund Fitzgerald, experience our entrance onto the ice through the eyes of our players, accompanied by the same cinematic arrangement of Gordon Lightfoot’s tribute that plays at every Laker Hockey home game.

It’s been 51 years since the Edmund Fitzgerald sank into Lake Superior. Today, we honor the 29 brave souls we lost on that tragic day. May their memory live on.
