Where was the accident? In DC? In Indiana? Somewhere else?

So, one guy died today. This one is in a car crash. MTG is out.

So, what is the voting majority today? 1? 2?

I posted this in February 2024:


The issue is the double-standard of declining to indict Democrats for the same thing they indicted Republicans for. Examples are the treatment of Paul Manafort (registered foreign agent), Steve Bannon (contempt of Congress), and Peter Navarro (contempt of Congress) versus Eric Holder (contempt of Congress) and Hunter Biden (registered foreign agent). Look at Jamaal Bowman (obstructing an official procedure) versus George Santos (lying during a campaign???) and J6 trespasser (obstructing an official procedure).

In the case of House Representatives, again it's about power. Democrats have been trying to whittle down the Republican 4-seat lead using procedural tricks while defending their own seats for similar transgressions. They support the ouster of McCarthy and Santos while protecting Omar, Bush and Bowman. It's just how they roll.


Maybe the desperate Democrats have moved beyond "procedural tricks" to dirtier tricks?
