Texas Democrats split the state this week to prevent a quorum from being reached and thus block (or “filibuster” if you will) passage of a bill by the duly elected majority in the Texas legislature. Upon arriving in D.C., the vacationers broke out in a spontaneous performance of “We Shall Overcome.” Then they spontaneously did it again the next day, coincidentally following little media coverage of the first show.
Performance one began during an on-the-tarmac presser late Monday night. The Democrats, arriving as they were from many hours on the beer bus and the maskless private and/or chartered flight (in violation of FAA rules and CDC guidelines), held their first presser quite late, on the tarmac of the airport, before departing to their temporary quarters in D.C. to weather the sacrifice and hardship of the trip.
On Tuesday, with more press and attention and the benefit of daylight and make-up, they put on a reprise performance on the Capitol steps. It was a somewhat shorter spontaneous display the second time around, but no less off-the-cuff and magnificently historic.
Meanwhile in Texas, lawmakers who remained at work took the opportunity to fulfill every politician’s most deeply held dream and authorized arrest warrants for their colleagues.
Think of all the problems that could be solved in the United States if we could all put out arrest warrants for co-workers who don’t show up.

12 Childish leaders oppress my people,
and women rule over them.
O my people, your leaders mislead you;
they send you down the wrong road.

All the images I've been able to find, it appears photographers weren't allowed that close.
I did find an article with some plane info: Texas Democrats Skip Special Session & Fly on Private Plane to DC
A coalition of members of the Texas state House boarded private planes purportedly owned by Philippe Khalil Ziade, a Lebanese-American entrepreneur and honorary consul of Lebanon in Nevada, according to Texas State Representative Briscoe Cain (R-Deer Park). Ziade is the founder and chairman of Las Vegas based Growth Holdings and is highly engaged in Lebanese politics and other ex-pat affairs, according to the Republican lawmaker. Cain provided KPRC Radio with flight logs from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport to confirm the claim. The flight logs list an airplane tail number, a code unique to a single aircraft supposedly associated with Ziade, according to Cain.
I believe the planes flew into Dulles.
Hopefully that'll help with what you're looking for.
That’s good.. Sometimes the anti-woman stuff on FR gets to me…like there was never political chicanery and dysfunction before women got the vote? Gimme a break.
they look like a group of middle aged women on a girl’s night out.
Nothing wrong with girl’s night out, or guy’s night out. They supposedly want us to think that they are standing on some high constitutional principles with this stunt, but they act like it’s party time. What the heck?
What a bunch of COWARDS.
DEMOCRATS LIE about everything.
VOTE them out !!!
They ran like cowards.
Vote them out !!!
