Sens. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) and Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) got in a confrontation Wednesday with Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) after they staged a surprise press gaggle outside his office to highlight their health care demands and his delay in swearing in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz.).
“The guy who works in this office right here is keeping all of his Republican colleagues and his caucus on an extended summer vacation. He will not come back to negotiate with us. We are ready,” Kelly told reporters outside Johnson’s office, referring to Democrats wanting commitments on health care measures as a condition of voting to reopen the government.

Oh, so you want the Dem sworn in. Thanks useless Rand Paul, uh, Fan.
Has the Election been certified yet? Last check, it hadn’t.
By “negotiation” he means knuckle under, like they always do.
Not this time, rats.
Democrats are master bullies. What they lack in policy and truth, they compensate for by sheer terrorism and tenacity.
It’s a little-known problem with space travel where a very few astronauts have every shred of integrity stripped away by cosmic rays. It became apparent with Glenn and now there’s Kelly.
I hope Elon is putting better shielding in his ships.
True dat
No real desire about that but it’s the true reason why they won’t (Epstein)
“Johnson has been a pleasant surprise.”
Yeah I agree. Johnson has been unflappable.
