They are trying, as they have stated, to get enough public reaction and focus to call the House BACK into session. Pelosi will not do this on a vote because right now she has the votes. These guys are trying to do something to attract enough attention to get the public so upset that the pressure is put on the DEM reps so they force Pelosi's hand on this for the fear of their political lives.

And THAT is exactly what it is going to take.

So I say BRAVO for these reps making a play like this to garner attention and get the people to contact and put pressure on their reps.

'bout time.

If America cares and the people react...OUTSTANDING. If not, nothing is lost in the effort.

That is what I hope will happen.

Then, maybe, just maybe, America will wake up.

“There are several dozen Cub Scouts sitting on the House floor in seats normally occupied by members.”

Good! Now, somebody should swear them in and let them vote.

FOX NEWS URGENT QUEUE:

Urgent: I-view with Rep. Pence on mock session

MEDIA ID: RAW-REM232-1335-3PS2143A

Per Pergram-Capitol Hill

We will be feeding back an interview shortly from the Hill with Rep. Mike Pence (R-IN) about the mock session Republicans have drummed up.

In the interview, I ask Pence if he would kindly escort our Fox camera onto the floor to witness this. He said there are rules prohibiting private video or photographs from the floor and was unwilling to do so. He also said Republicans would stay on the floor until Democrats require them to leave.

Good bytes. Runs about 5 minutes.

Such gangs are globalist stooges plain and simple. They offer stop-gap nonsense to keep the slaves from major rioting.

They are still traitors, imho.

“Update 6 - Rep Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) just pretended to be a Democrat. He stood on the other side of the chamber and listed all of the GOP bills that the Dems killed.

He then said “I am a Democrat and here is my energy plan” and he held up a picture of an old VW Bug with a sail attached to it. He paraded around he house floor with the sign while the crowd cheered.”

LOL. I love the dim energy plan.....

Woot, I love to see everyone getting fired up about this. Any idea who all is on the floor still representative wise? Called the Whip and told them to keep on keeping on.

It makes us look pretty pathetic to be trying to make this into a point of contention.

We have a system in place to allow representatives to vote on popular issues. When the House leader goes to extreme lengths to disallow votes, effectively terminating the whole point of a democratic republic, cooperation has broken down to the point where alternative means must be pursued. If an insistence on having an otherwise normal vote (in place of mere mundane recess) doesn't work, the next steps get really ugly really fast.
