Massie did not need to make a big stink over this. What purpose does it serve? If you have an answer to that which satisfies the millions who are waiting on a relief check, consider what their “I give a shit” level is concerning congressional decorum.
As I stated previously, there is a place and time for being stubborn in this fashion. This just isn't the time.
Exactly like this is not the place and time for Pelosi to attempt to put her bullshit agenda front and center over this “crisis”.
Do you find that making a decision without a quorum prsent is okay? I think your answer is yes.
Which, to me, puts you in the situational rules camp. Don't express an opinion based on "rule of law" and expect me to think that you mean it.
Which, by the way, I think "rule of law" is a joke too, so I never use that. There is no such thing as rule of law. It's all about who has the power.
Massie’s behavior takes the heat off of Nancy Pelosi’s delay of the bill and the fact that the House has been on recess for a week or maybe two weeks prior to this. They were not even in Washington during a crisis. Republicans do not seem to know when to choose their battles.
