If voting from home is permitted in Congress, is anyone really ever absent?

And who the hell is actually voting? Whoever is logged into the conger critter’s account?

There are seven dirtbag rats from Maryland and one patriot. I want to know who the dirtbag is.

I suspect it’s Jamie Raskin

The democrats are yelling they want to vote by mail because of the virus...As I said, my idea is to just keep Trump in office for four more years so people don’t have to go to the polls...Hehehe...(The democrats would scream bloody murder if we suggested this) I’d love it....

Patriots, please consider that there is probably nothing in Pelosi’s unconstitutional (imo) proxy rule that prevents proxy voting chains that can end with a single lawmaker; lawmakers who accepts proxy votes can in turn proxy those proxy votes to an even smaller number of lawmakers in a repeating process. (We’re talking about desperate Democrats here.)

So consider the scenario where all proxy votes possibly end up getting proxied to Pelosi, Pelosi’s misguided, majority Democrat decision on any issue therefore the only House vote that decides a vote if such is the case.

Pelosi’s “smoke and mirrors” proxy vote rule also effectively nullifies the express constitutional power of the people to vote for representatives imo.

"Article I, Section 2, Clause 1: The House of Representatives shall be composed of Members chosen every second Year by the People of the several States [emphasis added], and the Electors in each State shall have the Qualifications requisite for Electors of the most numerous Branch of the State Legislature."

Are we having fun yet?

Send "Orange Man Bad" federal and state government Democrats and RINOs home in November!

Supporting PDJT with new patriot federal and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping SARS-CoV-2 will effectively give fast-working Trump a "third term" in office imo.

This a prelude to proxy voting in general elections.

One long-standing problem with (one of many) democrats is they don’t view our Constitution or Bill of Rights as law. They view is a sort of guide that can be subverted to their will whenever they like.

The only way to stop this nonsense is to literally stop this nonsense with a supreme court case spelling out in plain English the Constitution and the BoR cannot be changed by a simple vote in congress.
