@treeaston I know! Itโs almost like the left is truly motivated by a fighter who aligns with their values, no matter their identity or age or faction.
The fact that @ChrisVanHollen has credibility with the left and with the mainstream of the Dem party is exactly why he's a great fit for leadership. None of us have forgotten how he fought for Kilmar Abrego Garcia when it wasn't safe or popular and worked to expose war crimes against Palestinians. He's also been a leading voice against the atrocities in Sudan. In other words he's showed actual character and leadership. Exactly what's needed.
Tonight, House Republicans used a procedural motion to kill the impeachment of Pete Hegseth, by referring it to the Judiciary Committee.
Like other Members of Congress, Rep. Stansbury was blocked from entering the Capitol to vote due a traffic incident and a police escort of a bus during the vote. When she reached the chamber the vote had just gaveled out. She immediately filed a report of her vote of โNOโ to the motion meant to kill the impeachment articles and refer them to the Judiciary Committee, as documented in the Congressional Record.
Pete Hegseth must be impeached now.
Not if you understand how the org works. Theres hundreds of chapters. They have different platforms than national. There are multiple factions, and everyone doesnโt agree on things.
The most popular issues unite the candidates that ran in Congressโlike Medicare for all, stronger unions, universal college & childcare, ending foreign aid, cutting aid to Israel, and climate action.
@Hailee80@ErikaCA47@TheDemocrats Well Iโm sure it was some type of insult about deserts, but youโre too chicken shit to own it. Abdul was born in Rochester Hills Michigan.
Youโre a goddamn bigot.
