So, we're in for two years of plain nonsense from the House. Is that about right?

[Jim Staton @Staton4State]

It's fantastic to now live in a blue congressional district. Sadly, the illegal gerrymandered maps saved the most corrupt gop state gov in the country. Now with our ridiculously partisan supreme court, the gerrymander will be sanctified and our steady decline will continue.

update from colleagues @alizaslav and @tedbarrettcnn:

Lindsey Graham didn't wear a tie for the occasion of Ketanji Brown Jackson's confirmation to become the 1st black woman on the Supreme Court

that meant he wasn't allowed on the Senate floor and voted "no" from the cloakroom

With the unanimous agreement of the Senate, this 418-6 House vote calling for a war crimes investigation of Putin’s onslaught against Ukraine raises the question:

What in God’s name is wrong with those six so-called Republicans?

Rep. Liz Cheney bashed Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) for being a “useful idiot” for Russia.

Who agrees with her? ✋

[Jim Staton @Staton4State]

@thehill @LindseyGrahamSC No one who was unanimously found highly qualified by the ABA, actually practiced law and presided over trials would ever be approved by a GOP majority. We believe you.

Judge Jackson’s confirmation was a historic moment for our nation. We’ve taken another step toward making our highest court reflect the diversity of America. She will be an incredible Justice, and I was honored to share this moment with her.

Proud to take part in the #BannedBookChallenge!

@Acyn They've beclowned themselves again.

For those who are asking:

[Jim Staton @Staton4State]

@JoeBiden Wow!! A justice who actually practiced law, trued cases and heard appeals! What a refreshing change.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Congratulations, Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Dennis Hastert was Speaker of the House from 1999 to 2007 and within 2 heartbeats of the presidency. He was indicted on federal charges of molesting 4 young boys and sentenced to 15 months in prison.

Republicans wouldn't know a groomer if he was their ranking member in Congress.

[No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen @NoLieWithBTC]

Republican senators and staffers stormed out in anger as the first Black woman was confirmed to the highest court in America. Don’t ever forget what we all just saw.

Recently sitting at a restaurant bar in Dallas & the Bartender changed the tv to Fox News. I was shocked when the entire bar started booing Fox immediately. Needless to say he changed the channel, everyone applauded. It gave me a glimmer of hope. Fox was booed in Texas y’all. 🤯

[Jim Staton @Staton4State]

@joncoopertweets Yes.

The House and Senate have bills that extend the eligibility period for VA care for burn pit-related health impacts from five years after leaving the military to ten and open enrollment to those who served in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Get legislation to my desk — I will sign it.

[Chris Turner @ChrisGTurner]

I was honored to be at President Biden’s speech in Fort Worth today and am so grateful for his leadership.

The moral clarity and certitude with which he spoke about ensuring veterans receive the benefits they have earned was unmistakable. #txlege
