Kamlager-Dove on Hegseth Impeachment: We knew that this vote was coming, so people should have gotten their raggedy selves up these steps to vote. There is no reason why we should have lost this vote because of attendance issues.

You know this man should not be in this position. That’s why he got up at 8 o’clock in the morning with his sorry self to plead to the American people.

So shame on folks who are not here. Because these people lost. They lost, and they still found a way to show up to table this bill. Shameful.

It’s outrageous. Beyond belief. And what was leadership doing to make sure members were getting their asses to the floor?

Abdul El-Sayed's message to the 11 Dems who were absent for the Hegseth vote:

"Show up and do your job."

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

As a former commander-in-chief, I’ve had the honor of meeting with our nation’s servicemembers and military spouses over the years. Hearing their stories and seeing their courage fundamentally changes who you are, and reminds you what living your values actually looks like. Thank you to all the veterans who have bravely served our country.

His lack of empathy is disturbing.

🚨Holy Shit! Pete Hegseth’s group was just YELLED AT by a guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier after they were heard LAUGHING.

Guard: “Maintain an atmosphere of SILENCE! Maintain RESPECT at all times!!!!” Shame on Pete Hegseth.

We are in a constitutional crisis.👇

Attorney General Todd Blanche once again threatened to prosecute newly elected Democrats for speech promising accountability for President Donald Trump and his cabinet. https://t.co/sl5AJifA5y

I’m old enough to remember Republicans completely losing it when they falsely accused Zohran Mamdani and AOC of laughing at the 9/11 memorial.

Where are all their angry tweets today?

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Bye, Felicia.

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

Okay, let’s reason this out. Thinking caps 𝗢𝗡.

If Hegseth committed high crimes or misdemeanors, and if he did them at the behest of, or on behalf of, or in cahoots with, someone else, say, I don’t know … uh … let’s assume the president of the United States … that would mean .…

Gosh, I’m stumped. I know there’s a logical conclusion here that should be obvious, but it’s just escaping me.

Could it mean that someone else has committed impeachable, removable acts too??

If so, who would that be?? Just completely stumped. But I feel strongly there must be a clear answer.

Damn, this is almost as hard as the president’s cognitive tests.

Can anyone out there help? @Grok, do you know?

[Tara Copp @TaraCopp]

A security agent for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth just warned the reporters here — for Hegseth’s first press conference in 6 months — that we will be physically removed from the briefing room if we are not professional and maintain decorum. We asked if that meant no shouted questions and got no clarity. It’s the first time any of us could ever remember being threatened like this. Shouted questions are normal. “This is crazy town” one journalist said, noting the White House has never threatened reporters like that. We’re in the room, back row:

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨JUST IN: Donald Trump completely loses his shit during his presser.

TRUMP: “Who are you with?
MSNBC it's a fake, that's a fake deal. I won't even take your question. MSNBC gets the worst ratings in their history. Used to be MSDNC. It's one of the worst,
you're a fake network. MSNBC, what a joke you are.”

Seems like he’s taking the historic loss very well.

Last week ICE agents used restraints while detaining an eight year-old child when he showed up for a scheduled immigration appointment.

There is no excuse for traumatizing a child and taking him away from his community and his classmates.

ICE's brutal enforcement tactics have to stop. My colleagues and I are demanding answers on why he was detained and with such cruelty.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Over the weekend, ICE agents detained two US citizens and blocked emergency vehicles from entering Adventist Health White Memorial Medical Center in Boyle Heights without the hospital's approval.

ICE's brutal tactics have already terrorized our communities, and now they are compromising Californians' ability to receive lifesaving health care.

It is unacceptable for patients to feel unsafe because of the presence of lawless federal agents at a hospital. ICE agents will be held accountable for their actions.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Rep. Thomas Massie is introducing EIGHT articles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth, for issuing/carrying out unlawful orders.

Let's fucking go.
Hegseth's gotta GO.

[Andrea Junker @Strandjunker]

Everyone knew about Russell Brand. Everyone knew about Diddy, R. Kelly, Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, and Jeffrey Epstein. Everyone knew about Donald Trump. I’m so tired of people protecting rich perverts, keeping their dark secrets for decades. So damn tired.

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Rep. Jamie Raskin just went on live TV and made clear that it is REPUBLICANS who have turned the government into an apparatus of retribution. Every time Republicans scream about RETRIBUTION, it's an admission. Make sure every American sees this.

[Molly Jong-Fast @MollyJongFast]

Fired by Pete Hegseth and now will likely vote on his impeachment unless he’s resigned before January

[Richard W. Painter @RWPUSA]

Subpoena time.
Among the first up should be the man responsible for illegal use of force, including the murder of two U.S. citizens, be federal agents in Minnesota last winter.

Unless RFK Jr. is interested in spending the next two years in front of Congressional committees, he should go ahead and resign now.
