Philly sports phanatic, gamer, antiwar extremist. The fishhook theory is real. Black 🇺🇲 First. Expand the Castle Doctrine to vehicles & workplaces.

Democrats fail to call for a recorded vote and GOP passes its bill that cuts veteran disability benefits and forces veterans to pay more to use VA home loan benefits … on Veterans Day

This is the type of thing that would ideally be paid attention to and handled by party leadership. In this case, that would be Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Whip Katherine Clark.

This is less than 24 hours after they failed to whip members on a vote to impeach Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, which failed by a 210-204 vote margin with 11 absent Dem members.

[Dr. Adam Hamawy @HamawyForNJ]

Today, we honor all those who stepped up to serve our country & remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Let us recommit today to ensuring our vets receive the benefits they earned when they get home.

@TheExceptionGG @kkondik Sounds like it is possible then. Musk won't fund them forever. He's a draft-dodging coward who only cares about himself.

[Covie @covie_93]

trump building an arch to block the view of Arlington Cemetery and hegseth with his crew taking photos laughing near the tomb of the unknown soldier shows this administration has no respect for the people who gave their lives in service of their country.

[Jared Ryan Sears @JaredRyanSears]

Some Democrats are using the excuse that they were stuck in traffic for missing a vote.

They are paid $174,000 with incredible benefits, but haven't learned to show up early so they don't miss votes when something comes up.

Meanwhile, millions of Americans work low-paying jobs where they can be fired for showing up 15 minutes late one time.

We need to send more people to Congress who know what it is like to work for a living and get rid of those who think it is a country club.

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

ABSOLUTELY INSANE.

THE HOUSE DEMOCRATIC ****WHIP**** WAS THROWING THE FUNDRAISING BASH THAT KEPT DEMOCRATS FROM VOTING TO SEND THE HEGSETH IMPEACHMENT VOTE TO THE FLOOR.

[Julian Andreone @JulianAndreone]

Katherine Clark is the Democratic Whip in the House, and it is thus her responsibility to ensure members are there to vote.

Clark is also a founding member of EDW, which hosted an event tonight from 4:30pm to 6:30pm, overlapping with the 5:30pm vote on the Hegseth impeachment.

Of the 11 members who missed the Hegseth vote, 8 have received support from EDW or its AIPAC-tied super PAC EDW Action. Of those 8, two are sitting board members.

[Nathan J Robinson @NathanJRobinson]

It has become immediately clear why Democrats will fail to accomplish anything unless they oust their leadership. The current party leadership is actively committed to ensuring that nothing is accomplished.

[David Shuster @DavidShuster]

Sure, house Dems will have 259 seats in January instead of current 213. And Hegseth impeachment can be reintroduced. But Hakeem having 11 Dem absences today on Hegseth (thus losing vote) reveals a Hakeem leadership problem. Embarrassing.

[Krystal Ball @krystalball]

Jeffries is making the case against himself.

[Krystal Ball @krystalball]

You've got to be kidding

[Power to the People ☭🕊 @ProudSocialist]

Here are the 11 Democrats who couldn’t be bothered to show up to impeach war criminal Pete Hegseth:

Nancy Pelosi (CA-11)
Haley Stevens (MI-11)
Julia Brownley (CA-26)
Lou Correa (CA-46)
Laura Gillen (NY-4)
Steven Horsford (NV-4)
Jonathan Jackson (IL-1)
Brittany Pettersen (CO-7)
Melanie Stansbury (NM-1)
Marilyn Strickland (WA-10)
Frederica Wilson (FL-24)

If these 11 Democrats had showed up, Hegseth would’ve been impeached 215-211.

There are no excuses left to make. The Democrats couldn’t even show up to hold a war criminal accountable who bombed an elementary school and mass murdered children.

Love this. 2 badass freshmen who won't take shit from ineffective leadership.

[Angela Gonzales-Torres @Angela4CA]

It was great meeting Representative-elect Don Leonard. The American people voted for authenticity and truth.

Angelenos voted to ensure we do everything we can to block the bombs and end citizens united.

@covie_93 And 11 cowardly democrats handed him a lifeline by refusing to vote

WE GIVE THEM A BLUE TSUNAMI AND THEY IMMEDIATELY START SQUANDERING IT IN MULTIPLE WAYS

[Rick "Castle Doctrine" Moskeson 🕊 @phillylefty]

You're off to a terrible start letting Hegseth's impeachment go down

Democrats must use our new power boldly.

@kate_p45 @jamiedupree If you don't like our elections then go back to Sicily. You'd likely be happier there.

@HouseDemocrats Failure of leadership. Community note well deserved.
