I'm sorry that Diamond died, but I'm even sorrier that she spread anti-vax propaganda. Who knows how many people she killed with that message?

@atrupar @RepMTG with makeup & lipstick is still a filthy pig.

@RonFilipkowski #Insurrectionist #GQP @RepGosar proposes a “real investigation” the results of which he already has included in his announcement.

@ruthbenghiat More appropriate for what #KevinMcCarthy has accomplished.

@libforlife1 Let the Speaker wear the announcement! #KevinMcCarthy

@suchitrav The “geniuses” criticising the understandable outrage of this woman don’t seem to realise that she’s from the UK. She’s in the US because of her husband’s military attachment. Maybe the Islamists who criticise India should move to oppressive Islamic countries! #India

@PreetBharara When McCarthy becomes the Speaker who exactly would be the listeners?!

[Sean Casten @SeanCasten]

If McCarthy wins tonight, it will be because - on January 6, of all days - he put members who were implicated in J6 in positions of great power. Will the so-called "moderate" Rs object, or will they simply repeat the "silence of our friends" mistake they made 2 years ago?

Keeping one’s oath to the #Constitution is heroism these days! 🤦🏼‍♂️

#MikePence is an enemy of progress, fairness, and freedom. He is unworthy of national stage. Period.

“[Mike] Pence did more to protect democracy—both on January 6 and since—than any other person inside the Trump administration,” Jonathan V. Last wrote last year. “While Pence may not be the hero you or I might have wanted, he was the hero America needed.” https://t.co/GH3olumq5J

@irishrygirl The R’s have so many non-stop talkers but can’t select a speaker.

If they do elect a Speaker, expect black smoke, not white.

[Roger Kaplan @roger_kaplan]

@JCrongeyer He has a brain?! Where did you read about it? Source, please!

[Roger Kaplan @roger_kaplan]

It would be much better for the country if McCarthy, who wants the Speakership title so desperately, to follow the great #GeorgeSantos and just simply claim on his résumé that he is the Speaker.

Then we can elect #HakeemJeffries as the real Speaker.

Bobo @laurenboebert would prefer one of the QAnon cavemen who broke into the “People’s House” on January 6, 2921.

How do these “geniuses” who can barely get a GED certificate get elected to the Congress?!

Oh, I forgot, our government is a “representative” democracy. Ok.

Rep. @laurenboebert: "I don't think that I can support any current leadership."

[Roger Kaplan @roger_kaplan]

@laurenboebert can easily take the first step to put the country back on track if she and her crazy GOP cult resign from the House.

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

What goes round comes round. The right-wing habits of chaos and betrayal the GOP unleashed against the American Republic on Jan. 6 are now destroying Lincoln’s party. The sedition you feed is the sedition that feeds on you.

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

All of these people laughing at Santos miss the point. He's in. He's a member of Congress. Another Majorie Taylor Greene. Another Matt Gaetz. Another Lauren Boebert. They just keep getting elected. These wildly unfit disaster agents. THAT'S THE POINT and the PROBLEM.

[Roger Kaplan @roger_kaplan]

@RonFilipkowski “Look like”?! 🤣🤣🤣
