āJeffries didnāt even whip the vote,ā one critic said about the House minority leader, who wants to be speaker. āThis is why people want a stronger leader.ā
As House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries seeks to become speaker when Democrats retake Congress in January, critics questioned his leadership Tuesday after the Republican-led lower chamber effectively blocked a bid to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth by just seven votesāan outcome that may have been averted if more Democrats showed up to vote.
The 211-204 procedural vote effectively torpedoed Congressman Thomas Massieās attempt to impeach Hegseth by sending the outgoing Kentucky Republicanās resolution to the House Judiciary Committee, where it will likely gather dust during the remainder of the GOP-controlled congressional term.
Whatās crazy is you saw the last 2 years and are arguing about the process. You learned nothing under this dictatorship. The rules donāt mean anything. They do whatever they want. Only when democrats want to do something itās theater or about following processes. Our politicians, both left and right, have WAY more power than they let on. The red tape is is self imposed. When enough people get angry we can make massive change and if you ask me the American people need to see things being done. All beauocracy is theatre and maybe if the left actually put some theater for us more people would get mad and actually do something.
It is sad that you see giving up as a valid option. When the cards you want arenāt on the table you flip the fucking table. It sounds ridiculous but peopleās lives are at stake. Do you even care about all the people that will die because they will be priced out of their life saving medications? I guess fighting for healthcare is performative too.
Notice how you didnāt lay out the sequence of events you expected. You seem confused about the difference between congress and executive orders, you might want to check that out. Or you can just virtue signal into the void yet again.
