Texas’ Abbott says Dems who ‘fled’ state over elections bill will be arrested upon return

Interesting...you could say it's "a Capitol offense." Will there be public hangings?

 

Here's a sad picture for our times.... They have a live shot of the Texas Dems up in DC this AM, and most of them are fanning themselves with paper.

Texans bothered by the heat/humidity in Washington... TEXANS...

Where is Autumn????

 

They are just as lawless as the 6 January rioters.

Texas governor says Democratic lawmakers who left state to block voting restrictions law could face arrest on return
State Democratic leaders said they plan to pressure Congress to pass new federal voting legislation. They will need to stay out of Texas for weeks to prevent a quorum for the 30-day session.

Two out of three.... But sure, fixate on the negative....

 

BTW, how many of the January 6th protest have been charged with sedition?

 

Absolutely. When the opposition doubles down on their false statement ? That gets bookmarked for future use.

Hmmmmmmm, who else do we know has been doubling down on false statements for the past 4 years and was voted out ? This is strangely familiar.

 

The same number of times Trump has been indicted for felony obstruction, as detailed in the Mueller report.

 

You have your answer here:

We didn't need to read that to know the answer is zero.

 

I hope he does. That will piss off the Dem voters so much come 2022.

 

Not
On
SCOTUS

The R Senate leader used procedural rules to prevent the Garland SCOTUS nomination advancing to the floor for a vote. As you well know.
Now maybe you will have the courage or courtesy to answer the question: do you think it is ok for legislators to use legislative rules to achieve their objectives?

 

Biden hasn’t been in a year get and he wins lies hands down.

 

I notice a trend here. Republicans following the rules of the Senate are bastages but democrats not following the rules are angels.

 

TX House votes 76-4 to send the Sergeant-at-Arms to detain or arrest fleeing members.

 

There's this thing called Preparation H. IT's sold lots of places.

 

TX democrats show how little they think of democracy.

 

Yeah, they followed the rules unlike TX democrats.

 

TX democrats were singing “We shall overcome” in DC.

Shotgunning beers on a private plane for an all expense taxpayer paid vacation to DC, no different than Selma.

 

“If these Texas election reforms were made law today, not a single voter would notice. The only people who would notice are the Democrat activists that try to fill out other people’s ballots.”. ~ Dan Crenshaw

 

He sorta' like muzak box, only play one tune....

 

Yep, BOTH sides use 'em to their advantage when they can....or haven't you noticed?

 

What is the charge?

 

what rule are they not following?

 

i think republicans are going to be in big trouble soon

more and more people realize that they can vote against oligarchy

just look at the recent presidential election for example

the best part was how biden told trump to shut-up on national tv, then took his job, house, planes and cars

 

Just like these Oregon cowards?

Oregon's 2020 Legislative Session Ends With Little To Show After Republican Walkout - OPB

Just making sure we're not being hypocritical.

The rules governing a quorum are what they are. I presume they are set up that way for a reason. Given how infrequently this stuff happens, one party sabotaging a vote in this manner, I would say it's not a really a problem to solve.

The real problem is when one party firmly believes in something and is willing to take this sort of action, it should encourage the other party to rethink what it's proposing. Just as it should have in my example above in Oregon.
