“This is not partisan. It is about principle.”

Well, no. “Principles” are a Democrat thing. Totally partisan, more’s the pity.

Great! And it’s not a lot but 11 repubs agreeing is somewhat heartening.

Sadly, that makes it partisan. Republicans only vote for decency when they are forced to.

Well, well, well…

11 GOPpers joined in, huh?

Had a suspicion this might be the case - at least Faux Noise and the other nutcase news organizations will have to work at making it a partisan attack, won’t they?

It won’t stop her. It will embolden her position that she’s being victimized. But I applaud Hoyer for what he did in walking around the FB page. Nicely done, sir.

“You left it to us to do your job,” Hoyer blazed at the Republican side of the chamber, adding: “This is not partisan, it’s about principle.”

This is also about the rise of domestic white terrorism. It surely has no place being espoused by white congresspeople.

I suspect if there’s a trend, we might see a little more reaching across the aisle in the House than was anticipated.

I hope this is the first of many Democratic actions to make republicans accountable for their incitement.

Yeah. Nice to control the White House, the Senate (barely) and the House (less barely).

Thank you for your continued support.

Someone needs to tell Joni Ernst that this is what political castration looks like.
