    If they are at a stand still, cut off their pay checks AND bribe money.

    This congressman is just trying to explain away the lack of willingness of Dems to restore bipartisan cooperation to the house. Someone needs to be the adult in the room, we know that the GOP is screwed because of Trump, so it needs to be Dems. IF Dems are smart they can choose the most sane member of the GOP for speaker and it will probably get enough GOP votes to make it happen. Instead they will cling to belligerence and inevitably spend the next year lamenting how Biden cannot get anything done under speaker Jordan, completely lacking the self awareness that they could have made a difference and chose not to because they thought there was political gain in a GOP extremist becoming speaker. I have no respect for anyone who ignores that bipartisan compromise is what the framers intended and instead foments chaos to make political gains from the optics.

    Love this guy. So passionate, organized, committed, intelligent, well-informed, hard-working and caring. If only we had a country of Maxwell Frosts without the Eric Trumps and the Lauren Boeberts and crazies of the GOP.

    Why should they? McCarthy and Republicans denigrate and lie about Democrats every day. They are conducting politically driven sham impeachment hearings into the sitting Democratic president, and McCarthy unilaterally started those hearings. McCarthy has done zero to work with Democrats or try to build even a smidgen of trust. Democrats vote for their own speaker, why would they vote for a Republican speaker?

    If you want to own (and jerk off) with handguns, shootguns, sniperrifles and assaultrifles more power to you. But an 18 year old should never be allowed to buy military grade rifles.

    The answer to “Why didn’t Democrats save Kevin McCarty?” is “Because he did very poorly at his job.” 🤷‍♀

    Thanks for reminding us that there are also representatives in congress that understand the problems, look for solutions and work towards fixing the issues.

    Just another reason to rid the people in this country of firearms screw the Second Amendment because nobody really understands the interpretation and foundation behind those words.

    No More Pain, No More Suffering
    RIP to all those who perished senselessly at the hands of those who COWARDLY use firearms approved by the United States of America.
     
    Take your finger off the trigger.
    Leave your gun at home.
    Put away all the bullets.
    Lock it up, leave it alone.

    Ain’t nobody gonna to die.
    By your hand on this day. 
    Put away all the bullets.
    See the children laugh and play.

    Hey now now, every breath we share 
    Hey now now, made by mouths everywhere.
    Hey now now, every moment we waste
    Hey now, Is a moment we must bare. 

    If you sit and contemplate.
    If you stare at what’s to come.
    Reaching out, crying for help.
    No one to hide the gun.

    No more pain, no more suffering.
    No more deaths to come.
    No laws to control me.
    ‘Til the damage is all done.

    Hey now now, ain’t nobody give a damn.
    Hey now now, ain’t no one who really cares.
    Hey now now, only more pain.
    Hey now, anytime or anywhere.

    No more pain, no more suffering.
    Shouldn’t come to this.
    If someone was to listen.
    There’d be less of those to miss.

    No more pain, no more suffering.
    Almost normal to me.
    Our lives are in your hands.
    Not just the criminality.

    No more pain, no more suffering
    No more pain, no more suffering
    No more pain, no more suffering

    Rest in Peace 🙏
    Humble Driver

    Office of gun violence prevention.
    You’d think this concept would be universally acceptable to all parties.
    Not one republican voted to approve this office.
    The party of pro life my @$$!

    The Democrats didn’t save McCarthy because their entire party is as stupid, childish and unprofessional as the Gaetz 8. They have now been instrumental in crippling the House entirely. Oh how we need adult supervision in Congress more than ever before.
