I wonder if the Rās voting ānoā has something to do with thisā¦?
Jeffries seems to have joined the fight.
Sadly, I find this to be true more and moreā¦
Heās still going as of 11:07am (est)ā¦
Iām think Iām here at this point
I can accept that. Fuck 'em, I aināt going fucking nowhere!
I didnāt know that the House had an equivalent of the Filibuster. But now Iām reading that House Leaders have unlimited speaking time. Good to see him put that privilege to use! I hope that he breaks some records today, and that we can expect more of this in the future.
Itās not even a formal rule. Itās just tradition. Which makes me wonder why Johnson hasnāt invoked some bullshit formal rule to stop it. Itās not like he cares about political norms. It makes me wonder . . .
Nancy Pelosi did this a while back, went on for 8? 12? hours
(Looks it up)
It was 8, back in 2018
Kevin McCarthy did it once, too.
The vote is happening right nowā¦
Only 1 Republican NO vote so far. Fuuuuckā¦
Yeah, looks like 13 people still have not votedā¦
Now only 10 have to voteā¦
Now 2 no votes from the Republicans, with 6 left to vote. Need 3 more republican nos, but the yes votes are ahead.
I honestly do not expect a dramatic McCain no here.
2 votes left, with yes 2 ahead. What happens if itās a tie?
And one of the last 2 hold outs just voted yes. Fuckers.
