“Rep. Rose DeLauro (R-CT) was denounced by GOP lawmakers - but she may have been right.”
She was absolutely right… by removing the section calling for an automatic cost of living raise, it would have gone into effect, and given about an $8,000 raise to these failures who chose not to work over the summer to do their job.
And Rose is a (very amazing) democrat, not a republican… typos happen.
Today's NPR Morning Edition has an excellent six-minute overview of cases now facing the Supreme Court, all of which are from the Fifth Circuit Appeals Court (Texas and Louisiana).
GAETZ. "I think we need to move on with new leadership that can be trustworthy," Gaetz told CNN's 'State of the Union,’ as he again accused McCarthy of not honoring his promises to conservatives.
PS. Gaetz recognizes his own weakness so clearly in those
Jamie, On the pay raise thing. Are you saying they don’t really know what it all means? How is that possible?
I had to laugh about Rosa L. I was a Connecticut Yankee and knew her well before moving to Montana back in the 90s when was still a nice place to live.
OK, so you posted the link to the Congressional Record and now I have a question. Rep. Clark made the motion to adjourn so the Dems would have time to read the Continuing Resolution. Then they took a vote on the motion and the result was "yeas 0, nays 427", with 6 abstaining. What the heck? What was the point of that?
The arguments against Ukraine support have never been coherent. Most war discussions I can understand the other side’s reasoning. But this instance is just a bunch of folks throwing tantrums.
I agree with the concern about involving our military, but I don’t have a problem with the arms supplying. One would think those who oppose the Ukraine funding would get together. Or is there plan to just imitate New York artists & flinging excrement.
Jamie, what is quorum for House votes. 50% + 1? For a vote to depose McCarthy, could they just "not make it to the floor" in time and this not be ok the record?
“Is Gaetz secretly an agent for the Democratic Party? No one else is doing as much to undermine, weaken and cripple the House GOP,” Gingrich tweeted.
Gee, Mr. Speaker, I wonder how we ended up with someone as odious as Matt Gaetz in the U.S. House. Gingrich’s lack of self-awareness is stunning.

Rap Sheet, it won't surprise me if the majority of arrested are from "The Sunshine State"...

That makes perfect sense. Thanks Jamie!
“Just think if the GOP spent as much time focused on policy as infighting.”
Yes, the poor would be poorer, the rich would be richer, the poorly educated would be even more poorly educated, and the sick would be dead.
Let’s hope they do nothing but infighting for the rest of time.
