The GOP chair was caught off guard and scrambled—first delaying the vote, then trying to sabotage it by adding amendments to include Biden administration communications. Democrats called their bluff and agreed.
Then the GOP chair, Rep. Higgins, lied, claiming the motion FAILED until Rep. Robert Garcia forced a full roll call vote.
Ultimately, the vote passed 8-2 after 3 Republicans DEFIED their leadership and joined all 5 Democrats to pass the motion.
Can’t we just celebrate a win for once without saying they’re not doing enough? This is a good thing any way you look at it.
I think it’s hard to take the DNC seriously when they still let Chuck Shumer drone people to sleep, I mean, speak for the party.
They’ve snubbed their own party’s progressive caucus for brain dead geriatrics.
Their leadership has blatantly benefited from insider trading and social welfare while failing to achieve those policies for their constituents.
Every day the DNC looks more and more like a broken clock that’s only only right when it’s 2 minutes to midnight.
They really, really, don’t deserve applause at this point. They deserve to be replaced.
Im so tired of this site competing for who is the furthest left leaning. We all want a better future. But we can’t get that if we dont put this fascism shit down before it gets terminal.
You’re right, it’s exhausting.
The guys who are still trying to work with republicans while Alligator Auschwitz exists are not fighting fascism, their policies allowed the fascists to take control and now they are trying to work with the fascists.
Hell yeah brother, say it loud.
Too soon

We should celebrate the win for sure! But calling it “spine growth” is delusional, wishful thinking.
Both can be true.
Nope. They fucked up long enough. No cookie until it’s all fixed. Buck up.
