Winners: Virginia Democrats
Losers: Everyone else

HR 5860 looks likely to pass. How long do we think it takes for Gaetz to file a motion to vacate?

Probably the moment after Ukrainian money gets passed in a similar fashion to this. Makes things even clearer for his allies. Maybe we should preemptively create the thread.

Reminder that multiple Dems from multiple places in the party have said McCarthy is not getting bailed out on a motion to vacate. Jeffries has said they would whip against him. So unless McCarthy gives some serious concessions, he's done.

Is now really the right time to do this? Dems probably should consider bailing him out honestly…

They are.  Why are you voting GOP, then?

I'll vote for anyone who doesn't close national parks.

The Biden regime could have chosen to use the contingency plan for national parks from the last shutdown. Instead, they are choosing not to.

Voting against labor and the party which seeks to give workers bargaining power because you couldn’t go glamping in Teton County is not exactly the take I would expect from a self proclaimed “populist” who even named his blog “The Lunchpail”, but I guess I was wrong!
