[Anna Komnene]

Thanks to Senator Blair for appointing me.  It'll be an honor to serve all of Atlasia for the first time.  I hope I can bring a unique perspective to debates!

And thanks to everyone for the congrats.

Only minor quibble is I am from Puerto Rico.  

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

Awesome! Siren was a great Speaker, and will do great things in the House.

Coming to a voting booth near you

Anyone who sends out "seasons greetings" Christmas cards is a terrorist sympathizer at best.

[Unconditional Surrender Truman]

One might be able to explain that as an off-color joke... if it weren't for everything else:

This is SANTANDER...

On his favorite foreign leaders

Marine Le Pen
Donald Trump
Geert Wilders
Viktor Orbán
Vladimir Putin

On why he likes Vladimir Putin

Mild FF. I'd outright admire him if he didn't essentially make himself president for life. I admire his piety and zealous defense of Christianity while our pathetic leaders in the godless West worry more about not offending minorities than fighting terrorism and promoting the values that made the West great in the first place. For centuries, Russia was the bulwark of Christendom, and under Putin, she is fulfilling her destiny once more.

On sexual assault

I respect Trump for having the humility to apologize where none was really needed.

On immigration

This is what I've been saying for a long time[...] immigrants from Asia are far more dangerous to the cultural integrity of our society.

As described by a fellow Federalist

Based on various conversations in IRC, I have come to know Santander as a racist quasi-fascist who supports ethnic cleansing and a ...morally dubious at best understanding of consent. I can no longer in good conscience support such a vile individual, and as such I motion to expel Santander from the Federalist Party.

He's like an infestation that refuses to die out.

And you CAN quote me on this.

[Santander]

Thank you. I was looking to compile my Greatest Hits, and you did all the hard work for me.

[Unconditional Surrender Truman]

Thank you. I was looking to compile my Greatest Hits, and you did all the hard work for me.

Anytime.

To think that he was going to run against Blair for President...

[Pragmatic Conservative]

Harry S Truman I do not condone these statements, and I am motioning for Santanders expulsion from the party.

Fact checking Time

Hmmmm, speaking of Witchhunts, I'm reminded of how Labor punishes anyone who dares to go against their mainstream, 1184AZ and Peebs come to mind in that regard. Get out of here, hypocrite.

We don't punish people in Labor. We're a welcoming family- like any family we have disagreements and like every family we work them out, and come back stronger. Ask Southern Gothic- who recently rejoined Labor, ask Peebs who I've helped back into Labor, ask Griffin who rather than ‘punishing’ me made Chair, and Truman Vice-Chair. We don’t punish people in Labor.

However, being that I do not want our party to become like the other tyrannical one (Labor), I will withdraw my motion. I understand why 1184AZ felt the need to do this, he is used to Labor, where any difference of opinion is squashed and opposed in the name of Labor Victory. Again, motion withdrawn.

You’re talking to someone who was made Chair after primarying a Labor President.

I am aware of the hateful messages Peebs  received after agreeing to be Tmth's VP, and in the Vice-Chair race certain people again expressed this.

I sent Peebs a single message saying ‘you could have at least told me’ when she declared. I didn’t send any hateful messages.

I didn’t even campaign in the Vice Chair race, and I stayed neutral for out the whole race. Both Truman and Peebs will confirm that- I didn’t even vote. Hardly the tyrannical leader.

There's no point engaging - it's not worth it.

[Blair]

As there is a vacancy in the house from 1184AZ resigning I hereby appoint Clyde to serve in the House until the new session swears in.

X Blair, Labor Chair

[Blair]

As LLR become the Senator for the Northeast there is another vacancy for the House. I hereby appoint Gass3268 to fill out the remainder of the term.

x Blair

[Blair]

Congrats to all the Labor candidates elected last night- we've kept the progressive majority in the House for the third term in a row. We've done a lot of great work in the House- closing tax loopholes for multi-national companies, passing a living wage, passing the LGBTQ+ civil rights bill and so much more.

Labor have also for the first time gained a clear majority in the Senate; I'm sure all members from the House and Senate will work together to usher in this new age of Atlasian prosperity.

[Blair]

As Rep. 1184AZ has resigned to become Deputy GM there is a vacancy in the House of Representatives to be appointed by the LNC.

I have already contacted some individuals about filling the vacancy, but if any other folk are interested send me a PM, and we'll be drawing up a shortlist. 

[Blair]

Speaker Drew is hereby appointed to the House of Representatives, to fill the vacancy of 1184AZ
 

[Terry the Fat Shark]

Speaker Drew is hereby appointed to the House of Representatives, to fill the vacancy of 1184AZ
 

Very good appointment, look forward to working with him

[Blair]

Per discussions I've had with party members, the Labor Caucus and other LNC members we're going to be holding our primaries for the April Elections next weekend between 31st-2nd

Candidates must be declared before Friday, and only Labor members registered before this post will be eligible to vote. I'm still trying to sort out all the admin for it, so if you have any questions send me a PM

[Drew]

Speaker Drew is hereby appointed to the House of Representatives, to fill the vacancy of 1184AZ
 

I appreciate Blair's support and I will be swearing in soon.  I look forward to serving in the House for working Atlasians across the land.
