My God....

Removed for violating Twitter rules. Anyone have a summary?

It was basically a what did you expect to happen when my landslide election was stolen from me.

I'm completely embarrassed.  We need Christ so badly!

God helps those who help themselves.

Physician, heal thyself.

Dear Senators,

Nice speech. Well written. Bravo. Maybe just tweet it out though. You don't need to use up all five minutes. Certify the results.

Thanks

She's trash.  Can NY gerrymander this worthless moron into oblivion?

You've asked this question many times so let me answer, if HR1 does not pass, NY Dems will draw the maps, there is no way to screw her over, her seat is a GOP sink that actually supports the map, and you want to pack as many GOP votes there as possible, if anything she might lose Plattsburgh, if Democrats want to go scorched her, but drawing her out is very, very stupid.

Sorry, I ask but these threads move fast and I don't see the response.  It looks like NY will lose 2 seats though.  If that happens, who are the two most likely to lose out?

Brindisi will likely be drawn in with either Katko or Stefanik, and one downstate seat will be lost. Most likely.

I thought Twitter banned him for 12 hours?  How is he tweeting?

One of the tweets called Vice President Mike Pence a coward for not helping Trump illegally reverse his election loss. Another praised the Capitol rioters. And a third was a video message in which Trump falsely claimed that the presidential election was fraudulent before telling rioters to go home.

It's one of the tweets that Twitter deleted earlier. As happens often on the Internet, someone archived it.

Hello there.

[Interlocutor is just not there yet]

Honestly I don't care to nor condone attacking Republicans who are standing against Trump and his rioters. People like Mitch have done a lot of bad, but it isn't about that stuff right now. Its about the fundamentals of democracy. We should accept all the help we get in defending it.

They've been eroding democracy and festering demonization for 30+ years. This is the latest development in a narrative that goes thru Trump, McConnell, Dubya, Gingrich, etc. I'm not giving them brownie points or sympathy if they feel the line ends with the 1-2 of the delegitimization of a presidential election and the storming of the US Capitol

You're right, and these Republicans shouldn't be treated like FFs for speaking out against the coup attempt. That said, we gotta take every minor win.

It's mind-boggling that a GOP politician condemning the storming of the US Capitol, incited by the GOP President, should be considered a "minor win".

The lack of law enforcement response didn't shock me, but storming itself didn't shock me, but this does.

No, Christ worshipping is what got us this.  You people never learn.  Ever.

Not true. Please do not lump those of us who are not modern-day Pharisees calling themselves Christians for the benefit of political power.

Yes, his presidential campaign was a missed opportunity.

[Alben Barkley]

This was the closest thing we’ve ever seen to a Beer Hall Putsch or Mussolini March on Rome. If Trump had actually led the mob to the Capitol it would be effectively indistinguishable.

That’s pretty terrifying.

VARepublican has been pushing for everyone to adopt an avatar. I think this helps his effort.

Doesn't the law require 2 hours of debate before voting to certify?

*Up to* 2 hours of debate. They could vote to end at any time.
