Rep. Joseph Morelle of New York, the top Democrat on the House Administration Committee, sent a letter to colleagues informing them of his intent to file the resolution, which would kickstart what’s traditionally a cumbersome amendment process.
“This amendment will do what SCOTUS failed to do — prioritize our democracy,” Morelle said in a statement to AP.
What’s he waiting for then?
He’s too virtuous. He hasn’t processed that anything he does is legal.
So he leads be example. Or something.
Maybe someone should explain it to him before 4 PM?
It feels so Game of Thrones-ish. Democrats are going to act all high and mighty and virtuous, while Republicans are just going to be like Cersei Lannister, “Is this meant to be your shield, Lord Stark? A piece of paper?” Republicans will run them through and sleep well knowing they won, without a guilty conscience. The President should be acting now to protect the country, not waiting for the wolves to get into the hen house and then wringing their hands that there was nothing they could do about it.
That’s pretty much it. Republicans are bring out the spiked maces and Dems are just trying to fisticuff they’re way out of it. Because virtue.
Not even fisticuffs. They’re filing a motion to discourage mace spikes over a certain length.
Pending the approval of some unelected clerk rando with only symbolic authority, of course.
Obi Wan is our only hope 😔, and I think he has registered it yet.
After 11, but before 4, and not between 12:30 and 14:00 because that’s naptime
