“Jeffries didn’t even whip the vote,” one critic said about the House minority leader, who wants to be speaker. “This is why people want a stronger leader.”
As House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries seeks to become speaker when Democrats retake Congress in January, critics questioned his leadership Tuesday after the Republican-led lower chamber effectively blocked a bid to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth by just seven votes—an outcome that may have been averted if more Democrats showed up to vote.
The 211-204 procedural vote effectively torpedoed Congressman Thomas Massie’s attempt to impeach Hegseth by sending the outgoing Kentucky Republican’s resolution to the House Judiciary Committee, where it will likely gather dust during the remainder of the GOP-controlled congressional term.
Americans aren’t getting out of the woods. Republicans aren’t leaving the White House regardless of what happens.
Cool then the states can mobilize the Nat Guard who will effectively be independent due to no Commander and Chief to drag the profligates out. Hell there’s a good chance the military as a whole would ignore it for similar reasons of there is no chief, point is there are less than civil ways of removing Trump. If it causes war we can complete what Sherman failed to do, though I doubt we’ll need to burn Atlanta this time 'round.
A few months ago comments like this were saying that the election was cancelled… Turns out being a doomer doesn’t actually accomplish anything.
