Post #2533 by commonone on the US Policy board

If someone appears to be repeatedly personal, lean towards patience as they might not mean offense. If you are sure, however, then do not deepen the problem by being negative; instead, simply place them on ignore by clicking the unhappy yellow face to the right of their name.

Dope1: And before someone asks, yes: The Freedom Caucus beclowned themselves on this one. Right along with Jayapal and the progressive wing.

Umm, no.

This was a procedural vote to bring the bill to the floor for debate. The vote to begin debate is normally a formality that passes entirely along party lines. McCarthy couldn't keep his members united on this procedural vote, which is why democrats waited until it was clear that McCarthy didn't have the votes before stepping in and rescuing him. Democrats didn't need the votes of Jayapal and the progressive wing so let them vote 'no' to make their point to their constituents. McCarthy is no Pelosi... she kept her members in line.
