TLDR: Mike Johnson hates proxy voting in congress. Some republican wanted to allow new parents to be able to use proxy voting. One of them is trying to force a vote on it

Mike Johnson tried changing the rules to not allow that, but 9 republicans joined dems to block his attempt. He’s pissed about it and canceling tons of votes because of it

    As ashamed as Democrats should be of their performance and platform last election,

    Yeah. It’s the Dems’ fault. They should have run a senile old fat white serial rapist felon with a written plan to destroy the country; then they would have had a 50-50 chance, right? Foolish Dems!

    So I don’t need to read the rest of your piece. And I’m sorry you wrote all that, but we don’t stay for the tenor if he can’t even clear his throat.
