If there was a valid reason why 11 Democrats didn’t show up to vote for Pete Hegseth’s impeachment, it needs to be communicated immediately and concisely to the public. This is one of those communication problems that the Democrats have. It makes them look really bad right after being elected to fight back. They should’ve been on the evening news shows to explain, if there was a reason….
It appears the whip scheduled cocktail hour during vote time.

And the likelihood Massie knew all of this is ....... HIGH. He's no pure saint, y'all. He knew what he was doing. Had he "won" Republicans would've controlled everything, including just calling a recess through the holidays & to Jan 3rd (thru pro forma sessions), or just tabling everything WHILE they controlled the narrative and optics and sowed MORE division amongst Dems.
Oh yes, Massie knew exactly what he was doing and the sooner Dems realize who the true asshole with no principles is, the better.
