Eleven House Democrats did the rotating villain thing and saved him!
Pete Hegseth is unfit and unqualified to serve as Secretary of Defense. House Republicans just chose to protect him over American servicemembers.

Are you not able to count? Or did you think Democrats already had a majority in the House?

How exactly did this "save" Hegseth?

You think Massie was going to be able to pull off a Senate trial between now and January with only 20 days of session?

Can you develop an a priori argument for why you think Democrats secretly did not want to impeach Pete Hegseth

Low IQ Mehdi Hasan once again showing why he should be ignored. Zero strategic/political IQ in his body.

My guess is democrats did this to control the process later rather than allowing the republicans to control the process

It doesn’t make a difference and you know it! They didn’t have the impeachment vote.

Wait, am I missing something, or was the vote not about impeachment itself, but rather whether the resolution should be referred to the Judiciary Committee? Democrats opposed the referral, but Republicans had enough votes to pass it, effectively shelving the impeachment effort. And ultimately, even if the resolution had made it to the House floor, the vote on referral gives us little reason to expect Republican support for impeachment. Massie was the only Republican to oppose the referral, although that doesn't necessarily mean he would have been the only one to vote for impeachment.

“The Democrats impeached President Trump a second time and actually had a trial in the Senate when he was a private citizen.  Therefore, I propose the impeachment of every past president who is still alive for military operations in which they never received a declaration of war -- impeach them all and try them all -- as this is the new standard.  The same for every past, living SecDef and SecState.” - Mark L

The opposite. Had this passed now, house republicans would be leading the impeachment proceedings until Dems take over in Jan. Which seems like a stupid play. But you already knew that….

They would have lost anyway. Every Republican but Massie voted to refer to judiciary.

You and all of the other nattering Nellies here are embarrassing yourselves. It was a performative vote that was never going to pass, and it wasn't a part of a coherent plan of the sort Democrats need next year, when they have the numbers, to remove this regime's rats.

Oh I get it now. So ya’ll just want Dems to hug you and hold your hands so you can feel better, even when they don’t have the power to do anything more right now. This tweet is irresponsible.

Um excuse me, but what were the party votes like? Why is this all on Dems? Why is it at all on Dems?

Excuse me @HouseDemocrats @TheDemocrats ? Where is your leader? If my position of POWER was being challenged this was probably the right time to campaign for that with this easy lap up. Instead I do nothing and 11 party members show 0 respect for the American people and yourself @RepJeffries

You're a smart man. It's time you start acting like one. Republicans would have kept the vote open until they had enough votes to defeat it. Only one Republican votes with Dems. In the Senate, 20 would never cross over to YES. You know because till 3rd Jan Dems are 47

At this point I think it's just intentional on your part. There is no way you are this much of a retard.

How many people were absent for Republicans?

No they did not. Please stop this.

Don't perpetuate falsehoods! We know they were on their way and Johnson held the vote anyway. 7 GOP members were absent as well, so with everyone present, it would have failed.

I don’t think you understand what the vote was actually for.

Can you explain why Massie brought this now? Why not Jan when Dems have a huge majority?
20
Correct me if I am wrong, but isn’t it better to wait till January with impeachment when the democrats have the majority?

Can the Dems impeached the Dems that don't want to represent their voters ?

Medhi, you fucking moron. You know Damn well that even if all 11 were present, the vote would just be delayed until the other 7 Republicans were there. You're getting mind fucked by both lefties AND Republicans right now. You've become such a fucking tool.
18
Mehdi is such a clown and doesn’t release they didn’t even have a chance to vote cause the republicans fucked hom, Johnson pushed the vote forward and didn’t wait, way to play into republican hands you moron

Both parties are more or less same. Given that Americans don't have any alternative, they just vote to remove the party in power and choose the other bad option.
