If you have not read the Denounce #Socialism Bill the #GOP passed I encourage all Americans to read it. This bill is non-binding & will serve no purpose but to throw red meat to the Republican base.

The inner language of the bill says nothing and held up the 435 member #Congress & staff for no reason. They included Lenin, Stalin, Bolshevik, King Jong (isn’t their leader #Trump friends with that guy?) and others in this baseless bill. #Politics #WasteOfMoney #WasteOfTime #118thCongress

I think Representatives should be forced to sing the national anthem and pledge allegiance not only at the beginning of a meeting, but after EVERY break and at least once an hour during the meetings just to make sure it sticks.

"Republicans' petty and self-destructive enthusiasm for it is just another reminder that they've become a party devoted to being terrible for its own sake." #GQP #118thCongress

Effing around with the dept ceiling, will most certainly weaken the $$$. Is it really the time to poke the bear? Covid put a big strain on the economy. Putin with BRICS is challenging the market. Seems to me, Reps really are chaos agents. Buckle up!

Will Bunch: Exhuming McCarthy: How minority rule could implode U.S. democracy in 2023

"In the end, he couldn’t even get 218 votes, a simple majority. The GOP’s Kevin McCarthy gained the House speakership in the dead of night early Saturday, but the last winner of a 15-rounder who emerged this battered and bloody was Muhammad Ali, who told reporters after 1975′s “Thrilla in Manila” that “it was like death.”

This clip, along with dozens of others from the opening of the #118thCongress, was filmed with C-SPAN cameras.

Here's C-SPAN's request for our cameras to be allowed in the U.S. House chamber for greater transparency of the House floor proceedings.
