I will never get over the trying to shout louder like it’s a homecoming pep rally where the juniors and seniors are competing. Apparently it really IS up to the opinion of the Clerk who is actually louder. Hence the yelling.

Ok Kevin. What comes next? You've been freed. Do you know how hard it is to lead? You're on your own. Awesome. Wow! Do you have a clue what happens now. Oceans rise. Speakers fall. Now you're at this weirdos' beck and call. On your own. In that seat. When your people say they hate you.... Go cry to Marjorie.

I went to bed because there was no way I was staying up. I did check my phone at 2 when I got up to pee. Of course the fate of the House came down to fucking Gaetz.

At least it’s over. But lord. I don’t know. I’m tired and they haven’t even done anything substantial yet.

Her statement makes it seem like she left them once he collapsed and they went in the ambulance? Or was it while they went out? Either way, not good. I can’t imagine the thought process of leaving a toddler and a tiny infant, even in an emergency situation.

I can’t imagine the thought process of leaving a toddler and a tiny infant, even in an emergency situation. That is the same age as my kids when DH had us SCA. They all came to the ER with me. DD2 was 6 months that day and stayed strapped to me in the ICU when my MIL was able to take DD1 home 🤷♀️

Or like even beg a staff member to stay in the room for the 20 minutes til a friend arrives. I’m sure something could have been arranged quickly.

I just got back from getting groceries and ran into a bunch of neighbors chatting. Everyone was up late last night watching cpsan and we lost power around 630 am, which woke everyone up… so everyone is exhausted. I’d say that’s probably true for a lot of DC metro 😂

I keep seeing memes about last night, but Gaetz really was the cat Kevin & GOP were Taylor in that woman yelling meme.

Yeah, I try not to judge people in an emergency, but there were other options. I don’t think I would leave my school age kids alone in that situation. Either we’d all go or I would let him go and stay with them until someone could get there. I would just want him to be getting medical attention ASAP.

I had a dream that Jeffries became Speaker and I woke up excited…. And then Ope! Reality set in. Clearly compulsively monitoring CSPAN last night resulted in interesting dreams.

It's going to be a very long two years where absolutely nothing gets done. Well at least with the repubs in disarray they won't be able to unite to push thru a lot of nastiness. If the dems come up with really good things with broad American support and can get them to the floor (which is the part that will be virtuslly imposdible) maybe they will get a few reasonable rep to join them.

I can’t imagine the thought process of leaving a toddler and a tiny infant, even in an emergency situation. It was first reported that they were having dinner with friends at a nearby restaurant. She called for family to go to hotel after it happened but the hotel wouldn’t let the family in
