    I'm in a deep blue state. Pretty much every city, county, state, or federal election I have any impact on goes Dem whether I vote or not 

    I'm not sure why you're more inclined to villify the voters over politicians who currently hold enough power to do anything, like Biden's refusal to codify Roe v. Wade which isn't even effected by the filibuster. What's his excuse?

    Codify by an executive order you mean?

    Voting doesn't mean shit if democrats are gonna give republicans everything they want.

    You literally believe in a narrative based on right wing propaganda to disillusion you to the party. Ending the filibuster or whatever weird demands you guys have won’t mean shit if you just become complacent until republicans win a 51 majority and undo everything you did.

    you guys haven’t “voted enough” if dems don’t even have 60 majority. You’re bitching that they haven’t done anything with the power you’ve given them but you don’t give them power you bitch at them for not having enough power.

    I guess I'll go through each one.

    First, regarding the "failed insurrection". The Government is probably not charging them with trying to overthrow the government, but rather with conspiring to use force to prevent the execution of Federal law. This can be surmised since the individuals have not been charged with the crime of insurrection. Further, that NY Times piece accidentally speaks the quiet part out loud; "The group and its actions around the Capitol will be central to the narrative being pieced together by the House committee investigating the attack and Mr. Trump’s efforts to overturn the election results, two people familiar with the committee’s plans said on Monday." From this, it is easy to determine that the committee is not investigating facts, but rather attempting to find facts to fit a predetermined outcome. This is important as to the second and third points.

    Second, as far as Rep. Jordan being a material witness, there is no factual basis for that assertion yet available. The closest thing is a statement from Rep. Jordan, “I spoke with him that day, after? I think after. I don’t know if I spoke with him in the morning or not. I just don’t know…I don’t know when those conversations happened.”. So, until such evidence can be found that would prove Rep. Jordan spoke earlier or that he spoke prior to Jan. 6th with the intent to somehow plan, and no such evidence has been presented, he is no more a material witness that any other person who might have spoken with the President during the days between Nov. 3rd and Jan. 6th.

    As to Rep. Banks, he did not announce his intent to "muddy the waters". He rather did the exact opposite, and clearly stated his intent to investigate "... why was the Capitol unprepared and vulnerable to attack on January 6? If Democrats were serious about investigating political violence, this committee would be studying not only the January 6 riot at the Capitol, but also the hundreds of violent political riots last summer when many more innocent Americans and law-enforcement officers were attacked. And of course, the committee would not overlook the Good Friday murder of USCP Officer Billy Evans that was perpetrated by a far-left extremist." This isn't muddying the waters, this is announcing valid lines of investigation into the climate of political violence which led up to the mostly peaceful protest at the Capitol on Jan. 6th. (That's for "Gym Jordan". 😝)

    I'll agree that Rep. Jordan is probably wrong about an effort to subpoena him being unconstitutional.

    HANG THE INSURRECTIONISTS

    Is she a nurse or a tech? Just curious; in my experience, the techs had more interaction with the patients, especially when it came to communicating with the outside world. (Granted, I haven't been inpatient in about 20 years, so I'm sure that things have changed...)

    shes a nurse

    Tim Ryan challenged Nancy Pelosi for Speaker of the house in 2016. He didn’t win, but jussayin, he agrees with you.

    "If you're a quarterback and you keep throwing interceptions, you change quarterbacks," the 43-year-old Ryan, a former high school football player, said in a recent interview criticizing the record of Pelosi, 76, and arguing it's time for a younger generation to take the reins.

    i kinda read you thread in DF, i didnt know the nurse was here...

    strange.....

    She had to supervise my cell phone use and what apps I was going into. I wasn’t supposed to even open a browser or social media. She was like “You can go to the browser if you tell me what site you need. “ So I described it as a secret message board, she said no, and I asked if she’d go on and tell my friends I was ok but in the psych ward
