Agreed, that is what I meant. This is the right move by Jeffries at the right time because there is an opening to drum up the support needed we've never had before. AND they need time to organize and solidify that commitment before a vote.

If there was ever a time they could wrangle some Republican defectors, wouldn't this be it? You have to try something when you have the opportunity.

Specifically, Chuck Schumer - all fingers need to be pointing at him. Thank you for speaking out!

Yes, and it's a dereliction of duties to continually let this happen and why I would prefer to hold my representative to account for not doing her job rather than accept it as reality.

It is not to count votes, it is to corral votes. You think people just act 100% independently from their party and don't take any direction? Sure, she's not literally holding a gun to people's head to force them, but a whip uses leverage to coax a unified vote from the caucus.

That is literally her job...

But she, the minority whip, is not whipping the votes. Her no vote is only symbolic.

Agreed, it seems "Democrat leadership soft launches their cover story for their plans to expand funding for ICE" should be the headline, but what do I know?

@whipkclark.bsky.social we're not stupid, the 'no' vote only matters if you whip the vote.

But Democratic opposition won't likely be enough to block funding for DHS and ICE. Democratic leaders have no plans to whip against the legislation, the two sources said, who spoke on condition of anonymity to share private discussions. That will free up some moderate Democrats who are facing tough re-election bids to join with Republicans and support it.

NBC is reporting they are not planning on whipping this vote 👎👎👎👎

Is this a job for @bencollins.bsky.social ?

It hasn't been up for a vote yet, but I believe this is it. docs.house.gov/billsthiswee...

Invoking the 25th amendment is not impeachment?

MORMONS: look its very clear that God and his established authority on the earth, do not have the power to actually influence sporting events. Thats why BYU doesn't win anything important. That would be way too hard

POPE (roller skating backwards while eating a hot dog) not that hard

Right?? This vote had me searching for primary challengers and there is one (actually 2)! I just started a monthly donation and volunteered.

It's clear what lane you're in.

Thank you, more of this!

He said not aggressive.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

This scene lives rent free in my head as well, I'm glad I'm not the only one!

There is a silliness to it, but with a solid dose of earnestness. A "hi friend" followed by a hug is a wonderful greeting, and "hey friend, can you pass me a beer" also works. "Fam" is basically the same. There's a word for you out there, I believe!

Ahhh yes a statement ending in ", friend" is very different. This is more like a greeting entering a room or starting a group chat - "Hey friends, long time no see!"

It never occurred to me, but I use "friends" this way.

That's so much fun, I've been meaning to try making stamps for printing fabrics and that sounds like a perfect way to start. Yours all look great!

Did you make your own stamps for some of these, too?

This is absolutely in my future
