And that, dear visitors, is the Democratic Party’s method to “muh Politics” summed up in two precise phrases. If you don’t succeed, render up laws or regulations entirely and consider them legitimate and valid because, after all, that’s how things should be.

As you know by now, Rep. Mike Johnson (R-La. ) was re-elected Speaker of the House now, more or less without a hitch. Many people on the traditional side of the aisle are no high-fiving the time and popping champagne. Nobody on the remaining is overjoyed by the outcomes, according to Del. Stacey Plaskett (D-V. I. ).  ,
It was a little bit of a competition between Johnson and Hakeem Jefferies, and Plaskett may have realized that members from U.S. lands had give Jefferies the upper hand in the end. There is, of course, one glaring mistake in Plaskett’s so-called reasoning. Lands ‘ delegations are not able to cast ballots.  ,
This behavior was not made up in any way by Mecha Maga Monster Republicans in order to prepare for tomorrow’s ballot. And since Plaskett is a member of a U.S. place, she may be familiar with it. And she definitely is familiar with that law, she simply doesn’t care.
Plaskett used the ballot to provide her own fantasy world and summon the” My perception, my rules” provision, which Democrats are the only ones to use when things don’t go their way.  ,

Stacey Plaskett ( D), a Democrat from the United States, loses her mind on the House Floor after she and other non-voting delegates are barred from casting ballots for the House Speaker because they represent territories, not states.

You will note the hoots, catcalls, and” spontaneous” applause from her fellow Democrats, one of which shouted” Wrong”! when the laws were clarified for Plaskett. Ah! Donkey kabuki! It always gets older! Basically, liberal histrionics, hissy fits, fits, and set-tos have been on the table way past all their sell-by times, but get ready for more conniptions over the ensuing four times.  ,
Also of note: toward the end of her written rant, she attempts to make a more bald-faced call for independence, which is another one of the Democrat’s greatest visits:
Bless you, Mister Speaker. This system and this country have a problem with colonies and lands! What was meant to be transitory has now become a reality. We had address this issue in a way that these four million people…

Then her actually was cut.
Aye, there’s the wash. It’s a basic formula: create the District of Columbia, Guam, American-Samoa, Northern Mariana, the Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico state. In those newly established state, Democrats did cast ballots to prevent the nightmare scenario of a traditional majority and a Democratic presidency from ever being realized. We are aware of what may eventually come down the drain. And it will be bundled, of course, with efforts at a hand-picked and packed Supreme Court.
