So true! As a soldier for 27 years I was never late for a formation. I always ensured that I had between 30 minutes or an hour of "cushion time" for the unexpected. And our day generally started much earlier than the representatives we sent to congress. If a soldier is late, they can get demoted, fined and extra duty. It is good to call them out, however, we need to publicize what the Rethuglicans are doing too.
Those whom are in a Democratic Leadership position, need to find political funding from donations and be making commercials EVERY TIME Republicans voted against the will of the people and airing/transmitting it throughout America with how representatives voted on issues. There are a huge amount of poison pills in the Big Bogus Deal that will be enacted in 2027. When the president vetos the fixes and the Senate and House attempt to get a 2/3rds vote (and fail) they need to publicize the name of all who vote against passing it. After all, some states actually have Recall provisions for politicians in their constitutions. And if constituents get upset enough they can and do enact those.
Congratulations to all the elected women - and to all whom were elected Democrats. Go Democrats! Do what we elected you for: start clawing back the monies he has wasted, hold him and his regime accountable and help the American people whom you work for - not the rich. Most importantly, fix our system of government so this never happens again. Money out of politics. Term limits for the Supreme Justices, and a code of ethics they must sign prior to getting the job. When they violate that code, out they go! These are just a few things that are needed.
Also, America needs a Department of Justice with appointees working there who are approved by 2/3 of Congress, not Trump-appointed personal lawyers and his campaign organizers.
The 11 Democrats who missed the vote were Reps. Melanie Stansbury (N.M.), Marilyn Strickland (Wash.), Julia Brownley (Calif.), Lou Correa (Calif.), Laura Gillen (N.Y.), Steven Horsford (Nev.), Jonathan Jackson (Ill.), Nancy Pelosi (Calif.), Brittany Pettersen (Colo.), Haley Stevens (Mich.) and Frederica Wilson (Fla.).
Somebody sticks their neck out to remove a major POS that has no business being anywhere close to all of world's safety and they couldn't make in to work cause there was something on tv more important to watch….
And, correct me if I am wrong, only 7 Dem votes needed to keep Massie's impeachment going.... reminds me of the 32% of registered Florida Democrat voters who failed to show up and vote despite weeks of Early Voting and given many options in how to vote, causing governor-elect David Jolly to lose by 10%
Maybe one of the following is your Representative, or you know someone living in their District.....contact the Representative ...ask them, "Why did you not support the Hegseth impeachment?!?
REMINDER: THESE REPRESENTATIVES WORK FOR THE PEOPLE.

most of us would lose our jobs if we didn’t show up to work on time

Great job missing Dems…
Somebody sticks their neck out to remove a major POS that has no business being anywhere close to all of world's safety and they couldn't make in to work cause there was something on tv more important to watch….
Let the mush begin…..jez
I hope the women in Congress take their job more seriously than the men have.
