House Republicans filed a lawsuit against Pelosi to block the chamber’s new voting system, which was passed by Dems with no GOP support. They argue proxy voting is unconstitutional and claim Congress has an obligation to meet in person — despite risks

by Fenit Nirappil and Julie Zauzmer: “D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser is expected Wednesday to announce the gradual reopening of the capital, saying the city has been meeting key thresholds to contain new coronavirus infections. Hospitals have been running below their maximum capacity, testing is on the rise and the city is in the process of hiring enough contact tracers to identify and quarantine residents exposed to the virus.”during this pandemic.

But it just has -- it’s cost people’s lives, it’s costing people’s lives, and like I said we’re almost 100,000 dead today -- 100,000 people. Columbia study showing that we could have -- if he just started a week earlier would have saved thousands of lives. I mean, these are -- this is a tragedy.

Why? A vote is a vote. It doesn’t matter where you cast it from.

In event of death in the air, this Rep. wants Congress to vote in person?! What a crazy shit reasoning.

We’re not buying it PELOSI is all the good you got left. THIS SHITS BURNING DOWN LOOK AT IT AND YOU WANT MORE CHAOS?

Never will be able to fix stupid

Are they not essential? Heroes? 🤡s?

I did not vote for Congress members from another State to vote for Michigan's constituents concerns. MY Congress members are the only one's I authorized to do so, with MY vote!

And House Reps and Senators do it all the time in Washington when passing bills.

Grandstanding and not smart by the GOP. They seem to be collectively brain dead.

Should fix VA hospitals system, too. This system work too slow , hires too much low level doctors, can't find much problems.

Such ridiculousness

How about a suit against your leader!

They just want an excuse to be in DC away from their wives so they can hang out with their girlfriends/boyfriends

Translation: Anything a sensible and compassionate person wants -we are against!

A. The House can conduct their business by proxy just I do. B. Their was no FISA abuse C. Where the hell are your masks? D. Steve Saclise is a proxy-moron

ANYTHING for an advantage

Screw this Trump shit show.

Pandemic! Ring a bell yo any of you? Jfc some people. Stupid.

If piglosi and dems can't do their job, STOP THEIR PAY, just like everybody else.

Can you say, poor losers. Gop that is.

Trump for President 2020

All of a sudden republicans want to follow rules?

Why? When has Congress sued the REPUBLICANS for allowing Trump to hide documents and block witnesses during Trump’s impeachment? Americans deserved to know the truth!! Republicans didn’t get sued! Congress should have sued them, also!

Wow look, Republicans filing suit. Seen it before? Sorry, back to whatever you were doing.

Yeaaaaah NO!

Yea, that’s what you guys do, complain and sue!

Leave it to them to refuse to do any work because things arent like they were in 1953.

They’re desperate to keep cheating voters out of their vote!!!!

Simple to solve. Let all the republicans travel to DC and vote. The democrats can vote from their home districts.

🙄

Good luck loser. I thought Trump and Dana were being paid by Putin, isn’t that what you said Kevin?

We have the technology. Oh, so NOW they don’t want to use technology?

I believe the only reason Trump is trying to stop this is because he wants to cheat again but can't do it with mail-in ballots. Why else would he be so against it? Even if we go to the polls, and Biden wins, Trump will claim its rigged. He doesn't want to be out.

Impeached Resident Rump's re-election strategy is to kill everyone so no one can vote him out. We have a murderous Administration Negligent? Homicide Liberate America November 3

Ive had enough of the GOP bullshit. In a world-wide pandemic, the House of Representatives decided to vote in absentee, to ensure the safety of its member, family, fellow citizens. But the the GOP thinks they should be there, in person, endangering everyone. GOPCorruption

And look how manly, viril, strong men they look without masks😂😂😂😂 Freedom to die!!😂🦠😂🦠😂 These sissies are so insecure!! GOP DNC realDonaldTrump

The Electoral Colage is Unconstitusional idiot! We have had mail in ballots for years. Time for you to be replaced itiot orange45 puppet. 100796914_3120349161320079_8790713756058386432_n

Doesn't that happen in the Senate everyday? The consequences of elections.

Cool masks, asshats. It's like a contest of who can be more obtuse and their stupidity makes my teeth ache.

Don't believe a word out of their mouths. They're desperate & will say anything. 'proxy' voting?!!!!

Is there a clause in the Constitution for proxy voting or are we just winging it now?

Would war exclusion count, nuclear or biological threat? Are any of these R congressman or senators on the short list to be evacuated with president djt in the event of nuclear war...will they vote in obliterated capitol bldg?

98% of Republicans have never read the Constitution.

look at the DUMBEST mick on the face of the earth.

TrumpMeltdown RepublicansAreKillingUs VoteBlueToSaveAmerica

Ok if people have to vote in person and some one dies could there be a wrongful death lawsuit against them

I’ve no problem if these republicans get sick and die. 🤷‍♀️

What a joke....

The appropriate reply to McCarthy and the fascist, corrupt GOP is GFY.

Well, why not? They’ll have the president’s personal law firm, the Trump Department of Justice, headed by his personal, free lawyer, AG William Barr, behind them.

Republicans dumb stunt to distract from 100,000+ death due to Trump’s incompetence and their enabling

All GOP...

Are these the same GOP members who didn’t want testimony during the impeachment hearing? Strange.

Unfortunately the GOP Supreme Court is just a division of the GOP criminal enterprise VoteBlue and end the endless GOPCorruption

Freaking death cult

It's amazing that they have computers and wifi in the Capitol.

They had better get used to losing

They still pay their bills by driving to the electric company, the bank, the water company and counting out bills.

Aka—don’t look at the White House. I’ll pull a few tricks to keep you amused.

The snowflakes are triggered now. Wait till November when theyre thrown into the gutters where they belong

They can’t even follow CDC guidelines in person, and this video is proof. They don’t realize how they look?

Do these guys know how ridiculous they sound/look in the midst of a viral health crisis? Common sense, guys, common sense.

While the GOP senate approves every single judge, regardless of qualification. Quid pro quo? Not even close.

We the people are uptohere with Republicans trying to destroy us. Why are they allowed to be a 'side,' Politico, when all they stand for is corruption, lies and pain? Why do you give them microphones and let them do this to us? Serious question, journalists.

where were they when MoscowMitch was blocking election security bills from reaching the senate?

Republicans are liars and pedophiles

why?

VOTE Blue and remove these republicans in November!

didn't they all rip RepThomasMassie and threaten to throw him from their party for demanding this 2 months ago?

Very pro-life I see

Ghouls...all of them
