Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description.

What else can be said that would actually to add to the conversation after this? I can think of nothing. Good day sir.
I think it's important to point out that this vote only failed because they basically pulled a guy out of a hospital bed to vote no
The failure came about because of the surprise appearance in the chamber of Rep. Al Green (D-Texas), who showed up unexpectedly — having recently had surgery and wearing hospital scrubs and no socks, according to NBC — to vote against the bill.
So not exactly a stunning rebuke of the wackos.
Somewhat ironically Republicans will likely be pulling a different guy out of a hospital bed (Steve Scalise, getting chemo) to counter this one and vote on it again.
And they're hoping another vote will pass once another rep gets out of his hospital bed. There seems to be a common theme here.

Yet you still commented.
He said good day.
You really did need to bookmark that link.
I know, right?
Republicans had accused Mayorkas of “willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law,” claiming he violated immigration laws by failing to detain a sufficient number of migrants.
They were sad that he did not lock up enough brown people.
was there some sort of quota in the law?
edit: /s
Nope. Apprehensions are also at their highest so it is quite possible that CBP is getting a higher percentage that are coming over the border.
sorry, i was being sarcastic. i know that nothing will please these goalpost-movers.
I'm MUCH happier my tax dollars was used for THAT instead of FEEDING STARVING AMERICAN CHILDREN!
Fucking clown car.
You love to see it.
What has the House of Taxpayer Leeches accomplished this term?
Well they passed the border bill, securing our borders and providing much needed support for Ukraine all while forcing the Dems to give up nearly everything they stand for.... Oh wait, that deal is basically dead now because it would help Biden.
What a load of fucking morons.
We fucked up this one and we’ll fuck up again, promises MTG.
Gang of Pitiful.
Republicans also accused him of “breach of public trust.”
