Someone else has the whip. This is nothing new. Maybe it's a populist, but it worked.

Apparently a majority of her district somehow got through the multiple layers of filter to communicate with their Rep, and she was able to speak with 5-figures of people in 2 hours.



You know it's 2024 and we have multiple ways of reaching our representatives, right?

I think they just don't like it and will try to minimize this aspect of "populism" and pretend like anyone who points it out is "upset"
I'm just left wondering if the Cult45 folks will claim her again. They got mad I posted Trump's endorsement posts for her this morning.

I mean, I'm never going to be against people pushing back on bullshite like this. I could give two shits about anyone's motives.

I'm not sure what other means there is to shift perception on this stuff. Seems more hopeful than e-high-fiving message board posters over Owning MAGA.

*for now

You're going to get a shitty CR eventually. Then we'll see another flip flop from APL I imagine.

This is like the DEMs ousting McCarthy with Gaetz. We all told y'all it was not going to do shite, and it got worse, somehow.

Neither you nor I do. We have ways of reaching their office, but I already referenced that.

You don't know how making a completely opposite position in 2 hours is spineless?

In what way can this paradigm not involve hypocrisy?


She can do whatever she wants. This woman is going places and in style, that is, if she wants.

I'm laughing at more spineless MAGA-tards with no principles.



This is completely backwards.

Spineless would be taking a stand on CRs and Omnibus budgeting but deciding to support the CR because of specific items positive for her constituents.

It was reasonable to criticize her for her initial stance. In fact, many here did.

But, you are criticizing her for eventually coming around to her original principled stance.

You have basic logic issues.

I blame Fox and Friends and Hannity's GF. They had Speaker Mikey on and he said it HAS TO PASS because the hurricane victims and poor farmers.

Ainsley Sensei was saying, 'oh yes the poor farmers and hurricane victims.' Doocy Senior said, 'oh we agree Speaker Mike thanks so much for the zoom call.'

Usually this would have worked. All were repeating the poor farmers and hurricane victims stories.

Then Vivek and Elon read it.

No. It's funny that Mr. "12 appropriations bills" is changing his stance.

She is not

The TDS crew are just piling on for simply changing a vote

Truth is that the disaster relief should ve been there months ago before 1 red cent was sent across the world to line the pockets of crooked arse politicians

I am sure she had noble reasons for wanting her constituents to receive the relief they needed but our government is so dirty that they knew that in advance and was using this a political blackmail

Sensei changed his stance on his radio show today. That's what I would call "spineless".
