re: Why are primaried rinos obsessed with Hegseth?

This is why it made no sense to shut down the House to avoid voting on Massie's motion to impeach.

Lame duck Republicans who lose their elections might actually vote to impeach after the midterms. No chance that the Senate CONVICTS and REMOVES Hegseth, but Massie's motion has a much better chance of success AFTER midterms than when it was made.

It’s cute you think that’s why the house went on recess.

Well, that is not why they did it so why then need for it to make sense?

You're so gullible. Why do YOU think Johnson shut it down a day early? WHEN did Johnson make that decision...after Massie's filed his motion to impeach which had to be voted on within two legislative days.

Of course, I'm the idiot for believing you meant what you wrote. You just have to reflexively disagree because you know I'm right.

Answer this question: is it more likely that Hegseth would be impeached BEFORE or AFTER the midterms...which will render at least a few Republicans lame ducks?

Neither.

So, the chances are exactly the same? Your failure to answer questions honestly is a bad look.

Use your AI machine and now tell us how many impeachment attempts there were during the 119th Congress and how many were successful.

How many were voted upon AFTER the midterms? That's the whole point. The ones BEFORE the midterms all failed.

By postponing action until AFTER the midterms, some lame duck Republicans might vote for impeachment, whereas they wouldn't have voted for impeachment before they became lame ducks.

I need to know. Do you really not understand that?

Because he is an unqualified incompetent DEI hire by this administration, he is trying to indoctrinate Pentagon/military into his religious beliefs like military is a bunch of Christian templars fighting evil other religions instead of fighting for American values and Democracy.

Articles of impeachment and a vote to proceed doesn’t guarantee conviction. 2/3 of the senate isn’t going to vote to convict Hegseth. Massie’s articles are sham and shite flung on the wall especially since Congress couldn’t even pass a vote to stop the current conflict with Iran, multiple times, led by Massie.

I have said repeatedly there is ZERO chance of conviction and removal in the Senate. You really can't acknowledge that it's bad strategy to have the vote in the House AFTER the midterms?

Doesn’t matter you’ve said that’s why recess was called to stop it. Why stop something that isn’t going to happen? Even if it’s after midterms it’s not going to change the situation. They tried 3 times to limit trumps article 2 powers and failed every single time. There’s zero chance the senate would vote 2/3 for impeachment which means your theory is baloney.

I'm sorry DeBoar. I really didn't understand how ignorant you were until right now. I wouldn't have been so tough on you.

You literally don't know that only the House votes on IMPEACHMENT, which is simply the charge. It requires only a simple majority to pass. The Senate votes on conviction/removal, which requires a 2/3rds majority.

My bad. I thought you were being dishonest. I apologize.

Have you ever run paragraphs here through an analysis tool?

I highly suggest it.
