No you missed the point. People are suggesting the Dems should do something to get the new member sworn in without the Speaker. Swearing her in doesn’t bring the house back so it doesn’t force a vote on the Trumpstein Files. They are MUCH better of badgering the Speaker to get her sworn in.

All caps one word = emphasis
All caps multiple words = shouting

Which is the real point. It’s all a performance to make Johnson look bad, so why would the Dems want to get her sworn in themselves.

There is no “law”, the Constitution only requires the oath. Congress makes the “rules” and Dems are choosing to play by the rules. They could choose to only follow the law and swear her in themselves. Not following rules doesn’t make it any less legal;)

Not needed, current law allows any judge or notary to swear in new members. It’s only tradition that it’s done by the speaker. Dems know this but they also know it makes Johnson look bad because of the Epstein files 😉

Yes, or any Notary. Dems know this but most people don’t so they are milking it to make Johnson look bad 👍

That is ALREADY the law. Current law states that any officiant can swear in new members. So they can literally go to any bank right now and have a Notary swear her in.

🤫 don’t tell repuglicans, let them think it’s Johnson avoiding the Epstein Files 😉

So compromising with the repuglicans made the system worse but somehow it’s the Dems fault 🧐

I assume she has an “in case of my death send to media” safety deposit box (or at least rumpT thinks she does).

Yes, which is why every other word out of their mouths is Antifa or Insurrection. They control a lot of what the military sees/hears. The military is being brainwashed against us.

Just an FYI: when Repuglicans say they want to “drain the swamp” they are talking about mass firing federal employees.

I only recently figured out they aren’t referring to crooked politicians.

They say the Dept of Ed, EPA, DOH…are woke evil institutions stealing profits from white men. Who knew🤷‍♀️

There’s no point, swearing her in doesn’t bring them back to session. The longer she’s not sworn in the worse it makes Johnson look so Dems should just keep milking it.
