He lied about what he had planned, and what the REPUKES were doing.
Tim Moore.

(10,050 posts)What kind of low-life does stuff like that? To wait until the Dems were at a 9/11 ceremony to sneak in a budget meeting to override the governor's veto when they promised they wouldn't take any votes while the Dems were absent. They really are REPUKES!

The one per cent want power, endlessly, universally, there is never too much or enough. Forty year culmination of hiding it, now Conservatives chasing the elites bidding, has now come to fruition. Coal miners know it. Farmers now know it. Soldiers know it: but there are many who may never know it, and are immune to the reality, which could take us all down.

(82,849 posts)I wonder how many Republican office-holders are going to be asked their opinion of Mr. Moore's stunt? I'll put the over/under at 1 and take the under.

And no, I do not want that, but the fix is in and the plans are in place and I am not indulging in a paranoid fantasy or being sensational. The GOP are doing the cornered rat number and going for the throat this time. They are on the brink of irrelevance, by their own doing, and are demographically being outnumbered and so, gee, what would you expect but going all out to grab the system by the throat and wring it's neck?
We are dealing with a desperation that knows no bounds here and it is significant for 2020.
Robert Reich is on it and here how it goes:

(3,151 posts)Was the meeting properly noticed?
Was the agenda published in all the correct places and with the required waiting period?
Was there a quorum?
Were the votes recorded in meticulously correct detail?
Is the asshole on record saying he wont hold a vote?
Bury them in minutiae and get it voided.
