1. I love it! Get ALL House Republicans on the record!

[TruckFump]

3. Exaclty.

Let the Repukes broadcast to the world that they are the party of Qanon!

[Ohio Joe]

2. How does this vote work?

A simple majority?

[drray23]

4. If thats the case why did not republicans strip all democrats of all assigments

when they had the majority. Its a little worrisome. I can see them doing just that out of spite if they ever get back the majority

[triron]

6. Hell they would have done it already had they had any excuse.

[Ohio Joe]

7. I don't know...

I don't recall this ever happening before... A given party always had the sense of shame to not let thing go this far and took care of their own miscreants. I hope it's a simply majority and she is gone dragging the repugs even lower then they are now.

12. Marjorie and QAnon might actually be good for Democratic fund raising and votes.

Democrats need to tie Trumpism, QAnon, and the lunatic fringe to the new Republican Party, where conspiracy theories reign and reality takes a back seat. Having a nut like Greene as a public face for the party can only be good for us.

8. A bit different with MTG

I haven't seen polls to this effect, but I would think most Americans think Marge is a lunatic and would support her being stripped of committee assignments.

13. Not sure if you're saying the Democrats shouldn't do it...

...but put me in the no column. Lord knows I can’t stand this woman and everything she represents, but I think it sets bad precedence. Let their own caucus deal with her. If it’s just a slap on the wrist, and she keeps her committee assignments so be it. That’ll give her plenty of rope to hang herself.

I just don’t think it’s our place.

5. Good. Don't wait on Qevin.

[Harker]

9. The Qreep must go.

Putting her on the Education Committee was an especially gross insult.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

18. Greene on the Education Committee is especially offensive.

[Harker]

19. Malicious.

No way it was a thoughtless moment.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

24. I wish I could argue otherwise, but you're probably right.

[MyNameGoesHere]

10. Magat Traitor Greene needs to go.

First step hopefully.

[FakeNoose]

11. That will get the "Outrage Machine" going

Faux Noise just loves this stuff.

[Hekate]

14. Don't let Repubs keep claiming it was for statements from 3 years ago. She is utterly toxic NOW...

...in her behavior to her colleagues.

[Kablooie]

15. She probably won't mind.

It means she she can spend her full time using her public pulpit to spew Qanon crap while keeping her $174,000 salary.

[NurseJackie]

16. Does it take a simple majority? 3/5ths? 2/3rds?

Do we expect this to work? Or is this just a way to tar others by having them proclaim their support for her?

[Harker]

25. Oop. Simple majority on the resolution. n/t

[NurseJackie]

26. I think that's probably the best we can hope for at this point.

[Harker]

28. It'll do for starters.

Given her evident ignorance and pugnacity, I think she'll dig a deeper whole pretty quickly.

[NurseJackie]

29. She's going to do a lot of damage to the GOP... that's the silver lining to all this.

[BobTheSubgenius]

17. I'm very ambivalent about this.

As badly as I want to see her dragged out, kicking and screaming - which is admittedly not far from her usual demeanour - and I do...I'd way prefer that the GOP do it.

She's their mess, and there is no way to forecast the blowback.

[Harker]

22. She's everybody's mess.

Either way, the sooner the better.

[Marius25]

20. Republicans have announced they're going to retaliate

and go against Ilhan Omar, and they plan on removing Dems from committees if they get in power again.

[Harker]

23. So, their game plan is to just keep on pressing the envelope.

There's a big surprise.

[lpbk2713]

27. Give her a boot in the ass.

Maybe she'll take the hint.
