I'll update when the vote vote because we know the outcome.

If for some reason she's not removed, you can blame me for jinxing it!

5. HELL. YES.

[uponit7771]

6. Good, she's an overly opportunistic asshole

[KS Toronado]

34. she's an Qverly Qpportunistic Qsshole

Remember to use Qs when referring to reQugs, Nancy said "If the Q fits"

[onecaliberal]

7. That's the way we do it.

[dchill]

8. I just REALLY wish the GQP had done it.

[onecaliberal]

13. The QOP loves her.

[Butterflylady]

74. QOP......

First time seen the lettering like that but it's fabulous.

[onecaliberal]

84. Can't put a G in front of the Q because there is nothing grand

About them.

[KS Toronado]

88. That's a gQQd post

Noticed you know your Ps & Qs, please encourage all Democrats to refer to reQugs with the Q they deserve. They own
Qanonsense, let's ensure it's the face of their party. As Nancy Pelosi said "If the Q fits wear it"

[calimary]

50. Okay, now I have a dilemma.

Which do I like more?

The QOP or the GQP?

Damn! Each of ‘em is terrific! I love ‘em both!

[KS Toronado]

89. That's a gQQd post

[doc03]

11. Ah

[ananda]

14. Hurray!

The Dems are taking no prisoners this time around.

Stay strong Dems!

[StarfishSaver]

15. Not true - yet. Meidas Touch jumped the gun

They haven't voted yet. They voted to debate and are now voting on a Republican motion to adjourn, but that will fail.

[blogslut]

28. I'm with you

I think they still have to actually vote to remove her from committees. I think they voted to proceed and are now voting on a motion to adjourn. I could be wrong.

[George II]

38. Correct. The vote to kick her off the committees will happen after this motion to adjourn fails.

[George II]

52. They want to avoid or delay having to go on record. I wonder who the two Democrats so far....

....who have voted to adjourn.

[MontanaMama]

56. Thanks SfS.

I was actually speed scrolling through this thread looking to see if you had checked in. I'm at work so couldn't spend a bunch of time reading.

[Cha]

16. Rt YAY.. Big fucking Gaslighting Lying

Ugly Treasonous Mouths Have Consequences!

[Auggie]

24. "Ugly Treasonous Mouths Have Consequences!" -- +1

[mr_lebowski]

17. Boy, the meltdown over in Wingnut Wonderland is gonna be EPIC!

[livetohike]

18. It won't stop her from being an ass, but a good start. n/t

[Laura PourMeADrink]

83. Actually could make her a worse ass.

[livetohike]

86. You're right. I don't know what other options there are. Censure

and then a vote on expulsion? You know she can’t keep quiet.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

90. ??? It's still gonna be a one sided game huh. Probably

view all matters from here on through the "right thing to do" lens and move forward afap. Act like they aren't there?

Censure might take longer?
Why the hell does it take an entire day to do something?

[George II]

20. Not yet. That was the vote to proceed. And now a childish move by republican, a motion to adjourn...

...before the final vote. So they have to waste yet another hour.

The motion to adjourn will fail and then they'll go to the expulsion vote.

[Cha]

44. Thanks.. I saw this down thread, too..

Looks like Meidas Touch jumped the gun.

It happens.

[George II]

47. I did the same thing couple of days ago. The way these votes are labeled can be confusing.

[Cha]

51. Their tweet is now Deleted so they

know their mistake.

Hope it turns out to be True!!

[NRaleighLiberal]

21. spectacular news. made my day!

being a shit stirring dangerous bat shit crazy lying ignorant asshole must have consequences

[exboyfil]

22. Really tired of cleaning up the GOP manure

that all it does is benefit them when they fund raise against the evil Democrats.

Have to do it to govern, but it sure gets tiring pushing the stone again and again up the hill.

[KS Toronado]

92. Did you mean GQP?

Know your Ps & Qs, please encourage all Democrats to refer to reQugs with the Q they deserve. They own
Qanonsense, let's ensure it's the face of their party. As Nancy Pelosi said "If the Q fits wear it"

[Sophiegirl]

23. Isn't the House just about to begin the debate

MeidasTouch got ahead of it’s skis.

[flibbitygiblets]

25. Buh-buye bleach-blond bozo barbie

[Dem4Life1102]

26. They haven't yet

That was just a procedural vote.

[servermsh]

27. I don't think this is correct. I don't think the vote has been taken yet. n/t

[spooky3]

45. The tweet has been deleted, so you may be right. nt

[malaise]

29. Bye bye crazy Marge

You will not threaten the Speaker's life and talk about lynching Barack Obama and sit on committees. You will not say school shootings didn't happen and remain on Committees.

[sakabatou]

30. Good

[Wawannabe]

31. Kickety kick kick

Her ASS!

[ooky]

32. Hope those who voted her in enjoy

having no representation on committees.

K&R

[Norbert]

35. Bye Bye

[nitpicker]

36. ((There appears to be a slight delay))

https://thehill.com/homenews/house/537325-live-coverage-house-debates-removing-greene-from-committees


(snip)
3:35 p.m.

The House passed a procedural rule along party lines to launch a formal debate on the resolution to remove Greene from the Education and Budget committees.

Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) subsequently forced a vote on a motion to adjourn, which will delay passage of the resolution until later than originally expected Thursday afternoon.

The motion to adjourn is expected to fail. Once that vote is done, lawmakers will have an hour of debate on the Greene resolution before voting on it.
(snip)

[Cha]

39. TY.. looks like MeidasTouch jumped

the gun. I hope it turns out to be true.

[nitpicker]

69. Maybe about 1730 or 1800?

CSPAN just said it would take about 25 more minutes for the adjournment vote, so with an hour of debate then voting on the resolution should begin.

[nitpicker]

100. Actually starting voting at about 1800

So far, along straight party lines.

[bearsfootball516]

41. That was a procedural vote.

The actual vote doesn't happen for a few hours. OP is inaccurate.

[scipan]

43. Not yet

There are several people in the thread saying that was a vote on the rules for debate. Then the Rs wanted a vote to adjourn.

[barbtries]

46. the link doesn't work

i googled and couldn't find that it's happened already.

[LudwigPastorius]

48. Pistol Packin' Qaren needs to be sent packing.

Next, Pelosi should have her frisked every time she tries to enter the House chamber.

[KS Toronado]

93. Keep up the gQQd work.

Noticed you know your Ps & Qs, please encourage all Democrats to refer to reQugs with the Q they deserve. They own
Qanonsense, let's ensure it's the face of their party. As Nancy Pelosi said "If the Q fits wear it"

[Tommymac]

49. This is premature - recommend editing OP - NOT True (yet)

MT has pulled the tweet - case of premature celebration.

[Nevilledog]

57. Charles Pierce just posted also. Really surprised Meidas Touch jumped the gun.

Although, it's not like it was unexpected.....lol. Like saying "Water is wet"

[Tommymac]

59. I know. Honest error. But We on DU need to stay accurate as possible.

As much as I want to see this result, we will have to wait a few more hours.

I'm just as guilty sometimes.

Thanks for all you do here Nevilledog!

[Cha]

54. MeidasTouch is now Deleted but

Pierce's is UP to Date?

TY!

[iluvtennis]

55. Can't find any news that the vote has happened. On CSPAN, there is motion to adjourn the House

proceedings for day - right before the vote to remove mjt from the committees.

All rethugs voting yes to adjourn for the day.

Another attempt to obstruct. So tired of this shit.

[spooky3]

58. He's wrong, per MSNBC; Jansing says procedural votes are ongoing; the

vote on removal will take place around 5 PM.

[spanone]

60. Appears the vote hasn't happened yet....

[blogslut]

61. Sorry. It hasn't happened yet. It will happen but not yet

Both tweets have been deleted

Link to tweet

[DeSmet]

79. ?

Do we have a second greatest page?

[calimary]

62. Backbone! Consequences!

GOOD GOOD GOOD!

I saw her public statement earlier. I saw the coverage. Nobody seems to have made the point that, for all her “I don’t believe those things anymore” stuff today, it was PRECISELY her loud public endorsement of conspiracy crap that earned her national attention and made her famous and hot her into Congress, in the first place. As of only last November, don’t forget.

[kas125]

63. No they haven't. I'm watching it on c-span and

They haven't even voted yet. They're still voting on some republican idiot's motion to adjourn.

[colorado_ufo]

64. Only thing to make me happier is expulsion!

Lame-ass non-apology I-am-a-victim-like-you excuses! All the while, she thinks the world is easy to manipulate.

[malaise]

65. Is the vote complete? n/t

[fleur-de-lisa]

67. No, the actual vote has not started yet.

There was an earlier procedural vote. That must be what the OP is about.

[spanone]

68. The vote has NOT happened yet.

[Andy823]

72. Yep, it's like nobody

even bothers to read the all post that say that!

[True Blue American]

91. Gym Jordan now shouting.

Hit the mute button!

[KS Toronado]

94. Did you mean Qym Jordan?

[True Blue American]

117. No Gym

As in the man now suing him for ignoring sexual abuse at OS for 7 years!

[Owl]

66. This voting sure goes slowly.

[bottomofthehill]

70. Not so fast, that was the vote in the rule for debate

The resolution comes up shortly and will be voted on at about 530pm.

[mountain grammy]

71. Tweets are unavailable..

let's keep it real, folks..

[Elwood P Dowd]

73. Same here. Tweets opened fine last night, but today this one was no go. (nm)

[denbot]

75. Elections have consequences.

And they are just starting to rollout.

[nolabear]

80. They're trying to stall by moving to adjourn.

I love being in the majority. 😍

[sfstaxprep]

81. 161 Recs For Something That Hasn't Even Happened Yet

The only vote that took place was regarding the Debate Rules.

NOTHING is official yet, and this Thread is Wrong.

[struggle4progress]

82. The vote shows the GOP is Gang Greene

[BComplex]

119. That should catch on! Very clever, Struggle4progress!

The QOP definitely IS Gang Green!

[h2ebits]

85. Neither of the tweet links work for me.

It says the page cannot be found.

[ShazzieB]

97. Looks like they were deleted.

I had the same problem and posted about it. From scrolling through these replies, I have gathered that the tweets aren't there anymore and deleted my previous post!

[h2ebits]

98. Thanks for letting me know

[LaMouffette]

87. Great news! Great thread! And P.S. Hey, QOP! Quizno's wants their letter back!

[KS Toronado]

95. Keep up the gQQd work.....

Noticed you know your Ps & Qs, please encourage all Democrats to refer to reQugs with the Q they deserve. They own
Qanonsense, let's ensure it's the face of their party. As Nancy Pelosi said "If the Q fits wear it"

[LaMouffette]

99. Thanks! Another lesson from the Trump playbook: Destroy your enemy with ridicule.

We should especially always call it "Qanonsense."

I'd like to start a conspiracy theory too: "Did you know that QAnon originally began as a support group for people who cannot figure out that when they feel resistance, they should stop pushing the Q-tip any further into their ear? Yes! Seriously! I read it on Facebook from a bunch of different sources, so it must be true!"

[nitpicker]

102. One Repug actually broke ranks so far

I wonder if any Repugs will abstain from voting.

[Mr.Bill]

103. I hope it's Liz Cheney.

Wouldn't that be great?

[ecstatic]

104. I wanted to see her expelled

along with the other seditionists, but I guess this is a good start.

[nitpicker]

106. 218!!!

[ZZenith]

107. Celebration is back on!!!

Now to run her out of town on a rail.

[Nevilledog]

108. I just kinda popped the cork at 11:30 instead of waiting for midnight!

I expect her to go full asshole, so that should help with expelling her.

[ZZenith]

109. You go on with your bad self, Nevilledog.

Pop those corks anytime you feel like it!

We know your good intention.

[nitpicker]

110. Final box score per CSPAN

Democrats: 219/000/2 not voting
Repugs: 11/199/1 not voting

[nitpicker]

111. I wonder how much overlap there is amongst the 11 Repugs

And the 10 who voted to impeach Thump.

[Nevilledog]

112. Not sure. But saw this

Link to tweet

Tweet text:
Yashar Ali 🐘
@yashar
Parkland....

Alex Daugherty
@alextdaugherty
News: All three South Florida Republicans @MarioDB, @RepCarlos and @RepMariaSalazar break with the GOP and vote YES to boot @mtgreenee from her committees.

This was a surprise. Story TK
4:59 PM · Feb 4, 2021

Guess the FL reps didn't like her calling Parkland a false flag operation.

[crickets]

114. Parkland. I wondered about those FL votes. Good for them. nt

[Susan Calvin]

113. Is there any way

To find an online list of who voted which way at this point?

[BobTheSubgenius]

115. Do NOT invite that upon yourself, Brian Tyler Cohen.

If something goes wrong with this motion, I'd miss your voice, so to speak.

[RANDYWILDMAN]

116. So now she can just Tweet and collect taypayer salary...

Sounds a lot like an orange thing we just got rid of.

Maybe they can add her to the night shift clean crew, so she can earn her keep.

[Meowmee]

118. She should have been expelled

and charged with incitement of insurrection as well as assaulting a congressperson as well as more I am sure.
