Um, the House Chair just postponed the vote on the Meadows contempt citation...

[brooklynite]

...and they switched to debate on an Islamophobia resolution.

[revmclaren]

1. Perhaps word from Meadow's attorney about cooperation....?

I'm sure they have their reasons that keyboard warriors are not privy to.

[grumpyduck]

6. Keyboard warriors

Love that phrase. Can I steal it?

[MarineCombatEngineer]

9. My favorite is

Keyboard Kommandos.

[maxrandb]

11. I am partial to "The 101ST Chairborne" myself

[The Magistrate]

2. Let's Hope The Worm Has Turned, Sir

Hard to think of another reason but surrender for it, unless the proceeding on the resolution is needed be sure a few votes are secure for the citation.

It's a problem with narrow majorities that just about any clique of fools can set themselves up as vest-pocket kingmakers....

[kentuck]

3. That speech by Hoyer was historic, Sir.

He and Liz Cheney had Jordan and Banks resigned to babbling...

[empedocles]

5. 'It's a problem with narrow majorities that just about any clique of fools can set themselves up as

est-pocket kingmakers . . '

[Good one].

[iemanja]

4. which you seem to object to

Tell me, is it repudiating Islamophobia that you object to, or is it just in Omar's case?

[brooklynite]

8. How do I seem to object?

Do YOU object to holding a vote on the Meadows contempt citation?

[iemanja]

12. "Uh....."

You had a reason for posting the thread. What was it then? And why include "Uh," as though you found it disturbing?

[brooklynite]

13. The reason I posted it with an "uh" was because.....

...the impending vote on a contempt citation for the former Presidential Chief of Staff regarding a nationally significant insurrection was abruptly postponed. And I'd like to know why.

[iemanja]

14. Hopefully it will come up

right after the Islamophobia vote. I'd hate to think there weren't enough votes to pass the contempt resolution.

[bottomofthehill]

16. Stacking votes, not unusual and no problem.

The Speaker would not bring it up with out the votes.

[malaise]

17. You are correct n/t

Why!

[gab13by13]

7. 4 possibilities;

1. Meadows wants to cooperate.
2. Meadows is pretending to cooperate.
3. Speaker Pelosi doesn't have the votes.
4. None of the above.

[Generic Brad]

10. I suspect Pelosi doesn't have the votes

Once the Islamophobia is dealt with, then she probably will have the votes. That is also an important issue that was inexplicably placed on the back burner. It's time.

[bottomofthehill]

15. The Speaker has the votes, she is just stacking them.

Instead of holding a bunch of 15 minute votes, they are stacking the votes, at about 9:30ish there will be a series of votes, one 15 and a few 5 minute votes. It will knock an 1.5 hours off the day, get them to the debt limit bill and get out of DC tomorrow.
