Description
Honestly, Scott Jennings said what a lot of us were thinking. Hakeem Jeffries wants to be Speaker of the House in January, and he couldn't get his own members to show up for the one vote he said he was a "hard yes" on.
On Sunday, Jeffries told ABC's This Week, "I'm a hard yes on the Hegseth resolution," and predicted "incredibly strong support." On Tuesday night, the House voted 211 to 204 to send Thomas Massie's impeachment articles to committee, which kills them for this Congress. 11 Democrats didn't vote. 204 plus 11 is 215.
Even Democrats are fed up. Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove said, "There is no reason why we should have lost this vote because of attendance issues." Meanwhile 210 Republicans held together, and the only Republican on Massie's side was Massie, who already lost his May primary to Trump-backed Ed Gallrein, 54.88 percent to 45.12 percent.
