Not at all- but this is a "business as usual" move when our reality is anything but that. Our congressmen and women need to start doing things that put themselves in line with the dire situation at hand- staging protests, be willing to get arrested to draw attention to issues like this, etc.
You want democrats to get arrested and give a majority GOP the chance to kick out and replace possibly with more GOP? Solid approach. Really well thought out. Would you like them to pull triggers for you, too? Do you have a clue how the gov works in real life or just what the headlines tell you.
why would a democratic legislator being arrested allow the gop to replace them? congressmen aren't removed from office if they get arrested. Oh, sorry- I don't know how the government works in real life- please educate me on these imaginary rules you just came up with.
Are you fucking serious? I didn't say they would be removed because of being arrested. I said it would give the GOP majority the chance to remove them. Yes, they can do that. Procedural votes to mute, remove, strip of power and position, remove from committee all abilities of a majority.

How about threaten?
Get angry like Rep. Larson. Show some emotion.
Are these people serious? Or are they just trying to convince us they're doing something?
