"It's frustrating," said Rep. Fred Upton, a veteran Michigan Republican. "I don't see that this is resonating at home, the motions to adjourn. I mean it's just a pain. It's a pain in the ass."

"It's just pissing everyone off," said one senior House Republican member, asking for anonymity to discuss the matter candidly.

"Tactics without reason, they go nowhere," said Rep. Buddy Carter, a Georgia Republican. "So you've got to have a game plan. You just have to ask about the game plan there."
Added Texas Rep. Dan Crenshaw: "I'm not voting for any more motions to adjourn. These things are the games that both sides play. I'm not a fan of it from either side."

If you think the conservative members of your own party as impediments to what your side of the party wishes to achieve, as people who need to be maneuvered around, as people who you cannot work with, as a "PITA", then perhaps you should rethink just why the f**k you are in Washington, maybe even go the f**k home and let someone else do the job you seem unwilling to do.

"Look, we want fairness," Rep. Jody Hice, a Georgia Republican, said Tuesday. "Nancy Pelosi has shut down the House. Republicans are really not having any seat at the table. We're not knowing what's in bills until the last minute when they release the language of the bills. We're not basically having amendments allowed. We got the place fenced up and caged in. Now we have magnetometers coming through. It's time to make some changes, and until those changes start taking place we'll continue doing what we're doing."

"The whole point of protesting is to make ppl uncomfortable.
To folks who complain protest demands make others uncomfortable... that’s the point."
--AOC

So suck it, Democrats and RINOs.

As I said to David, maybe Upton should shove a 100W bulb up his ass.

Why? Here:
