New House vote-by-proxy measure sets off screaming alarms as Pelosi gobbles power
|
[BIZPACREVIEW] House Speaker Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi
Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments...
essentially told members of Congress they don’t need to show up for work anymore and she will take care of voting for them.
The Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, Democrat led members of the House to pass legislation on Friday that allows politicians to stay home and vote by proxy during the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
 ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
pandemic. The unprecedented bill coincided with the approval of a massive $3 trillion coronavirus stimulus package that has objecting Republicans reeling.
Rep. Steve Scalise condemned the "power grab" as "unconstitutional" during a panel discussion on Fox News, warning House members who voted in favor of proxy voting that they will have to face their constituents and explain why they "just voted to give your voting card to Nancy Pelosi."
"This is going to be a tough vote for them to explain," the House Minority Whip and GOP representative for Louisiana told former Utah Rep. Jason Chaffetz, who was filling in as host on "Hannity" Friday.
"You now signed on for the Socialist paradise of San Francisco
...where God struck dead Anton LaVey, home of the Sydney Ducks, ruled by Vigilance Committee from 1859 through 1867, reliably and volubly Democrat since 1964...
values, and by the way, what are you doing there? Why are you collecting a paycheck if you want Nancy Pelosi to vote for you and represent your district?" Scalise said, adding that the bill "goes against Article I of the Constitution" by allowing 20 Democrats who are not present to make up a quorum on the House floor.
If it were to become law, the bill would, for the first time in the House’s 231-year history, allow a member to name a colleague to vote on their behalf. The member acting as a proxy, in addition, can represent up to 10 politicians under the new rule.
