A rebellion led by Rep. Luna and eight other Republicans joining Democrats put a likely unconstitutional rule in place. It has delayed the budget bill and bills to stop these radical, lawless judges. Now, nothing can happen until next week.
Do we have to worry about Rep. Luna now?
Johnson tried to block the rule and failed.
The rule change will allow Representatives who are new parents to vote by proxy. It’s ridiculous. They should show up. They do little enough to make this country better as it is and it’s opening a can of worms.
Mr. Johnson and his allies have argued that any accommodation that allows members to vote without being at the Capitol, no matter how narrow, creates a slippery slope for more, and that it harms member collegiality.
“I do believe it’s an existential issue for this body,” Representative Virginia Foxx, a North Carolina Republican who chairs the Rules Committee, said on Tuesday. “Congress is defined as the ‘act of coming together and meeting.’”
During COVID, one Representative was voting from another country.
Mike Johnson telling you Republicans are stalling Trump’s agenda, shocker
Who could have seen this coming?

Stupid people do stupid things. Just because they are in congress doesn’t exempt them from being dumb. Or could it be they have something to hide and don’t want to change the status quo. Now we know who they are, it’s time to audit their books. A little, very public, scrutiny goes a long way.
Yes, I do believe Luna is getting too big for her position…too bad, too, because Florida as well as the US Congress needs more sane conservatives.
Luna’s remote voting for “moms” is a HORRIBLE idea. It will open the flood gates for all kinds of equality BS for “dads”, then LGBTQ. Then we’ll see Pete Buttgig style 6 months at home BS. The issue is simple. When a teacher has her own child in her classroom, she has to be a teacher, not a mom. She can be a mom AT HOME – but AT WORK she’s NOT a mom. Smart woman KNOW this. Apparently SELFISH Luna does NOT.
Has nothing to do with governing nor with constitutional law. It is leftists ideology.
Luna is absolutely dedicated to exposing some of the biggest conspiracies and cover-ups of our lifetime that most other members of congress would not touch with a bargepole. I am not sure that she fully understood the consequences of what she did here, and I am not ready to “cancel” her yet like the Democrats do… but yes, this is an unfortunate outcome. I would like to hear her response, but I think it has something to do with her 1-year old child. If you are planning to run for public office, it’s best to put off having children if that would interfere with your duties.
She needs to show better judgement.
Luna has gone Loony.
