This was the whole thing with can Pence do anything (No, they just sort of run the procedures, they have no role in the decisions). And then also the whole thing where Grassley (Senate pro-tem) didn't "expect Pence to be there" aka he knew about the Jan 6 plans ahead of time, but like the other GOP reps and senators involved, will never be held accountable.

I don’t see the republicans not confirming the ECs because there is very little benefit to doing it. There is reason to say you won’t as long as trump is a thing but if he loses what exactly will you get?

Without a valid EC vote, it goes to the house but they get only one vote per state, not per representative. In case you weren't sure. Yes, it really does just take a simple majority vote in the new house for a GOP house to reject the EC votes and get whatever president they want and nullify the entire election. The only thing stopping them would be the sense of decorum/duty of the handful of moderate representatives left.

That’s also not even remotely how the procedure works. Refusing to certify the election doesn’t magically give the decision on next president to the House. That leap of logic is big enough to trap a tank.

Jim Jordan getting sanctimonious about bullshit he's actively done is one of the most infuriating things in the current US Government. Dude could never even get close to the speakership. He stochastically terrorized his Republican colleagues, and had multiple screaming fits behind closed doors (also in front of all his Republican colleagues), all so he could lose to Mike loving Johnson, the guy who doesn't report his income because he gives all his money to his pastor. The skeletons in that closet are, for lack of a better metaphor, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVjk5nrb_lI

Pot Smoke Phoenix posted:It's really weird. Not really, you have to remember that Trump only came to prominence because all the GOP already there hated each other so much that they wouldn't vouch for each other to be a candidate for election. They are secretly trying to get him to leave, but can't say anything otherwise the death threats and chud-poo poo insanes start throwing their own poo poo at them. Of course there are the TRUE BELIEVERS like Greene and Boebert, but they always flame out in a spiral of poo poo. Its easier to stay of the grift train that is US politics if you keep your head down, vote with the herd, and don't make eye contact with the train driver or conductor.

Grouchio posted:To clarify, you mean 'oh just fill out this vetting form that will totally get us the people we need' or something else? Yeah, the vetting forum means only psychotic true believers will get on the program. When trump tried his dumb rear end purges near the end last time. The system told these people to go gently caress themselves and isolated them. Rod Hoofhearted posted:Not even. The Bush/McCain/Romney Republican Party is dead. Their only chance at winning anymore is Trump. It’s 100% cult of personality, after him there is no successor. Yeah, Haley is the last stand for that wing. I think a bunch were hoping for desantis but him being a dumbass charisma vacuum AND a weird morality police bigot kinda hosed him. Haley is already doomed because she is giving a bunch of awful answers to questions for moderates.

Hollismason posted:The Republican's doing that would basically be the end of our democracy. It's not going to happen. I mean I certainly would like to believe they don't have enough nutjobs to do something like that yet. The biggest argument is that the GOP members knew the objections would not work, and were just doing it to posture and show support for Trump. It's a lot easier to vote for something totally insane if you know won't pass, but harder to do it if it could actually, you know, completely upend democracy. I just am sick of having to rely on the decorum of a handful of moderates for things like, even having elections.

Dude's a sweaty, dweeby rear end in a top hat who tries to bully everyone, though; that's very true. Scott Steiner would be a better, more effective Senator. At least people would actually be scared of Steiner.  Liz Cheney telling Jim Jordan, "Get away from me, you loving did this." while he tried to comfort the womenfolk on J6.Making me feel any kind of positive feelings or sympathy toward a member of Richard Cheney's family is, personally, the greatest crime Jim Jordan ever committed.

https://www.thedailybeast.com/lauren-boeberts-ex-husband-jayson-called-the-cops-after-physical-fight-in-public heres a new Bobort article in the Daily Beast if you guys wanna check it out, I don't know how people feel about that publication here On Saturday night, three years to the day after supporters of Donald Trump attacked the U.S. Capitol building, election objecting Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) is the subject of an active police investigation into an alleged physical altercation with her ex-husband, Jayson Boebert, at a restaurant in her district Saturday night. The Silt Police Department confirmed an “active investigation” in a phone call Saturday night, but would not comment further. A Boebert aide told The Daily Beast that no one was arrested. According to the aide, on Saturday, Jayson Boebert had called the police to the Miner’s Claim restaurant in Silt, claiming that he was a “victim of domestic violence.” The aide emphasized that Lauren Boebert denies any allegation of domestic violence on her part, and that the events as depicted in social media posts on Saturday were not accurate. An anti-Boebert super PAC called “American Muckrakers” first publicized the rumor of the incident Saturday night, in eye-popping posts on X, formerly Twitter. While The Daily Beast has not been able to verify all of the specific claims contained in those posts, on Saturday night the Boebert aide provided more detail about the events, as Boebert had described them. In the early evening on Saturday, the aide said, it was already getting physical. Lauren Boebert had driven to her ex-husband’s house to pick up one of her sons for dinner at her mother’s house. Jayson Boebert was home, the aide said, and as Lauren Boebert and her son were leaving for the car, he tried to move in close to hug her; she put her hand on his chest to keep him back, the aide said. When Jayson Boebert called later that evening to apologize, he asked if they could meet in person. Lauren Boebert agreed; however, the aide said, she wanted to go to a public place, anticipating that—especially given the alleged behavior earlier that day—he might be confrontational. The congresswoman “didn’t want it to be he said/she said” situation, the aide said. They chose to meet at Miner’s Claim, a restaurant in Boebert’s small hometown of Silt. (Miner’s Claim is, apparently, the only game left in town, now that the Boeberts have closed their old restaurant, Shooter’s.) Inside, at the table, Jayson Boebert apparently started “being disrespectful,” “being an rear end in a top hat,” and getting “lewd,” the aide relayed. The alleged behavior revolted Lauren Boebert, but that seemed to make her ex more aggressive, the aide said. There was then apparently a physical altercation of indeterminate severity. Jayson Boebert “made a motion” towards his ex-wife, “to grab her.” It was “an aggressive move, not romantic,” the aide relayed. As Lauren Boebert described it, the aide said, she tried again to keep him back and in the process “put her hand in his face, put her hand on his nose.” (The Muckrackers’ post describes a violent confrontation, with the congresswoman landing two punches on her ex’s nose. The aide said that Boebert maintains she didn’t punch him.) Jayson Boebert, apparently outraged, called the police, claiming that he was “a victim of domestic violence,” the Boebert aide said. Lauren Boebert then called the non-emergency number and told the police there was no domestic violence, and that she’d be happy to speak with an officer at the restaurant. The police did come, but they arrested no one, the aide said, adding that a friend drove Boebert home, and that she and her former husband were both safe. Contacted Saturday night, Silt police would not comment other than to confirm an “active investigation” into the alleged events, along with the existence of a police report. Asked in a phone call about the altercation, which he had apparently alleged himself, Jayson Boebert would not confirm that an incident had occurred, telling The Daily Beast, “I don’t know what to say.”

I do see that they passed some clarifying updates https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/congress-approves-new-election-certification-rules-in-response-to-jan-6 Some of the stuff now has a requirement of 1/5th of the house/senate. But it's unclear what happens if a majority objects (like say all republicans). Does it not go to a vote with 1 vote per state?

Bone Crimes posted:what is the process if this happens tho? in general, the election would be kicked back to the states to resolve whatever issues Congress had with it, with a temporary executive sorted out in the meantime; possibly just the previous president in an even more lame-duck scenario than he was already in. the house decision happens if there is a certified election wherein nobody wins a majority/nobody gets to 270. simply refusing to certify the election and going thanos "i'll just do it myself" is textbook subversion of the will of the people.
