The GOP chair was caught off guard and scrambled—first delaying the vote, then trying to sabotage it by adding amendments to include Biden administration communications. Democrats called their bluff and agreed.

Then the GOP chair, Rep. Higgins, lied, claiming the motion FAILED until Rep. Robert Garcia forced a full roll call vote.

Ultimately, the vote passed 8-2 after 3 Republicans DEFIED their leadership and joined all 5 Democrats to pass the motion.

      Just bottom rung people looking down on the only people left categorically worse than them.

      That’s why “chomos” need to be protected in jail.

      That’s why wanna be Chris Hansen’s are usually as creepy as the creeps they catch.

      That’s why violence posted online gets a free pass when its framed as a pedo getting btfu.
