Too late now, but they should:
1. Ensure these members have no tickets to hand out and ensure any tickets they did hand out are invalid. If your congressman doesn’t show up, you can’t either.
2. What a great time to call a surprise session of Congress! Swear the oath, walk into Congress, have them pass a bunch of bills, and sign them right there when Democrats are AWOL.
I object to the photo of the little boy crying. He may have had something actually worth crying about, unlike the honorable ladies and gentleman on the list above.
Because nothing says serious politician like skipping a Presidential inauguration …
To hear these people, the media, etc, you’d think that half the people in this country hadn’t voted for Trump – how could they have when “everybody” (aka everybody who “matters”) voted for Clinton.
These guys are so tone deaf they’re never going to win back the seats they’ve lost.
After the election, we’re all Americans — if these folks follow a diffferent star, correct it at the ballot box next.
Did Donald Trump lie about saving jobs at Carrier? Of course he did . . . after all, his lips were moving which means he was lying.
In February 2016 Carrier told more than 2,000 workers at two factories in the Hoosier State they were going to be fired and production would shift to Monterrey, Mexico.
After a video of the workers being fired went viral, Trump made Carrier a poster-child of offshoring during the presidential campaign. Following his victory, Trump turned the screws on Carrier to keep jobs in the United States.
That enabled Trump to sweep into Indianapolis on December 1 as a job-saving hero. He announced before a packed house of employees and news media that more than 1,100 jobs would stay in the Carrier plant.
But the numbers Trump announced don’t add up. When union leaders met with the company right before Trump went on stage, they were told 730 union jobs would be saved at the Indianapolis plant―nearly 400 less than Trump announced. Trump was apparently
including 350 engineering and administrative employees, but they were never leaving. That meant 550 workers would lose their jobs in Indianapolis as well as 738 workers at Huntington, which would shut down entirely.
So — 550 jobs lost in Indianapolis PLUS 738 lost at Huntington = 1,288 JOBS LOST
Trump did not save a goddam thing.
Your math is typical of the new leftist math. You start with over 2000 workers being told they were going to be fired but not an exact number. Then you crow about 1288 jobs being lost as if that was wonderful. Well, to get to 1100 jobs saved, that means the 2000 number is really about 2300 to 2400 jobs in total. Trump’s intervention saved slightly less than half the jobs but you would prefer that all the jobs were lost so you could play the “nah nah” game of 3 year olds.
No, I do not celebrate the loss of any jobs. I also do not celebrate a perpetual liar who is about to move into the White House.
Get back to me in a few months with the progress on:
— building the wall
— making Mexico pay for it
— banning Muslim immigrants
— tariffs on imports, especially from China
— coal mining jobs
— bringing jobs back from overseas
— 350 ship Navy
— oh, and lower taxes on all of us without running up the debt
Finally, did you even read the article? 550 of those jobs were engineering and management THAT WERE NOT ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK TO START WITH.
There are as many sexes as there are days until the election.

You might want to check on perpetual liar Obama. His lies about obamacare and benghazi in specific did great damage to the USA.
So now you say it was only 600 jobs saved at Carrier. Far better than what Obama would have yielded or, for that matter, Madame Clinton.
I know a business person who created a new job for a woman simply because Trump asked business people in the country to create new jobs. It isn’t much, but it happened. Trump did something that Obama never thought to do – he respectfully asked business people to create jobs. Somewhat ingenious approach if you ask me. You want more sweaters, you ask people who make sweaters to make them. You want more bread, you ask people who bake bread to make it. You want more jobs, you ask people who make jobs to create them. Pretty damn simple.
You could be right, but he will be President on Friday. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/6967c0e53a28520cbddb0902361ff085233e4f165db8290da90056b03d2505e9.jpg
There is some poetic justice for Clooney. While he was going all out for illegal immigration, his hideout in Italy got a batch of invaders placed nearby.
Don Beyer’s constituents should burn up his telephone lines.
His constituents are as nutty as he is. They’re all probably calling Beyer a hero.
Video of the announcement on Blue Virginia shows him receiving a standing O after he announced he wouldn’t attend the inauguration.
Sounds about right. Unfortunately for the 8th, no one in Congress pays much attention to Beyer, so they’re kinda screwed. Something they seem to be content with.
I wonder why Connolly isn’t on this list? Not showing up seems to be his thing.
And, now he has. Just late to the party.
If we are deplorable, are these people despicable?
The fact that the Congress, the Senate AND the Presidency are all in Republican control makes them pretty powerless. This disrespect makes them even more irrelevant. Meh.
