Katherine Clark is the Democratic Whip in the House, and it is thus her responsibility to ensure members are there to vote.
Clark is also a founding member of EDW, which hosted an event tonight from 4:30pm to 6:30pm, overlapping with the 5:30pm vote on the Hegseth impeachment.
Of the 11 members who missed the Hegseth vote, 8 have received support from EDW or its AIPAC-tied super PAC EDW Action. Of those 8, two are sitting board members.
Republicans just blocked the House from impeaching Pete Hegseth.
They are protecting an unqualified, incompetent man over our servicemembers.
What a disgrace.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
House Dems say Republicans protected Hegseth. 211-204 vote sent Massie’s resolution to committee, killing it. Massie was sole R voting to advance.
All present Dems voted to advance, but 11 Dems (incl. Pelosi) were absent—their votes would have defeated the motion.

DEMS have it down to a science. They vote for show, for speeches, or for deniability. It's all hashed out ahead of time.
The painfully obvious take away is that DEM leadership didn't want Hegseth impeached.
Somebody tell DEM voters.

Senior Dems will make life ‘hell’ without Jeffries vote, freshman rep says politi.co/3WAWpOV

Here’s @ryangrim pointing out some of the Dems who missed the Hegseth vote were coincidentally at a “new member reception” for a group that served as a pass-through for AIPAC money
(Then claimed “stuck in traffic”🤔)

NEW: Remember Aliya Rahman, the Minneapolis resident whose image went viral earlier this year after ICE agents violently dragged her out of her car as she was driving to a doctor’s appointment?
Today, she sued the U.S. government. huffpost.com/entry/aliya-rah…

Democrats winning big and then immediately showing everyone that they’re still spineless losers who fail on purpose
Once again the Democrats deliver results for the Epstein Regime, not voters who just handed them majorities
BREAKING: Thomas Massie’s resolution to impeach Pete Hegseth fails in the House 211-204, after 11 Democrats failed to show up for the vote.
If those 11 Democrats had showed up, Hegseth would have been impeached 215-211.

Here are the 11 Democrats who couldn’t be bothered to show up to impeach war criminal Pete Hegseth:
Nancy Pelosi (CA-11)
Haley Stevens (MI-11)
Julia Brownley (CA-26)
Lou Correa (CA-46)
Laura Gillen (NY-4)
Steven Horsford (NV-4)
Jonathan Jackson (IL-1)
Brittany Pettersen (CO-7)
Melanie Stansbury (NM-1)
Marilyn Strickland (WA-10)
Frederica Wilson (FL-24)
If these 11 Democrats had showed up, Hegseth would’ve been impeached 215-211.
There are no excuses left to make. The Democrats couldn’t even show up to hold a war criminal accountable who bombed an elementary school and mass murdered children.

Pelosi did too even though with 10 abstentions the fix was already in. Definitely sending a message to both the donors (Don't worry, we got this) and the voters who just handed them majorities (Fuck you, we don't care what you want).
This type of ideological ossification is precisely why western capitalist liberal democracies will continue to decline while socially managed economies will thrive and eventually become the norm. Describing economics as “value free”is the ideological statement of the century.
Economics is ~value free~ science, a point that has been agreed on since the days of Max Weber. Economics knows no political masters, and when one attempts to impose a master on it, it stops being science and devolves into cheap activism.

Yes we should have mass trials for war criminals, thank you Mark!
The Democrats impeached President Trump a second time and actually had a trial in the Senate when he was a private citizen. Therefore, I propose the impeachment of every past president who is still alive for military operations in which they never received a declaration of war -- impeach them all and try them all -- as this is the new standard. The same for every past, living SecDef and SecState.
