She only fulfills the stupid part.

Besides, she is too old and plain.

Now that she's a "player" in Kevin's House (of cards), when can we expect the next command performance?

This says that 213 Dems voted No, and 2 Dems didn't vote. That's a total of 215. There are only 212 Dems in the House right now.

Likewise, the Republican line adds up to 225. There are currently 222 Republicans.

The total at the bottom adds up to 440, not 435.

If we are going to make fun of Greene (and who doesn't like that?) we at least need to be factually correct.

See here:




The amendment failed 14 - 418.

The amendment to the Strategic Production Response Act would have prevented the president from selling oil but was defeated by a vote of 418 to 14, with seven members not voting.
