I like this quote from the founder of the #WalkAway campaign, Brandon Straka:

**A white liberal man complained about the white male patriarchy & told me the way of the future is to turn over power to women of color. I named a roster of black, Hispanic, and Asian conservative women & asked if he’d support them being in power. Silence.
In the end, liberal white males will vote for an 80 year old white male before a woman of color who’s conservative. Why? Because their words mean nothing. They don’t support women of color. They USE women of color as Trojan horses for their own progressive agendas. In the end, using women and using racial minorities this way is the ultimate exercise of misogyny, chauvinism, and racial superiority.**

way to go @DariusGalaxyz, you just advanced to level 14 <:magahat:772838503239122984>

Holy crap guys, did you know that the Senate rules allow for the sergeant-at-arms to arrest members in order to establish a quorum ?!?!?!

2020-12-16 20:53:14 UTC  

Where did you read that?

Press CTRL + F and search for arrest.

2020-12-16 20:56:43 UTC  

I'm currently mobile so I'll have to do that when I get home

2020-12-16 20:57:34 UTC  

I don't know if Pence would resort to that or not, but the sergeant-at-arms can compel or even arrest.

2020-12-16 20:57:59 UTC  

Never mind, it was a PDF so I could just hit the search icon 😅 that's insane though!

2020-12-16 20:59:47 UTC  

I'm confused about something though. I know that if no candidate receives the 270+ votes that the House votes for president from state delegation, but what I'm seeing conflicting info about is during the contestation period of the certification of each of the electors, do they still vote by state delegation, or is it a regular vote ?

2020-12-16 21:01:00 UTC  

It's a sealed vote, so in other words, they voted but no one knows how they voted. come January 6th they open up the envelopes and count the votes.

2020-12-16 21:01:09 UTC  

Is that what you were talking about?

2020-12-16 21:02:07 UTC  

Well that's the entire proces I'm talking about, but I'm talking about both chambers of Congress objecting to and then voting on rejecting certain electors.

2020-12-16 21:03:58 UTC  

I believe if I'm not mistaken on what you're saying, is delegation up until the point where they don't have 270 votes. I'm trying to understand your question sorry.

2020-12-16 21:05:41 UTC  

During the counting of each states' electoral votes, if 1 member from each chamber object to the counting of one, then the joint session of Congress must divide into their separate chambers and debate and then vote on a motion to withdraw the elector(s).

2020-12-16 21:07:30 UTC  

Then that vote would be a regular vote I would imagine

2020-12-16 21:08:04 UTC  

That scares me then cuz there's no way either chamber is gonna vote to discard Biden electors.

2020-12-16 21:20:25 UTC  

Don’t be so sure. The republicans fear a progressive Biden agenda more than they dislike the president.

2020-12-16 21:20:53 UTC  

I don't know if I agree.

2020-12-16 21:21:04 UTC  

The problem is the order that was pushed by the house I believe that said the electoral college voters can not go against the popular vote

2020-12-16 21:21:11 UTC  

Some of the Republicans are wolves in sheep clothing and actually secretly desire what the Dems do

2020-12-16 21:21:22 UTC  

Sorry I’m going back to earlier in the conversation

2020-12-16 21:22:09 UTC  

Which order by the House ?

2020-12-16 21:22:56 UTC  

Not to sure but I remember basically it said the electoral college voters could not vote against the popular vote

2020-12-16 21:23:02 UTC  

Let me see if I can find it

2020-12-16 21:23:58 UTC  

I don't think that's in a law, sounds like somebody's opinion

2020-12-16 21:25:12 UTC  

I think this has something to do with it

2020-12-16 21:25:52 UTC  

I’m not so good on all the legal stuff though, so let me know if I’m wrong

2020-12-16 21:26:17 UTC  

That is an opinion like you were saying

2020-12-16 21:27:05 UTC  

No no, I don't mean a court opinion, that's different cuz it's legally binding, lol. By opinion, I meant by just a regular person or a non-justice.

2020-12-16 21:30:18 UTC  

This also seem related, but again I’m not very smart when it comes to this stuff so sorry

2020-12-16 21:30:51 UTC  

I think that's the same case, lol.

2020-12-16 21:31:17 UTC  

Well it was related then 😅

2020-12-16 21:37:57 UTC  

Well then now I'm not sure what to make of any of this, cuz it wouln't matter what happens outside of court then, right ?

2020-12-16 21:38:06 UTC  

January 6th, 2021 wouldn't matter

2020-12-16 22:01:43 UTC  

we're not hoping they vote against the populous vote, we want there vote to not count, that's why we're hopping they get rejected.

2020-12-16 22:02:55 UTC  

That's true, lol.

2020-12-16 22:03:00 UTC  

Yeah yeah for sure
