I am astonished at her ability to pass so many bills. Yes I know they go to the senate to die. But we always point out how close the senate is. The house is 220 to 211. You need 218 to pass most house bills. That means shes got two vote leeway. That is not a lot. Shes amazing!!!!!

Crazy to imagine Kevin McCarthy taking the gavel away from her.
If (shudder) they win the house this fall, it might not even be Kevin. One of the lunatics might upset him.

In every contested election we should put their picture and all of the things they have obstructed. The country is at stake not just their district
