A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'm confident leadership whipped the votes hard on this one, probably as a futile show of unity. That's where the blame lies.
It would indeed be nice to see a few democrats resisting attacks on the constitution and such but in the house a small number of voices cannot block legislation like in the senate.
I would also like to hear an explanation from AOC just to understand the politics of not acting as the singular democratic "no" vote here. But I'm not going to hold her to task given the obvious failure of leadership.
