        Ted Lieu is quote tweeting articles about Pelosi blocking his rule changes to hold the admin accountable. Some of them are trying!https://twitter.com/tedlieu/status/1294775374350434305?s=20 …

        You know what we should pass immediately? My House Rules change to allow the House to execute our power of Inherent Contempt against Administration officials. Our Democracy is at stake. There is no longer any excuse not to exercise all the powers we have. https://twitter.com/bresreports/status/1294767883315286021 …

        Everyone’s dunking on Nancy Pelosi and congressional Democrats for their delayed action, but be fair. They have to wait for the polling to finish up to see if “taking any action at all” would be a popular move. You can’t expect them to do the right thing if it’s unpopular.

        @HouseDemocrats This is the time to be 💯 energized. Stay front row centre and push back on every attempt by @GOP to break the rules. Do this until Biden is inaugurated.

        We're gonna need some stronger action than this by the end of it. Imagine the sorts of actions that'll be needed to drag him out of office. Imagine the mass movement that would require. Imagine shit, I don't know, any revolution in history. That's what it'd need.
