He's just going to fuck up his local area for his next excursion, the fucking traitor.

Won't be forgetting anytime soon.

Did he get a "gift?"

Because he got primaried from the left.

Revenge on the country. Plus whatever promised rewards

... shun him forever.

He has been a terrible disappointment, but Bruce Poliquin was loathsome. I am glad Golden is not running again, and I really hope his rearranged district, now including me, will fend off the even more loathsome Paul Lepage.

The northern half of Maine is full of deplorables, sorry to say, so it's going to be a nail biter.

Never be hungry again, Golden. Attaboy!

He represents an extremely rural (and White) district that went for Trump even when he (Golden) was elected. And he came in 2nd in the 2020 election, but with ranked-choice voting he was bumped up to the winner. All his elections have been squeakers, so it's not clear how well a progressive Dem would do. Hopefully we'll find out in November.

So what's the point of this thread?

If there is a tie, the vote fails.

If so, even a tie vote would have it fail. It would have needed to be 215-214 for it to pass, so while the decision to vote 'no' was despicable, it didn't alter the outcome.

he would be in Congress casting the vote, and we would know who the war mongers are.

And give him a title, Lord Davenport.

just like the real Lord "Fast Eddie" Davenport.

in America, they can thank JD "Couchf*cker" Vance for setting a fine example of "alternate love" for all the MAGA boys out there.

which Golden lacks.

This vote was in the House

Let him go sign up to fight in the war he is so eager to support.

...we wouldn't be in this situation today, if Dems had not been complicit from the beginning > Nixon & Reagan. How many cycles have we gone through of Republican wrecking ball and Dem "cleaning" up, calming people down, and downplaying all of our concerns?

They are all touting a version of "just a little pain now, things will be better soon, trust us" mantra.

When Dems get back into power to do yet another round of "cleanup" we will then hear, "there is no money to do anything, the debt and deficit are out of control."

This doesn't mean don't vote!

This means we have got vote in masses while also identifying these people and getting them the hell out of the Democratic party, one way or another.

Makes me sick! 1 "Dem" fascist sympathizer giving cover to all those MAGA REPUBLICON fascists. Disgusting.

NO MORE WARS!
Release the EPSTEIN FILES!

I know that The Pope would like a word!

Maybe he should volunteer to go with the navy to the strait of Hormuz.

…he had chance to stop a war and didn’t take it. That deserves an eternity at the lowest level of hell.

Received over 3 million from AIPAC

That other Dems really wanted to vote for this but couldn’t because it would anger their voters. Since Golden isn’t running again they used him to throw the clinker in the vote. He took the fall for them. I don’t know how true that might be but I read it yesterday.

The house can't actually end the war, but he should have voted to do so anyway

he does not care.
