annoyed that we allowed one defection, but one defection from jared golden, who doesn't matter and whose vote didn't matter, is a very strong showing. now it's the senate's turn.
Continuing resolution passes 217-213.
Massie votes no from the GOP, Jared Golden ( @golden.house.gov) votes yes from the Dems. 1 not voting from each party.

The Republican House majority may very well end up being the smallest in 100+ years.
Just 1 GOP defection and the Dems could kill a bill.
Those motherfuckers think they handed that rapist felon traitor a “mandate.”
Not even fucking close.

As well as being just, this is also clever, as North Korean troops will recognise the new route to defection, NK leadership and loyal officials will recognise the risk, and the fighting efficiency of those sent there will be reduced by the effort of trying to guard against defection.

one major asymmetry is the way in which defection from the party consensus at the left edge of the party is considered betrayal because it's principed, but defection from the consensus at the right edge of the party is trustworthy because it is presumed to be a dishonest appeal to moderates.

When people withdraw from epistemic infrastructure that has humiliated them, that's not irrational. It's what rational actors do when institutions fail them. You can see this as "epistemic defection", and the direction of that defection is shaped by what's available when it happens.

Four GOP Senators.
At most four Repubs in the House.
Together they could stop nearly all the mad-king's rampages. They would be known to history as Profiles in Courage. They might/would lose the next election. But people have sacrificed a lot more, for a lot less.

When Adam Gray wins, it will be 220-215 in the House. Gaetz is out, and Trump has named three GOP members to his administration. So… 217-215 for the first few months? One defection margin? Good luck, Mike Johnson!
