John,
TGIF for Congressman Shri Thanedar because that means his terrible, no good, very bad week can finally come to an end.
First, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib from the neighboring district endorsed Donavan McKinney for Congress. She said the #1 reason why was because of how terrible Shri is at the most basic function of their job as members of Congress: constituent services.
Then, Shri immediately announced he would be introducing seven articles of impeachment against Donald Trump and forcing a vote on them — as progressives were focused on trying to stop the GOP from ramming a budget bill that would defund Medicaid to pay for billionaire tax cuts.
After that, his colleagues said this about him:
Finally, at the 11th hour, he pulled the plug on the vote after leadership told him they would be voting against it.
There's no question Donald Trump has committed impeachable offenses, but Shri’s political stunts were just that. Another multimillionaire playing political games with constituents’ lives.
Thank you for powering our movement,
Alexandra Rojas
Executive Director
