The issues swirling around the #FiveWhiteGuys are larger than just @NancyPelosi.

It's their tactics, and it's the threats they've had the fucking audacity, to leverage against the party and the entire nation.

In my opinion each one of these men should face a #recall vote.

1/

The idea that a small minority would hijack any part of the democratic process given what we've gone through the past three years is unimaginable.

And changing the rules midstream because you are not happy with the outcome a fair vote will get?

Seriously?

That's straight up Republican bullshit right there. That's Tea Party, #BananaRepublic, anti-democratic tomfoolery.

It has no place in this nation, nevermind the Democratic Party, currently charged with the protection of American democracy itself.

It gets worse.

Their many sins against the party were not enough for the #FiveWhiteGuys, however. They felt it was appropriate to ransom off #TheResistance and everything we've worked for, they intend to place the entire nation back in harm's way in order to force their minority opinion.

Try wrapping you head around the fact that if their demands are not met they, and their group of lackeys, intend to abstain from the leadership and committee floor votes.

Doing so would give the Republicans the opportunity to capture the Speakership and all Chair positions.

5/

After everything we've fought for these #FiveWhiteGuys believe they are powerful enough to be allowed to thwart our democracy.

They intend to hand the House back to Republican control because temper tantrum.

This is unacceptable and feels almost treasonous on a real level.

I have not yet researched the the rules/laws governing the #recall process, but something must be done.

A signal must sent thst these kinds of behavior and these kind of tactics will not be tolerated.

The arrogance of these #FiveWhiteGuys astounds.
