The New York progressive was asked how to convince people who supported Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein that they were "wasting their time and effort." "You are the leader of your party," Ocasio-Cortez said of Stein, who's running for president for the third time this year after mounting bids in 2012 and 2016. In interviews at the Capitol last week, they ranged from conciliatory to critical when the topic of the Green Party arose. Rep. Greg Casar of Texas even confessed that the Green Party "hasn't been something that's crossed my mind a lot." AdvertisementRep. Becca Balint of Vermont charged that candidates like Stein and West are "ego driven" and "not reading the room."

☆ Israeli Weapon Damaged Iranian Air Defenses Without Being Detected, Officials Say

Some Democrats are fine sending defensive weapons to Israel, but want to see some limits on offensive weapons, which could be used against civilians in Gaza. But progressive Democrats estimated that 40 to 60 members of their party may oppose it on the House floor on Saturday. The legislation would allocate $5 billion to Israel’s defense capabilities and $9 billion for “worldwide humanitarian aid,” including for civilians in Gaza. “To give Netanyahu more offensive weapons at this stage, I believe, is to condone the destruction of Gaza that we’ve seen in the last six months. But they see a “no” vote as part of a strategy to pressure Mr. Biden to condition aid and halt future offensive weapons transfers.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A bill to create a bipartisan commission that would tackle the nation’s soaring debt and make policy recommendations to Congress won approval Thursday from a House committee. Many Democrats see the commission as an attempt to force cuts to Social Security and Medicare. The commission would have 16 members: 12 from Congress, evenly divided by party, and four outside experts who would not have voting power. Republicans blame federal spending for the annual deficits while many Democrats cite tax cuts enacted under Republican administrations. Three committee Democrats voted for it, including Rep. Scott Peters, D-Calif., who worked with Rep. Bill Huizenga, R-Mich. in sponsoring the bill.

As fast as the money comes in from the pay raises that millennials and Gen Zers have secured, for parents the money goes right back out.

Two Republican lawmakers have filed separate resolutions to censure Tlaib this week, after a similar effort failed last week. “I have been really careful, partly because our Michigan delegation is so small, and we work together,” Stevens told CNN. “Democratic Rep. Brad Schneider is circulating a statement condemning Tlaib’s recent comments but stopped short of saying he supports a censure resolution. Last week, 23 House Republicans opposed a Tlaib censure resolution led by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. But a censure motion is not the way to do it.”The proposed Tlaib censure has sparked a tit-for-tat among lawmakers looking to target one another across the aisle.

House Democrats were mostly stuck in DC for 3 weeks as the GOP struggled to choose a new speaker. Some Democrats told Insider they found a silver lining, like hitting the gym or dog-sitting. That left Democrats, already lined up behind House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, scrambling to find other things to fill the time. "I almost forget what it's like to be in committee at this point," Rep. Becca Balint of Vermont told Insider on Tuesday. Balint said that a "personal source of joy" for her was getting to dog sit Rep. Sharice Davids' rescue dog, Peanut.

Raskin asked House Oversight Chairman James Comer to reprimand Greene for showing partially nude photos that are purportedly of Hunter Biden. Otherwise, Raskin cautioned, the panel's reputation "is rapidly being reduced to the level of a 1970s-era dime store peep show." I hope Ranking Member Raskin will join me in asking the Justice Department about Hunter Biden's Mann Act violations and why the victims' rights have been ignored." The Georgia Republican has alleged based on purported information obtained from Hunter Biden's laptop that he paid sex workers, potentially violating the century-plus old Mann Act. Rep. Becca Balint, a Vermont Democrat, is pushing a censure of Greene for a litany of past actions, including showing the purported Biden photos.

A House Democrat may force the House to vote on formally censuring Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Among the offending behavior is Greene's decision to show nude photos of Hunter Biden during a House hearing. Balint could use a procedural move to force the House to consider formally punishing Greene, The Washington Post reported. A separate effort is underway to censure Rep. George Santos, a New York Republican, who has admitted to falsifying multiple claims during his campaign and is facing federal fraud charges. "And that is absolutely what I regret," Greene said on the House floor before the vote.

More than 340 anti-LGBTQ bills have been introduced in state legislatures this year, according to the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest LGBTQ advocacy group. The word “grooming” has long been associated with mischaracterizing LGBTQ people, particularly gay men and transgender women, as child sex abusers. "So, if you're voting against some LGBTQ rights, you're not voting against LGBTQ rights in abstract anymore, but you're voting to deny rights to someone who sits next to you every day at work."
