Or what the leverage is against the two.

Or (most likely) a little of both.

Trump is going to be threatening them; not pleading with them.

He will threaten anything to get what he wants.

It sounds like Trump thinks she’s a prime candidate, too.

But she is a loose cannon either way.

Did you hear Leavitt’s explanation

...if they said "No" to Trump. They will break under pressure, I would guess.

But if they did, would they then take the rap for the cover-up?

They shoulda kept this arm twisting stuff private

They can easily be kissed or kicked into compliance.

Boebert and Mace have been softened up to fold already. Today they're just going to hear the specifics of "or else."

Republicans will never come up with a better program than the ACA. The only real answer is Single-Payer and they seem to be "over my dead body" about that.

serious threats. "Silver or lead" as the saying goes. However, he has been weakened by recent events, and the chances of them holding firm are better today than they were a few months ago.

As soon as the petition receives 218 signature, it is officially entered into the record and members can no longer remove their signature.

Grijalva is set to be sworn in around 4:00 pm and as soon as that happens, my understanding is she will immediately sign the petition.

there will be another Democrat elected to the House via a Special Election Runoff in Texas in January (both candidates in the runoff are Democrats). There is also a Special Election in December in Tennessee which is likely to be won by the Republican, but there is at least an extremely slight but nonzero chance for the Democrat to win.

Threatening their lives. I suspect door number 2.
Cave or the hounds of hell will rip you and your families into hamberder meat.

… some Repuke to cave and pull their name from the petition, before the House had to vote on it.

Resulting in a 217-217 tie. The cover up is complete.

My money is on MTG because she’s been a pain in his bountiful butt over the shutdown, the Georgia Senate race and Epstein. Plus she didn’t get a pleading presidential call.

In addition to a possible court case, it would take months to replace them. Right now there are 219 Republicans and 214 Democrats with 2 vacant seats. There would then be 217 Republicans to our 214 if they were expelled. One of the vacant seats is a run off in January between 2 Democrats, the other is the TN seat where Republicans are favored.

So, until elections to replace these two, on any piece of legislation, he could lose at most ONE representative and if, in a miracle, we win TN, he can't lose any with 217 R to 216 D. Not to mention, given their dysfunction, could we get one Republican to become independent and caucus with us?
