Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Because Johnson. He was aware people were en route and closed the vote.

Its also misleading, its "some of the 11". Pelosi was in CA for a veterans day event, another was going in for a medical procedure, another had an unrelated (and unspecified) personal emergency, like 4 said they were stuck in traffic (motorcade blocking traffic), and I think it was 2 at the AIPAC event.

Not excusing anything here BTW, just pointing out the title is kinda shitty.
