Honestly, ex ante if you told me Johnson adjusted Massie punishment for filming the House floor, I wouldn't have been sure the adjustment was downward.
Here's a very interesting soft precedent for filming on the House floor.

As I like to say, the first two rules of Congress Club are: 1. There is very little entirely new under the sun. 2. Don't think you've learned all the esoterica; there's almost always something more esoteric out there to discover.

@NateMeyvis @MattGlassman312 This time of the year certainly is best. Just had March Madness and The Masters, too.
@MattGlassman312 Was just thinking about this; agreed. Also the steady stream of regular-season baseball isn't nothing, and there's decisive Premier League stuff happening earlier in the day (a few days a week) if you happen to be into that.
@MattGlassman312 @NateSilver538 @Ch_JesusChrist Plenty of jokes on LDS Twitter!!
@MattGlassman312 @NateSilver538 (And Deacons are 12 year old boys in the @Ch_JesusChrist).
@MattGlassman312 @NateSilver538 ‘Bees’ is another Mormony possibility
@MattGlassman312 @NateSilver538 Some folks in Utah would be pretty upset if there was an LDS name tie in. Probably best to avoid it.
We have to stop thinking in these terms or we're all go nuts by July
Recent momentum for Biden has faded in swing states, according to new poll by @Bloomberg and @MorningConsult. Trump leads in NC (+10), Nev. (+8), Ariz. (+7), Ga. (+6), Wisc. (+4) and Pa. (+1). Biden edges Trump in only one swing state, Mich. (+2). pro-assets.morningconsult.com/wp-uploads/202…
@ProcessParty @MattGlassman312 @danielschuman In this particular case, clause 3(g)(1) of rule II directs the sergeant-at-arms to fine members who violate "any applicable Speaker's announced policy on electronic devices", so the Speaker can clearly change those policies (presumably not without announcing it, though).
@MattGlassman312 @ringwiss I guess “person the Speaker has political reasons not to antagonize” would be more accurate
@MattGlassman312 @danielschuman @ProcessParty Yes, I was suggesting that the House would punish Massie itself, rather than requiring the speaker or sergeant-at-arms to do anything. x.com/ringwiss/statu…
@danielschuman @MattGlassman312 @ProcessParty Probably a question of privilege rather than a point of order.
@MattGlassman312 I can't find it now, but a member in the past week (or so) tweeted video of his very young daughter playing reporter on the House floor – holding a mic and asking questions.
@MattGlassman312 As for (2), the policy also states that "The Ser[j]eant-at-Arms will endeavo[u]r to provide Members a written warning prior to assessing a fine for a first offen[c]e," but it doesn't sound like that's what's going on here.
@MattGlassman312 Maybe that has as much impact as the announcement relating to voting... 😉
@ringwiss @MattGlassman312 What’s the precedent? That friends of the Speaker don’t have to follow the rules?
@MattGlassman312 I don't know how to square this with the Speaker's announcement at the beginning of this Congress: "No device may be used for still photography or for audio or video recording or for live broadcasting." 🤔
Anonymous quote is from this piece on weekly Zoom calls held by Trump legal pundits >> politico.com/news/magazine/…
@WakeUp2Politics Buchanan clearly thought that Dred Scott was going to solve all his problems.
@ThisSideOp @MattGlassman312 It has been done, but not universally. Presumably it depends on how crucial the question is to the underlying business. As you can see in my screenshot above, ultimately it's up to the House.
@ThisSideOp @MattGlassman312 The chair doesn't have to respond straight away. If a mistake is made, the chair can correct themselves later.
