The Democrats are trying to make a mountain out of a molehill. There’s nothing there, nothing of importance, and the Trump administration has already asked the courts to start working on the release, so there’s no point in the House getting involved anyway.
This is such a non-issue that the Republicans have shut down the entire legislative session and won’t vote on any of their own bills until September. Again, Democrats are just trying to make a show out of nothing, which is why blocking it is the Republicans’ top priority. Their work would be redundant anyway, which is why the Republicans are so unafraid to vote on it that everyone just up and left.
On an unrelated note, my favorite local restaurant is so clean and compliant with all regulations that when visited by the food inspector they turned out the lights, locked all the doors, and refused to serve any food again until the health department leaves. As one does when they’re unafraid and have nothing to hide.
That’s not the only blockage to noticing sarcasm, there are so many people who say these / the things and actually MEAN them. We need differentiators, because the crazy levels are too high to wade through.

Dear diary,
Today someone was sarcastic on Lemmy and people liked it. Big day for the fediverse.
They were clear about it. Most people just write a bad take that reasonably suffers from Poe’s law and call it satire when everyone else gets mad.
I literally looked at the upvote as I was reading and had to question if it was sarcasm because it hadn’t been downvote into oblivion…
I had to check if I was in a hexbear thread.
Me too! Its a handy satire indicator
fr. I’ve actually been surprised by how little people are around here seem to understand sarcasm
We’re a pretty neurodivergent crowd. I thrive in sarcasm, but a lot of us come with different care instructions

That is a difficulty. Sometimes you take a risk with a joke, and if people don’t like it? Guess what, they’re right. Humour is subjective.
Please tell me you’re being sarcastic.
Read the whole comment instead of jumping to conclusions.
If I was jumping to conclusions, I would have accused them. That’s why I’m asking.
I take it you didn’t finish reading?
You have no idea how many times I’ve been wrong before. Just double checking.
You had me in the first 2/3 there
