Go find the YouTube video of him yelling at Jim Jordan. Not. Quiet..

In my pro choice, pro sensible gun law, pro public school moderate liberal mind: He’s good. What do you want him to do? Sex in a theatre like Lauren Bobert?


He's had a couple of "Outbursts" in Congressional hearings, one involved him with Tom Homan on the safety of migrant children and another one on Trump's initial response to Covid-19.


Also, I don't think he purposely wants to be "Low-Key"; he ran to be the Chairman of the Oversight Committee for the Dems but lost to Jamie Raskin.

Gerry is amazing. Effective and powerful while still being low-key and under the radar. He’s like a stealth fighter.

+1, he's my rep and there's little that can be done as part of the minority. I've watched him in a couple of the weaponization hearings and he's good at calling out the other side on their BS...but really the hearings are a waste of everybody's time.

Gerry is my rep and Gym Jordan is my parents’ rep in Ohio and I remember when that happened my parents thought it was hilarious! They think Jordan is a total idiot.

Not everyone can be a rockstar like AOC, or the others on The Squad.

We need representatives who will quietly go to work, and vote as the party tells them to.

He maintains a low-profile in a seat that is perfect for him.

Whoever replaces him when he retires will be awful so I guess I'm glad we have him.


Some FCPS school board idiot will replace him and be absolutely obnoxious. I hope he stays in good health and can stay in office until this crazy era ends.

Back in 2015 I went to a Clinton appearance in OT and he appeared and opened up with “Hello Arlington” and I’ve never gotten past that.

He is also a proponent of federal workers, welcome among the omnipresent disdain for them from so many in Congress and outside of it.


He's basically WMATA's biggest federal backer. If it wasn't for Connolly, we would be in much rougher shape.
