The final vote was 224 to 198, with 10 Democrats joining Republicans in favor of the resolution. They included: Ami Bera of California, Ed Case of Hawaii, Jim Costa of California, Laura Gillen of New York, Jim Himes of Connecticut, Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania, Marcy Kaptur of Ohio, Jared Moskowitz of Florida, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington, and Tom Suozzi of New York, per CNN.
Two members, included Green, voted present. According to government records, Green has now become the 28th lawmaker in this nation’s history to be censured by the House.
After the vote was completed, Green was ordered to stand in the well of the chamber while the resolution was read aloud. He was soon joined by other Democrats who began singing “we shall overcome.”

“Try doing something.” “That, my friends, is how you stop fascism.”

A proper protest needs to make some waves. (I'm not talking looting the 7/11 or flipping cop cars. Settle down.)

"In September 2009, SC Rep Wilson interrupted a speech by U.S. President Barack Obama to a joint session of Congress, shouting, "You lie!"[3] The incident resulted in a reprimand by the House of Representatives.[4]"
kind of a black and white picture.

FFS, Democrats can't even be united in standing up to MAGA B.S.

Forget it and move on. But there should have been at least a dozen reps who shouted out during that speech.

That would have been a time to go all MTG on their asses.
But in a coherent and intelligent manner.
So maybe not all MTG.
