That hag had dirt on everybody that is why she was able to stay as the house speaker while screwing the nation.

That's a lofty yet untenable position.

The freedom caucus simply doesn't have the numbers.

2022 ensured that that position would be clear.

And you can thank McConnel.

If the GOP quickly begins doing things that impress the majority of Americans, the House can grow it's GOP majority by XX number of seats, in 13 months.

Right now, it looks like a few Republicans helped Democrats eject a Republican Speaker. That's how the MSM will be portraying it until Repubs appoint a new Speaker...hopefully one who's a pit-bull.

I hear McCarthy let Nancy Pelosi keep the Speaker's office. The new Temp Speaker has given Nancy until Wednesday to vacate it. (Could be a rumor. Fog of war thing.)

If Pelosi had agreed to rules of easy-peazy removal like McCarthy did, would she had been replaced too?

Called it...

Once again conservatives take another loss because their inability to see we are in a class war masquerading as a cultural war. McCarthy was never on your side,. He's on the side of the military industrial complex, and big business. Just like 99% of all other Republican and 100% of democrats.

You all have been disenfranchised you just don't see it yet...

The sooner more people wake up to the fact that voting isn't going to fix the problems we have in DC, the sooner we can start to fix this. We need to give the Ron Paul's and Robert Kennedy's a party to engage with the largest voting block in the country.

The people who don't vote.

The moderates.

The 160+ million people who want nothing to do with either political party.

It's either that or a revolution, because both sides are currently stoking a civil war between political factions to deflect people's attention away from the fact both political parties are corrupt to the core.

Should be us against them, but it's you against me.

Except for the killing of Osama Bin Laden, Democrats were against military actions for decades, until their leader BIDEN told them supporting WAR is good.

Maybe the Cocaine was meant for Barack's visit.

Is a lot of democrats that has been using the white house and congress as their permanent resident, these days, I guess they think they own them for life.

I don't think it's a rumor as I've seen many reports on it now. Pelosi had a secret office with McCarthy.....


To your point, are we confident in the integrity of the voting machines and laws now?


I am not.

The independent percentage is flirting with record highs.

The last place either party wants to be heading into the election is hyper division.

We live in a nation of goldfish memory, it’s just a bad play.

Bull#. The people like me who normally don’t give a rat’s ass about politics are tired of politics as usual. McCarthy assumed that he would never be voted out and decided to “F” around. Guess he found out. I’m more inclined to vote straight republican ticket now even though I totally disagree with the religious right and hard core social conservatives.

Good for you. I’m sick of the silly little girls who only care about which politicians are cute or funny or agree with all of the retarded ideas.
McCarthy is a cheating lying POS. He went back on all his agreements and just couldn’t fathom a reality where he’s held to account. He figured that being FOS was just funny and cute and part of his royal countenance.
If Gaetz does nothing but illustrate that a lying little SOB can be sh!tcanned, good for him.
All McCarthy did was to suck hind teat and give away the 59th straight CR. No actual budget, no manning up and saying “shut it down until people stop being liars and cheats and retarded infants”.
F that guy. Just another Boehner Ryan Romney Graham they we don’t need. I’ll take 1 Gaetz over 1000 McCarthy ho’s.
Of course the dems are beside themselves and hooting and whining. They don’t get their Ho no mo.

The problem GOP has now is that they've splintered. They no longer have a majority, at least they don't act like it.

The GOP had 221, I believe, the Dems had 209. But now the HFC has pretty much broken off, and that's 21 or 22 people that are no longer unified with the GOP, almost like a third party.

That means there are now 209 Dems, 200 Repubs and 21 HFC.

It's gonna be rough for the GOP to make a new leader with such numbers.

Yeah, of course we don’t need anybody fighting for the constitution or democratic ideals.
The 15-20 conservatives left should definitely never fight back against the dem and rino progressives.
We’ll have a great one-party corrupted legal and judicial system in no time.
It’s great that the democrats and RINOs do absolutely nothing but socialism and corruption. You should definitely fight against anybody who’s trying to defeat that.

Yeah, “splintered” now means “there’s anybody left who won’t go along with ignoring the constitution”.
Of course there’s no room for anybody with that opinion.
Only room for “ditch the constitution and rule of law if it helps dems progressives & socialists”.

Ah yes, the great conservative rebuttal to the powers that be.

I’ve heard that one before, with Bush and Trump. How’d that work out? Let’s go quantify the percentage of debt under those two admins we hold today.

33tn total now, wonder what percentage is from those two admins. We could always say “but congress is the purse”. Okay, who had congress the most since 2000?

In before rhino excuse… good point, again, why should I put all my trust in a party that has proven they can’t make good on their goals? I’m supposed to feel so desperate that I resort to them to counter liberals?

No thanks. They both suck. The numbers don’t add up, the right doesn’t have the pedestal they think they do. Yea, the left is trash… but the right has had countless times to prove they’re better, but they’re not.

Wow, somebody who’s not embarrassed to still mouth-breathe “Russia Russia Russia Putin Putin”.

And “MOAR Ukraine $ !!!” When we hit a trillion, will you question anything about it ? No, I’m sure.

Gaetz has probably achieved 1,000,000 times you.
Keep calling him “a big dumby”…. By all means.

I need somebody to laugh at today.

I am not.

The Liberal Media makes it seem like Nancy is supposed to be in that office because she's a former Speaker of the House.

Source: www.nbcnews.com...

Comcast-owned NBC/MSNBC are evil. Candidate Trump says the 2025 thru 2029 "season of retribution" is going to be very tough for them.

There is currently no debt ceiling because former Speaker McCarthy suspended the limit until 2025 (foolishly). So Biden can borrow an unlimited amount of money.

It went up $275 billion in ONE DAY.
$442 billion in just two weeks.

When you consider how many Republicans swing far left now days, this doesn't bode well for the near or far future.

Another gem:

Did you know that McCarthy let Pelosi keep the Speakers office?

It makes me believe that she was running things and not Kevin McCarthy.

I mean it makes sense since every single thing the White House asked for the House Republicans gave them.

Mere hours after taking over as speaker pro tempore with the ouster of Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) on Tuesday, Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-NC) ordered former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to vacate her office by Wednesday.

“Please vacate the space tomorrow, the room will be re-keyed,” an email sent to Pelosi’s office viewed by Politico stated. The email added that the room will be used “for speaker office use.”

Pelosi is currently using a hideaway office, which only a handful of members receive. Given that she is speaker emerita, McCarthy allowed Pelosi to occupy the space. McHenry, who is a McCarthy ally, is clearly less keen on it.

Two words: 9/11 and COVID

According to Fox News Trump has been contacted about becoming Speaker.

It is being seriously discussed.


Oh my oh my oh my!
