Rep. Blackburn Should Run for House Speaker, Says ACU’s Daniel Schneider
Breitbart ^ | October 8, 2015 | Alex Swoyer

Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) should put her name in the race to become the next Speaker of the House, says the American Conservative Union’s executive director, Daniel Schneider.

“Blackburn is the most conservative woman in all of Congress. She has a lifetime ACU rating of 96 – that puts her in a solid ‘A’ camp. Year-in and year-out she is consistently been a solid performer,” Schneider said. “I would hope she would run,” Schneider told Breitbart News Thursday afternoon.

Schneider’s statements came Thursday, shortly after Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA)

I want Tom “the hammer” Delay.

The Dems railroaded our leader Tom, and he was totally exonerated. DA Earle practiced malpractice with malice.

Delay won at every level up to the Texas Supreme court.

Time to put Delay back in Congress.

You know Delay would have been better than Cryin Jonny Boner.

Delay would give the Dems migraine headacres
He fearless, and that is why Dems got rid of him

She’s too honest and holds others to a higher standard ... thus she is not suited to the disgusting establishment rule.

I just checked out a clip of her, and she seemed pretty darned good to me.

The generic 50yo white male congressman isn’t all that bright himself, and he’s terrible on illegal immigration—while she’s very strong on it.

The more I hear about this, the more convinced I am that they need to choose someone outside of Congress who would be insulated from the politics of it. I think someone like Allen West or Mike Levine would be perfect.

President Trump’s Cabinet

Jefferson Sessions as Vice President

Department of State, (return INS.) – Donald Rumsfeld
Department of Justice – Rep. Steve King
Department of Treasury, (includes former Homeland Security - Customs) – Carl Icahn (Offered and Accepted)
Department of War, (change the name back.) – Gen. James Mattis
Department of Interior, (includes the legitimate functions only of former Dept. of Transportation, Dept. of Homeland Security - Border Patrol, and Energy Departments) – Gov. Palin
Department of Health and Human Services (include the VA function.) – Dr. Ben Carson

Department of Labor and Commerce – ELIMINATE
Department of Homeland Security – ELIMINATE
Department of Education – ELIMINATE as proposed by The Donald, 9/23/25 at a Columbia, SC Town Hall with Sen. Tim Scott.
Department of Energy – ELIMINATE
Department of Housing and Urban Development – ELIMINATE
Department of Veterans Affairs - ELIMINATE
Department of Agriculture – ELIMINATE
Department of Transportation - ELIMINATE

This proposed model has the President directly managing seven subordinates which is optimal.

In non-cabinet level jobs

Sheriff Clarke should be FBI Director
Michelle Bachman as IRS Commissioner under Secretary Carl Icahn in Treasury
Admiral James A. “Ace” Lyons as Undersecretary of War - Navy Branch.
LTC Allen West as Undersecretary of War – Army Branch.
Lynnette “Diamond” Hardaway and Rochelle “Silk” Richardson would be great as President Trumps Co-Press Secretaries.

Marsha Blackburn, Speaker of the House
Ted Cruz as Senate Majority Leader.

Nobody wants the job. It has turned into a horrible job where the top guy can’t even get the group to pass anything. The last 4 years of the House has been one big waste of time. The Speaker’s primary job is to pass a budget once a year.......failure every year. A disgrace. Whoever takes the position needs to know how to run a budget and pass it every April....no excuses.

Great Idea! Either her, Louis Gohmert, Tom Price, Dan Webster, Ted Yoho, Walter Jones, Mark Meadows, etc..

Probably the best yet though: Articulate, Conservative, (Female) Drive-bys will have a harder time attacking her, Southern!!

Well, unfortunately, that would be Ryan.
