There is NOTHING as aggressive as a Republican with no chance to pass something. Give ‘em the house, Senate and White House…. And they do nothing.
Big talker.
Funny how bold they are when they have zero chance of becoming law. But when they have a real chance like when they hold the house senate and presidency none of this happens
Zero, and they know it. Where were useful Bills when we had the House, Senate, and Presidency?
Scalise is FOS. He’s not tough. He’ll do whatever McCarthy tells him to do.
Repubs lost all leverage they had when they passed the omnibus monstrosity.
Exactly. They ate better off investigating everyone.
They need to multiple their idea of bold exponentially, then we’ll have something.
I’ll believe that the House Republicans are serious when they show me that they are serious. Not holding my breath on that, however.
The only thing “bold” the Republicans ever do is demonstrate time and again how they are allies of the Democrats.
We all know that is not going to happen in the Low-T GOP.
What the hell is he smoking? Didn’t he get the news that the republicrats ceded the House back to the demonrats a week ago?
Have they picked McCarthy as leader yet or is Scalise still challenging for the spot?
It could happen Biden’s back is against the wall with Hunter’s case starting to see daylight Biden has to make a deal or take the hit.
He knows he’s going down one way or another the MSM can’t save his dumb ass.
This is where establishment pubbies want to be…..enough power to grandstand and pretend, but not enough to actually do anything. They can always blame the senate or the WH for blocking their bold, brave actions.
The only power they have they’ve already surrendered. The purse strings.
With any backbone or brains they could have withheld funding for the IRS, FBI, DOJ or any other part of the gestapo.
They’re little more than american-cheese eating surrender monkeys.
Pathetic and disgusting.
I predict: Zero.
By all rights, biden should be a lame duck president for 2 years but McCarthy and the RINOs will give them everything they want. Then finally, since election fraud is being ignored, the Dems will win the WH, the Senate and the House in ‘24.
It’s over people.
Block the debt ceiling increase or STFU.
We got a vower!
Yes. they repealed Obamacare about 6 times when they held the House. Nothing happened of course, but it sounded good to the boobs.
On a one fifth minority vote, MAGA Republicans in both Houses can at least constitutionally demand a recorded yes/no vote on ANYTHING to make it easier for patriots to decide who needs to be primaried in 2024.
"Article I, Section 5, Clause 3: Each House shall keep a Journal of its Proceedings, and from time to time publish the same, excepting such Parts as may in their Judgment require Secrecy; and the Yeas and Nays [emphasis added] of the Members of either House on any question shall, at the Desire of one fifth of those Present, be entered on the Journal."
"§ 840. The restriction of calls of the yeas and nays [emphasis added] to one fifth is founded upon the necessity of preventing too frequent a recurrence to this mode of ascertaining the votes, at the mere caprice of an individual. A call consumes a great deal of time, and often embarrasses the just progress of beneficial measures. It is said to have been often used to excess in the congress under the confederation; and even under the present constitution it is notoriously used, as an occasional annoyance, by a dissatisfied minority, to retard the passage of measures, which are sanctioned by the approbation of a strong majority. The check, therefore, is not merely theoretical; and experience shows, that it has been resorted to, at once to admonish, and to control members, in this abuse of the public patience and the public indulgence." —Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2 (1833)
If no “MAGA” Republicans from 2022 are wiling to demand yes/no vote for everything then they ALL get primaried in 2024.
