Because he doesn’t have our enemies as target, more his mentors.

MTG supported McCarthy for SOH.

Six RINOs and all Democrats could make Liz Cheney Speaker. Be afraid.

You are correct!
The question I keep asking is how the RATS always seem to back radicals and the ONLY conservative to ever be Speaker was Neut.
Even then it was only 2 years.
Clearly the Deep State goes deeper than we ever imagined.
Crazy Liz gave us a clue.

All the Democrats need is 5 of the 12 Republicans who voted for gay marriage this month to allow Democrats to choose the new speaker.

McCarthy is not good, but we could end up with worse.

McCarthy is giving MTG her committee spots back and that’s where the money is. Of course she’s talking him up.

Try not to be stupid.

MTG is MAGA and Trump supporting.

So what if she’s talking up McCarthy?

The way you think, you’d have some scumbag RINO be Speaker who would shut down every investigation.

To people like you, you are what’s wrong with the GOP.

Some here think McCarthy cut a deal with the rats to get the House. I think that is probably true. He will be speaker and we will get very little. What the rats got for their end will become apparent. The could have defunded Garland’s witch hunt but it doesn’t look like they will that’s probably item number 1.

What you said is EXACTLY what MTG said this morning.

The House is required under the Constitution to elect a Speaker. Delaying indefinitely until you have secured 218 votes is not an option.

Yeah, but that's not going to happen until January 3, 2023.

There is a lot that McCarthy and the Republicans should be doing between now and then to avoid that debacle.

This, and the other article about rejecting 6 of 8 rule requests doesn't bode well for the idea that McCarthy is moving forward to placate his caucus in advance of the House roll-call vote on January 3.

Jim Jordan doesn’t want the job. He’s supporting McCarthy.

When votes no longer matter the next stage is bullets. We are living in the moment in between. The only question is how long that moment will last

It is great news. Remember when he blurted out about the Benghazi hearings.

It will be a republican version of Nancy and Chuck. We need someone with principles and integrity.

The Republicans need to elect a MAGA Speaker who will refuse to recognize the election of members by obviously corrupted elections. AK with ranked choice voting not in accordance with the AK legislature? Sorry, the election isn’t recognized as legitimate. Detroit where ballots showed up in the middle of the night? Sorry, redo the election. Delaware County, PA where the ballots took an hours long detour out of view of the election watchers? Sorry, redo the election. McCarthy won’t do any of that.

Amen!! Need someone with guts to do that very thing......Gaetz, MTG just a couple that come to mind......oh,oh, Bannon! lol. I’d love to see President Trump in the Speakers Chair though......McCarthy is Paul Ryan part deux

I imagine by the time the RATS are through, they’ll convince the GOOBERS to give Nanzi’s industrial strength gavel to Dizzie Miss Lizzie Cheney.

With a three or four seat majority how is anyone going to get enough votes for Speaker. Let’s just hope the GOP doesn’t screw this up.
