Just an FYI - “freeper” joesbucks is a Democrat Party operative.
The ONLY thing that MTG can succeed at doing, with a bare 5 vote GOP majority in the House, is again demonstrate how the Dims can exploit a divided GOP, especially with that mere 5 vote majority. MTG is making a “name” for herself, but she is only hurting the GOP.
The democrats never abolished the filibuster for Presidential appointments - until they did. When Reid unilaterally abolished the filibuster for district and appellate court judicial appointments, the only reason he didn’t abolish the filibuster for Supreme Court appointments was because there were no vacancies at the time.
From 2021 to 2023, lots of democrats called for the abolishment of legislative filibusters. The only reason they didn’t was because it bit them in the butt when Reid abolished the filibuster for Presidential appointments in 2013, Republicans retook the Senate a few months later and in 2016 Trump was elected and Republican controlled both houses of Congress.
Trump praises MTG and claims she is ‘very respected in Congress’ Donald Trump praised Marjorie Taylor Greene during a rally in South Carolina on Friday (23 February), describing the controversial US Representative as a “good person”. “She has been with me for so long, in good times and bad,” the former president said. “If times are good, she will call me up twice. She is a fantastic person, a very smart person and very respected in Congress.” Mr Trump went on to claim that “a lot of people don’t know how respected” MTG is.
Some of those stooge judges were appointed by DJT. Or are they supposed to nullify the law and rule based on politics?
How’s life treating you? I’ve been really cranky lately, got the Tax Season Blues.
LOLOL!
en banc, 8 Democrat Party stooges [and your team mates], versus 6 actual judges.

Judge Gregory wrote the opinion, in which Chief Judge Diaz, Judge King, Judge Wynn, Judge Thacker, Judge Harris, Judge Heytens, and Judge Benjamin joined.

Gee, I guess that Dubya stooge John Roberts was right that politics plays no part in the decisions of the federal kangaroo courts...
I know this decision warms the cockles of your Democrat Party operative heart, joes.
True. It also shows that they can't play the long game. It takes a lot of time and effort and patience to get anything done in politics. If you have to go back to the drawing board all the time, you never get anywhere.
Funny. I don’t agree with their decision. I guess I won’t be getting this weeks paycheck.
How is your granddaughter doing? Well, I hope! I put a prayer up for her occasionally when I see your screen name scroll by.
It was like T-Ball.
I put it up there, and you delivered the weakest sauce imaginable: "Funny. I don’t agree with their decision.", when you could have gone Donny Donowitz on the partisan pieces of garbage.
I guess that when it comes to keeping the cash flow, discretion is the better part of valour.
Re: 108 - LOL.
That’s Fury to you.
I simply don’t agree with their decision.
Where I told you....Besides abandoning Trump on this Johnson issue, tell us what else you don’t like about Trump.
Too bad you are a coward and never said why you oppose President Trump.
You do you, Democrat Party operative.
Pres Trump is the presumptive nominee and therefore leader of the party.
That should be the only necessary answer.
If one needs reasons, I’m certain that they were covered in the replies before this reply.
This is already detrimental in detracting Whatley from more important work.
He may not be a Democrat but votes like one.
Yes, a real horror movie we'd be forced to live in. Note how they've attained half of those travesties already. And the longer we remain arguing over details the more they're mowing us over. What do we have?
Mike Johnson presented himself as a warrior but when pressured by the strong he squished without even getting any concession for border control...AND giving billions of our dollars to Hamas terrorists. While this alone is failure enough to oust him I agree with those that say he must be retained until post-election. After that I hope he enjoys whatever post-Congress consultant/lobbyist/fake job package they're giving him. But he's got to go with the Scarlet Letter of constituant betrayal upon him after his role has expired.
Meanwhile we have to take these elections with the utmost seriousness because the Evil People are not constrained by morality, ethics, rules or fair play. The Democrats have allowed themselves to be infected by the furthest Left, patently insane branch of their party that strives to replace our vast bounty of God-given energy sources with a fairy tale of "renewables" (replete with non-recyclable waste and needless animal slaughter), our proven successful model of commerce with an "equity" (communist) system that's not only rained ruin wherever it arose but took multiple millions of lives along with it, and supplant what's left of our justice system with political operatives applying power for the advancement of their masters' agenda (hence President Trump's current dilemma).
The Democrat Party left God behind years ago and worship power for power's sake. It's no coincidence their largest lobby, the teachers' unions, annual conference now has drag queens, displays of pro-homosexuality books and seminars on how best to "nurture transgender children away from misunderstanding parents".
Our nation's once proud military is no longer fit to defend it, having weeded out it's patriots and independent thinkers through mandatory vaccine dictates and putting ridiculous "woke" ideology over common-sense combat readiness. It's no joke that Elon Musk, Richard Branson and others have caught up with and surpassed NASA - once the jewel of American achievement - because we've crippled it with over-regulation, budgetary waste compounded with favorable kick-backs and worst of all: the hiring of lesser qualified people over the best and brightest to assuage quotas for those who value skin color over competency.
I don't know about you but that seems very racist to me. Boys pretending to be girls ruining girls' sports, not knowing what you'll find in a public restroom anymore, weirdos expecting you to use their preferred pronouns...this is Last Days stuff and we ALL have to cooperate in order to fight against it. If we don't the Borg will eventually knock your door down and say "You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile".
We've got to be BETTER than the demons across the aisle, going back to reasoned and rational compromises where both parties come out with something good to present to their constituents. This current all-or-nothing approach is clearly in favor of the soul-less Democrats and only benefits their financial backers and the "Deep State" while guys like Mike Johnson know their butts hurts a lot after dropping the soap.
"Great NEA conference; LOVED the drag queens.
See you next year!"
What you fail to understand is that the Speaker is not a dictator. That’s the simple solution that appeals to simple minds, but it’s not the real world.
