As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier Wednesday, Jim Jordan lost a second bid for Speaker after 22 RINOs voted against him in a jealous fit.
This marked the second time Jordan failed to achieve the necessary votes to become Speaker thanks to Republicans not sticking together.
Their constituents responded to this betrayal by melting the phone lines and sending email messages demanding they reverse their illogical opposition to the Ohio conservative and ardent Biden opponent.
Some of these Jordan-hating RINOs instead took to social media to lash out at We the People for daring to criticize their stances. Notice a few played up their military service as a way to shield themselves from criticism.

Vote Harder! Suckers....
I looked up the definition of REMF in an online dictionary, and Simpson’s picture was next to it.
I don’t blame the Rino Uni Party. I say take the buy offs and go for it! The rank and file GOP membership won’t do anything other than bitch on social media. Its a win win for the Uni Party, they get to punish conservatives get their pay offs and don’t have to worry about reelection. Yep they played you guys and won.
Out with the Traitorous Twenty-Two.
Fellow Dumbasses,
If voting against the caucus’ choice is traitorous, then cast out the McCarthy and Scalise dissenters too.
The second round of voting for House Speaker ended with two more “Republicans” vowing to support the goals of the UniParty in Washington DC and retain alignment with Democrats. The mask dropping is quite remarkable, and perhaps the only good thing to come from this dynamic.
Here are the 22 professional Republicans who wish to see a Democrat House Speaker:
♦ Don Bacon: (202) 225-4155; @RepDonBacon (voted McCarthy)
♦ *Vern Buchanan: (202) 225-5015;@vern Buchanan (voted Donalds)
♦ Ken Buck: (202) 225-4676; @RepKenBuck (voted for Emmer)
♦ Lori Chavez-DeRemer: (202) 225-5711; @RepLCD (voted McCarthy)
♦ Anthony D’Esposito: (202) 225-5516; @anthonydespo (voted Zeldin)
♦ Mario Díaz-Balart: (202) 225-4211; @MarioDB (voted Scalise)
♦ Jake Ellzey: (202) 225-2002; @JakeEllzey (voted Garcia)
♦ *Drew Ferguson: (202) 225-5901; @RepDrewFerguson (voted Scalise)
♦ Andrew Garbarino: (202) 225-7896; @RepGarbarino (voted Zeldin)
♦ Carlos Giménez: (202) 225-2778; @RepCarlos (voted McCarthy)
♦ Tony Gonzales (TX): (202) 225-4511; @TonyGonzales4TX (voted Scalise)
♦ Kay Granger: (202) 225-5071; @RepKayGranger (voted Scalise)
♦ John James: (202) 225-4961; @repjames (voted for Moolenaar?)
♦ Mike Kelly (PA): (202) 225-5406; @MikeKellyPA (voted Bainer?)
♦ Jen Kiggans: (202) 225-4215; @JenKiggans (McCarthy)

♦ Steve Womack: (202) 225-4301; @rep_stevewomack (voted Scalise).
There is remarkable overlap amid those Republicans who previously voted to support Nancy Pelosi in her impeachment effort against President Trump. The UniParty is on display, and despite the frustration – Sunlight is the Best Disinfectant!
WASHINGTON DC – Opposition to Jim Jordan’s speakership bid is increasing, as the Ohio Republican again failed to get the 217 votes he needs to win the gavel.
After halting voting for nearly a day in hopes of securing more Republican votes, Jordan instead lost two more votes on the second ballot. The House then went into another recess, at Jordan’s request, before a possible third vote. The GOP is expected to hold a conference meeting Wednesday afternoon as it keeps searching for a way out of its speaker mess.
Jordan’s total number of Republican opponents reached 22 on the second round of voting. With the list of defectors growing, even after a significant delay, his chances at the gavel are looking virtually nonexistent.
Despite that outlook, Jordan spokesperson Russell Dye said in a statement after the vote: “We’re going to keep going.”
Jordan himself told reporters that he was unsure when a third ballot would take place but vowed that “we’ll keep talking to members, keep working on it.”
He flipped two prior opponents — Reps. Doug LaMalfa (R-Calif.) and Victoria Spartz (R-Ind.) — but still lost ground in the broader tally. GOP Reps. Vern Buchanan (Fla.), Drew Ferguson (Ga.), Mariannette Miller-Meeks (Iowa) and Pete Stauber (Minn.) all flipped against Jordan after previously backing him in the first ballot.
Several other Jordan opponents — Reps. Mike Kelly (Pa.) and John James (Mich.) — changed their votes to other alternative candidates. (read more)
Primary bait - bump for later....
Yes, people kept calling and saying they’d donate to a primary opponent. The nerve!
John James should be ASHAMED of himself!
ALL OF THESE CREEPS ARE INCOMPETENT MORONS!
CALL THEIR OFFICES!
2 of the 10 House impeachment traitors remain: Newhouse and Valadao.
“If voting against the caucus’ choice is traitorous...”
No, voting against your constituents’ choice is what is traitorous.
You’re assuming that national conservative/MAGA preferences are shared by 200+ individual constituencies.
Yep, because that’s what the voting trends show.
Need to find out who the big donors are and let the base know who the real puppet masters are.
Link doesn’t work. Very sad.
