I agree with the author that in hearings, Jordan is a great ‘griller’. Unfortunately, no Dems ever get cooked.
The Romans would recognize today’s Senate.

Yeah, but we’re not talking about the Senate are we? This is all the house’s business.
Faint echoes of Trey Gowdy continue to be heard.
Just elect a ____ speaker.
A handful got their butts hurt because their back-stabbing piece of Shite McCarthy got rightfully removed, just like he was promised would happen if he broke his word.
Line up and vote for Jordon or to hell with them all who don’t.
I would imagine that Jim Jordan is a tad bit disappointed Friday that his fellow Republicans finally decided to end his dream of becoming speaker after three attempts.

Baloney. Don’t count Jordan out yet.
This is all about Repubs posturing and jockeying for special favors as they try and align themselves for choice positions.
Would anyone like to take a guess on how many votes it took for McCarthy to get the SOH job?
It was a lot more than 3.
I disagree with the author. It wasn’t Gaetz who didn’t think this through, it was McCarthy. McCarthy sod us out, and thought there would be no consequence.
Speaker’s race reminds me of old Abbot and Costello skit, “Who’s on First”. You can watch it on YouTube.
This ridiculous article is a prime example how Conservative Inc is peopled by a large number of people who know almost nothing about politics but think they are the smartest people in the room.
Someone writes something that is immediately picked up and parroted by all the other social media drones in Conservative Inc. “Gaetz had a grudge” is an excellent example of that mindless drone behavior. All of them thinking they have some brilliant insight when what they actually are are overgrown parrots.
Do you understand how a Constitutional Republic works
See you have to actually win votes not just in the US House but also in the US Senate.
The US House doesn’t get to just declare someone impeached and remove them from office
Here is where Conservative Inc demonstrates their fundamental incompetence and drone like group think. Conservative Inc, as demonstrated by this statement quoted above, has fallen for this lie hook, line and sinker
This is the game that has been played in DC for over 2 decades now.. The US House GOP is told “oh you have to only pass bills that the Senate will vote for and the White House will sign”.
The result is the House GOP consistently passes hard Left Democrats Legislation to “get things done”. The Democrat get all the political benefits while the GOP gets all the blame from the voters. This game has got to stop being played by the GOP. This is a chance to do that.
This is a chance for the GOP to start actively using the power of the US House to say “You want something done Senate? You want something done White House? Here is what we passed. Either vote for it or reject it. We have done our job.”
WTH does your reply have to do with my post? Were you replying to someone else?
Who is Duke and shouldn’t this opinionated piece be a vanity post?
McCarthy broke his promises. Removing him was a good thing. It is also a good thing that the Rinos who voted against Jordan have exposed themselves. Whatever it takes to finally get a budget that Is balanced is fine by me. That problem would be at the top if not for fake elections which is problem #1.
Red State: Reliable GOPe drivel.
McCarthy is bad at speaking...
“it was clear that Gaetz had a personal grudge against McCarthy”
Anyone who DIDN’T have a personal grudge against McCarthy is a problem. When I’m lied to, it’s personal. When he never released all of the J6 videos to the public as promised, it was personal. When he extended financial power to Biden for 2 years, it’s personal. It was personal when he played footsie with Jeffries and basically ceded power to HJ. He nixed impeachment of traitors. Agaain ... personal.
Who thinks Gaetz should be OK with that (and more)?
Whomever is able to get through is already a disaster. We’re better off without for a while.
