At a certain point after following politics closely, you move away from reacting to events and begin to focus on proactively predicting events. You start to develop a mental tuning fork that finds the frequency of DC compromise. In essence, you begin to assemble data and take notes on visible activity that indicates compromise.
Those notes then becomes predictive data and you keep it visible for later reference when trying to review motives and motivations for the DC schemes. Generally, if you keep close watch and take good notes, you will catch around 80% of the public datapoints that highlight the path of the political compromise. Things that make other things make sense.
The origin of MTG’s dark motives and her individual compromise originates in the timeline of her marital breakup, sexual exploits with former Speaker Kevin McCarthy, and eventually divorce. MTG, Lauren Boebert and Sean Hannity all have this origination timeline in common. I’m not sure what originates the Deep State compromise with Massie yet, when that initial touch took place, but I do know it goes back much further in the timeline of his congressional tenure.
Thomas Massie now joins with MTG in calling for the removal of Speaker Mike Johnson.
Let there be absolutely no doubt, removing Johnson right now is giving the speaker gavel to Democrats. This Machiavellian way to remove Donald Trump has always appeared to be the Deep State insurance policy.
When the U.S. Supreme Court reinstituted Donald Trump on the federal election ballots of the five leftist states who removed him, the high court noted that disqualifying a person from presidential office could only be done by congress, not by the individual states.
If the Democrats take control of the House, disqualifying Donald Trump from federal office will be the purpose of their first legislative act. They already hold the Senate. They will do this. Thomas Massie knows this.
So, ask yourself, who exactly is controlling the action of Thomas Massie; remember, he’s the former endorser of Ron DeSantis on behalf of the Sea Island multinationals (banks). Does the question answer itself?
Accept things as they are, not as you would prefer them to be.
When we *think* we have found the bottom of the corrupt and conniving state within the DC system… Pause, have a nice cup of coffee, then remind ourselves we’ll never find the bottom of this level of corruption; it’s ‘effen bottomless.
WASHINGTON DC – […] Massie’s decision was not well received during the meeting, according to several members in the room. And Republicans across the conference, including some members of the Freedom Caucus, quickly pushed back on the idea of booting Johnson, noting it would spark chaos without a clear successor — a repeat of the House’s nightmare in October.
[…] Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) said after Tuesday’s conference meeting that he still thinks they can avoid a vote to terminate Johnson’s speakership. But one GOP lawmaker, granted anonymity to speak candidly, was less optimistic: “Folks are very discouraged. … We are screwed.”
The simmering rebellion isn’t a total surprise after Johnson on Monday evening announced his plans to send four separate bills to the floor — on aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, plus a fourth with other miscellaneous provisions. That sparked pushback from Greene and some other conservatives, who have long opposed attempts to send further cash to Ukraine. And that opposition to Johnson could grow as the week goes on.
His first major hurdle on that package will be getting it through the Rules Committee, where hardliners of his conference hold three GOP seats. But he’s expected to succeed there; while conservatives could block the bill if they unite with Democrats on the panel, Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) said on Tuesday that he will vote for the rule, which sets the parameters of the House’s floor debate, in committee.
But it gets tougher from there. To even bring the package up on the floor, Johnson will need a majority of the House. And given conservative opposition he’s almost certainly going to need Democratic support. Typically, the minority party does not help on so-called rule votes, but some have signaled they’d make an exception for Ukraine aid. (read more)
We need to stick together right now and get Trump’s agenda moving. He thinks Mike Johnson will do the job. So be it.
Exactly!
That idea will go nowhere.
“Trump’s Johnson” will do a better job as Speaker IMHO.
Johnson folds like a pair of links, when he should grow a pair instead. This damned spending BS should have ended 6 administrations ago. He pisses me off.
That said, we’ll survive if Massie can get him into the washroom and administer a good, long, cold swirly.
Massie has been the “fly in the ointment” several times for TPTB who are apparently continuing in their quest to stop Trump’s plans for America. Hopefully he’ll be primaried next election and we’ll get a true MAGA believer in his place.
This was posted because it provides a motive, somewhat, for Massie’s behavior.
This is pure BS that X post is from April 2april 2024, geez congress is in recess
See post #9
"Do you know how rare it is for the GOP to control ALL THREE branches of gov't? So rare that you may never see it again, ESPECIALLY IF YOU P*SS IT AWAY?"
I agree. We don’t need this disagreement now.
Massie mentions no alternative...I believe Massie is totally compromised...the Dems have him by............
He thinks he's the friggin' Lone Ranger.
The way I look at it, President Trump is the captain of the ship. We are just part of the crew. I will trust President Trump until he starts accusing crew members of stealing his strawberries.
Right now.
President Trump called for Congressman Massie to be kicked out of the Republican Party back in 2020 when Massie opposed the first two trillion dollars worth of COVID spending on grounds it would trigger inflation.
Well here we are...
Johnson will be the Speaker.
Do u want to get something done or watch Massie pound on his chest and tell u how righteous he is?!?!
