If he doesn't have the votes I can't imagine anything shy of President Trump working to phones that would save his speakership.

Give him the boot, he has accomplished nothing.

"Give him the boot, he has accomplished nothing."

Sure, but he looked good doing nothing....

What's wrong with you people. You act like we own the Senate and Whitehouse.

Sometimes "nothing" is the best option...but I disagree...He got some of the Ukraine money outs there...and stopped what would be a catastrophic shutdown. And frankly, I don't like furloughed wortkers getting paid for doing absolutely nothing "while they're on vacation".

Exactly. He has accomplished nothing. He is Ryan’s chosen successor and it shows

When I see McCarthy I can’t help but think of California dem Gary Condit from years back. The only thing that really differentiates the two is that Frank Luntz hasn’t mysteriously gone missing.

There’s a reason there is no accountability in government, nobody wants to hold anyone accountable.

Personally I’d like to see him answer the substance of the complaint

Biden needs him.

Lindsey Graham said - he’s needed for the War Policy.

Graham’s actions are all about pushing Joe’s policies to become reality.

we’re sick of that.

And we go to the point where we are sick of that because of people like MCCarthy who made promises and didn’t keep them

8 Months in he still has not release the J6 tapes (PEOPLE ARE SITTING IN JAIL RIGHT NOW OVER THIS FRAUD!!!) He barely squeaked through an impeachment inquiry.

And he hasn’t brought up the vote on term limits.

What else did he promise to do and then forget? Myorkas is still there.

He has accomplished LITERALLY NOTHING. How much more time do you want to give him?

Are they going to replace him with Chip Roy? If not someone of this ilk, what is the point?

Wow! This has suddenly gotten to be a real and serious situation. This ain’t idle chit chat or grumbling in the shadows.

Yes. Who would be surprised to find Luntz has some rich new income stream.

The point? It's called accountability.

He became speaker on an agreed set of terms. Those terms could give him the boot if he didn’t hold true to his commitments, which he has certainly not.

That begs the question, who will replace him?

There is nothing conservative about contorting yourself in the name of Governance in order to increase the involvement of govennment in people’s lives.

He lied to his caucus. He didn’t tell them about his side deal. That was to get the CR passed.

There is no way he can remain Speaker after that deception of his own majority.
