Buck criticized McCarthy on Tuesday for going back on promises he made to members of his caucus when he was elected Speaker in January.
“I supported Kevin McCarthy in January because I thought he was the person best positioned to keep our promises to our constituents,” Buck said in a statement. “It’s clear that we need a principled Speaker who can keep his word not just to members of Congress, but to the American people.”
He should have KEPT HIS PROMISES. It’s that simple and AN EXAMPLE HAS BEEN SET.
Who on that list of eight Republicans would we support as the new Speaker?
Courageous heroes in my book. As a bonus we even have Pelosi thrown out of her congressional suite.
I’m not sure if any of them are conservative.
Not shocking who isn’t on the list - but who should be. Yeah MTG I’m talkin’ bout ya’ll...and others.
The country’s going to hell, McCarthy didn’t do what his promised and bent over for the Dems to shove the CR up his...throat - and all the so-called conservatives are pissing and moaning about Gaetz being a glory hog and showboat.
Tell you guys what: You go get something done that has even a half-chance of putting the country on a better path and then we’ll listen to your whining about Gaetz.
With Mace it is all about ambition. By creating chaos she thinks she can step in and gain a shotcut to the Speakership. And with losers like bowtie boy, she might be right.
I’m surprised Lauren Boebert is not on the list.
Needless to say, Mitt the Romney was not on that list.
All heroes to me and mine. Shocked that so many others who have been spewing lies about being for the people did not join in!
Mace during the Speaker vote in January 2023 called Gaetz a fraud & phony who was fund raising off the 15 votes for McCarthy.
Now she’s voting with Gaetz?
“These Republican malcontents don’t make any sense.”
What’s their SPECIFIC plan via legislation to reduce the debt, curb entitlement spending, etc?
Why not Boebert?
I get that MTG and KM have a “special” relationship so am not surprised about her. I am surprised about Boebert, though
This is why you need the next speaker to be from Texas. In order to win the White House, Republicans need Texas. Whoever the rep, if he or she is from Texas, there will be room for negotiations on policy.
Nancy Mace absolutely shocks me. I wanted her ousted last time around. Maybe she’s not the complete RINO stooge she appeared to be before.
8 idiots with no plan.
