Thanks to the clone of McCarthy foisted on us by Matt Gaetz! Wow! Things are looking so much different now! s/
FISA works both ways…
Rep. Roy was deferential speaking of the new Speaker, Mike Johnson. Both Chip and Steve Bannon appreciated his Christian world view, and agreed that vSpeaker probably as the best he canhas a place in the R Party. I believe that is why Chip Roy said he thought Mike’s staff got to him.
That excuse is popping up everywhere in the last several days, I’ve noticed. On both sides and even neutral reporting. It was used in a story on Liz Magill, Penn University.
It is true that congressional staff lay out all the pieces, order them up for prioritizing and those for negotiating, etc.. Maybe it’s heavy lifting to do a deal with Democrats and staff get tired. Idk. But to end it, they bring the product to the Speaker and probably want a green light. I have to hope the Speaker is on a learning curve, or will bo Put on one!
Roy was seriously wanting us to phone our US House representatives to STOP IT as it goes to the floor next week and Congress wants to go home for the holidays! Chip wants to hammer this out. Fat chance
