It’s time for the Tea Party Caucus to bring forth the bill declaring the Speaker’s chair vacant. There’s no reason why the election among the remaining candidates was postponed. Stop letting the Lame Duck drive the agenda.

Yup, pull Mark Meadow’s trigger. A little discussed, but very important sub theme here is filing deadlines for primary challengers. If stealth RINOs are forced to vote for GOPe now their cover will be broken in time to run alternatives. If they can stall a we bit longer they’re home free this go around and can hope we’ll forget by ‘18. From the way this is going down there are obviously a lot more stealth RINOs than true Conservatives in the House, but relatively few who think they can be re-elected as open RINOs.

AGREE!!

I've spoken to Webster's and Jordan's offices. They are as numbed and shocked as we are. They have no idea what is going on, except to say this is caucus rules, or something.

I've asked if the Freedom Caucus has their legal eagles on this, to see if Bohehner can even do this, and Jordan's office said yes, they likely do.

This is an outrage!!

If you are on ANY social media....please tweet the above to Cong. Jim Jordan...

there's no majority in the caucus for ANY candidate.

Before you go all "dictionary" on me, Webster can no more garner a majority than could McCarthy.
