And Ryan isn’t part of the swamp? He’s taken more money from the Koch Brothers than all the members of the Freedom Caucus combined: $130,000 to $55,000.

And 30-some members of the House made Ryan Speaker? I don’t think so...

The FC absolutely had the power to stop Ryan when he first ran for Speaker. He said he’d refuse the Speakership unless the FC backed him, and they gave him a super-majority.
