More than one author is the tell-tale sign that this issue is REALLY important to the media Oligarchy.
The motion to vacate is nothing more that allowing the House to have the ability to choose another speaker during the session or during the congress if it feels the need to.
But the Ruling Oligarchy does not like checks to its power (they see them as “guns to their head”)
Since CNN is advocating against this (and their love of the Republicans), I think it is a great idea!
You are not there to govern. You are there to SERVE!
It takes 4 journalism majors who are dumb as a box of rocks to understand what a “motion to vacate” is.
It is similar to the UK’s parlimentary rules where a vote of no confidence can be taken at any time. And since I have no confidence in McCarthy, I think it is a great idea. Unless we get racist Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) in his place. :(
Govern properly? I thought you were only 1 half of 1 third. That talking point seems to have disappeared. Now it’s on you to “govern properly”. If the people didn’t want chaos then you would have a stronger mandate. Let’s try a little chaos, governing properly leads to trillion dollar deficits, prioritizing gay marriage, sending jobs overseas, uncontrolled immigration and unlimited money to Ukraine. The more I think of it, maybe a little chaos is called for.
a tool that should be used by the right flank to unstring McCarthy’s refusal to lead the conference and effectively govern by forcing him to represent his constituents.

They work for US
Not the other way around.
Typical WEFpedoprattle. Your job in Congress is not to govern. It is to represent the citizens of your district. And yes, hold government accountable to the people you represent. This asshat needs to be primaried out, stat!
Republicans are like a bunch of children on the playground arguing over whether to use a 30-inch circle or a 32-inch circle to play a game of marbles. In the meantime...a Democrat gang from another school, armed with rocks and baseball bats, is sneaking up behind the Pubbies...getting ready to bash heads and steal lunch money.
The problem with McCarthy is that he has been more focused over the past 6-12 months on securing HIS speakership than getting conservative candidates to win elections. If he won another 10-15 seats this probably wouldn’t be happening.
