GOP Drama: ‘Furious’ Margorie Taylor Greene Throws ‘Friend’ Matt Gaetz Under the Bus — ‘He Supported Paul Ryan’
Breitbart ^ | 01/03/2023 | HANNAH BLEAU

Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) went off on some of her Republican colleagues on Tuesday as the contentious speakership vote is underway, telling reporters that some of her Freedom Caucus colleagues and “supposed friends” have been demanding positions for themselves and acting hypocritically.

“We have been negotiating talking, debating back and forth in our conference, trying to come to a really good rules package,” she said, explaining that she witnessed a very different story in the conference meeting, where she discovered that “several members, three, in fact,” went “last night and were demanding positions for themselves, demanding gavel positions, demanding subcommittees, demanding for people to be taken off committees and people to be put on committees.

MTG has burned bridges to her constituents.

A Freeper who I can’t recall posted that MTG was backing McCarthy because she wanted to be a committee chair. I now agree with this.

Hee tantrum signals defeat for McCarthy and for her. Sad to see her fall as she showed a real fighting spirit. Maybe she’ll have a bolt of wisdom catharsis. Pray it be so.

“...kabuki theater. It’s the public storyline they want us to see.”

Very true. Lots of smoke and fire but don’t pull that curtain back.

I did a contract gig for a state government one time and I was in the Gov. office and the Congress building. And the stuff that went on there would make a good book. Nobody notices the computer guy...:) So I can imagine what the Washington crowd gets up to.

>>20 can’t run the House they can only obstruct it.>>

What is wrong with obstructing it?

The Swamp is all about getting things done. Conservatism is NOT getting things done. Government should be kept out of life and that means don’t get things done, and indeed, undo some things done.

Chaos is good when stability is the Swamp.

You lost me? The theory I posted about this being a game with Jordan as the true nominee is off Truth Social.

If she’s for real in her posts, yeah I’m done with her. She knows rinos and supporting one for speaker tells me all I need to know. And frankly, the shoe prints on my back from these jackasses have started overlapping.

Yeah, it it is a lot.
But he needs 218 to win the Prize.
After 3 votes he is still short.
However, McCarthy can be proud
as he made history today.
1st time in 100 years a nominee for Speaker lost 1st vote.
Think the next record is 9 votes which happened @ mid 1800’s
Go Kevin Go. Break that record too.

Then McCarthy should have worked out the details of the Rules Package
months instead of waiting until his head was in the chopping block.
Be proud. Your Buddy made history today.

So today I heard a clip of a House rep, from SDak(SDak sure does have some really sh*tty politicians) who said he’s mad that 10% of the Republicans in the House are holding up 90%.

I guess he skipped the class where it’s about individual rights, not a collective to make it seem like things are getting done when they’re not, and he was mad that the 10% were actually doing what their constituents wanted.

This whole thing is further evidence that McCarthy is nothing but a UNIPARTY shill, who will accomplish nothing.

Marjorie was calling out the idiots making fools of themselves. You need to know that we’re big fans of Marjorie Taylor green here. Perhaps you didn’t realize that.
