I pray it goes on as long as it needs to go in order to prevent the uniparty from controlling Congress with a McConnell/McCarthy tag-team.

Fig leaf.

If McCarthy takes office, it is a scam.

His brother Joe Isuzu says his word is his bond.

2024 is too important

2020 was supposed to be important and the RINO pukes sandbagged the whole thing.

And then 2022 was supposed to be important and the RINO pukes sandbagged the whole thing.

I'm not going to pretend the R brand is important enough to continue voting for. They sure as hell aren't interested in saving America.

Someone needs to tell McCarthy and his apologists that obtaining the speakership is a deliberative process, not a coronation.

It will be the first time the liberal GOP establishment has ever caved to the conservatives of the party and that is causing great consternation and annoyance to them and the FR GOPE shills.

Anything to do with legislation is DOA as he can’t pass anything since McConnell gave away the Senate and Biden sits in the White House.

At this stage of the game it’s not about what they can pass, but what they can PREVENT from being passed. If all this House does over the next two years is prevent abominations like the recent omnibus bill from getting through, then they will have done their job. The problem is that Kevin McCarthy can’t be trusted because he is likely to cave to dems and RINOs, as he has in the past. THAT is why the holdouts are performing an important and necessary service in trying to at the very least nail down some solid commitments from McCarthy, if not replace him outright.

Preventing more "climate change infrastructure" or "Ukraine infrastructure" nonsense from becoming law is worth doing. Trading RINO pork barrel spending for Dem pork barrel spending is insane.

Doesn’t matter about a border bill

Even if we had a border wall Mayorkas would let them all in anyway. Biden is going to the border to announce a new "comprehensive immigration" swindle with a "pathway to citizenship." Don't fall into the trap.

It’s time for the party to run someone else.

12 years = 6 terms in the house. Each term is two years.

and Yes

Thanks for the clarification.

It’s unconstitutional - see Powell v McCormack 395 U.S. 486 (1969).

If they meet the requirements and election, they cannot be denied a seat.

They talk about all the money he raised

Both he and China Mitch withheld money from good Conservative candidates so they wouldn’t get elected.

Both deep state traitors.

If Kevin would have financed the good candidates there would be a different ratio.

Prolly 228 GOP Reps

So he could have been elected easily.

But no...too clever for his own good.

He would be a weak soft speaker.

Makes me suck to gear him speak.

No issues promised, just empty promises with no power.
