I’m not believing anything coming from The Swill. What they are writing is intended to split the GOP apart. I’ll reserve judgement until the final deal is passed and signed.

Then I’ll ridicule McCarthy.

Today the House has app 20 members who I consider fighters. Add 2-3 Senators, and our side has app. 25 reliable members out of total of 535. That’s less that 5% of the congress reliably conservative since Reagan. The conservative movement has crashed and burned and people need to acknowledge this before things can be repaired.

So Bidenskyyy got McCarthy to bend over, huh? Damn GOOBers. The RINOs in Texas now want to impeach Paxton because he has a stranglehold on Bidenskyyy and his turd rollers.

It was said at the time, Bush wasn’t lying, he didn’t create any new taxes, he just raised the old ones.

McCarthy is definitely saying the right things. The question is will he DO the right thing or cave.

Sounds like Bush Sr. lying through his lips about “read my lips, no new taxes”

It is starting to look that way, isn’t it…..

The speaker vote. Didn’t Gaetz/Bobert get the ability to take out McCarthy?

Hold on folks, this is it in a nutshell, all Biden has to do is offer something that 3 useless republicans agree to. 3 flips the 5 majority. Every dem in the house will agree with whatever Biden proposes and there are dozens of bed wetting RINOs that will be happy to vote for anything to keep us from defaulting.
Its not like McCarthy would refuse to hold a vote to throw a fit. As soon as 3 worthless pussy Rs say they will sign on to the dems, it will be a tidle wave.
The ironic thing is the rinos who are mccarthy loyalist will be the first to abandon him to go along with the dems.
This is the whole story in a nutshell.
Evwrything else is created drama for political junkies to sell articles to make a paycheck.

Never overestimate the cowardice of the GOP.

Never attribute to cowardice that which can be attributed to STUPIDITY.

I really want to laugh about being right about Milquetoast McCarthy AGAIN ... and yet I can't.

If the Freedom Caucus doesn't IMMEDIATELY call for a floor vote to replace McCarthy then the country is lost and the Republican Party has gone the way of the Whigs.

“At least the DNC/CCP is honest.”

No. They’re filthy liars. But you’re right in the sense that they don’t hide their anti-faith, anti-family, anti-freedom agenda. They’re the party of abortion, perversion, and sexual abuse of children.
