Texas GOP Calls on Dade Phelan to Resign

Texas Scorecard ^ | 9/23/23 | Brandon Waltens

[CFW]

The impeachment of Paxton didn't turn out quite the way the Bush/Cheney/Romney/Rove wing of the GOP expected.

(BTW, I deleted a few words to make the excerpt fit under the 300 word limit but none of the deletions changed the resolution in any meaningful way).

Cowboys do get pissed when you start shootin’ your own cowboys out of the saddle. They figure it’s retarded. And it is.

[HYPOCRACY]

Now prosecute the POS.

[Carl Vehse]

"BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that should Speaker Dade Phelan fail to step down from the Speaker chair for this upcoming special session, the Republican representatives should vote to vacate the chair..."

This assumes that between now and then, medical science will perfect testicular and spinal transplants for the RINOcrats who elected Phelan as Speaker in the first place.

[PeterPrinciple]

WHEREAS, Speaker Dade Phelan appointed nine (9) Democrats to chair important legislative committees, in direct defiance of the wishes of Republican voters and the Legislative Priorities of the Republican Party of Texas; and

Is he a Bushie?

[ConservativeInPA]

America, and in this case Texas, has many enemies. A good percentage of those enemies are Republicans.

[Chad C. Mulligan]

Time for the antiquated Bush sycophants to wake up and smell the coffee. Texans are not putting up with you anymore. Go back to Maine and shut up.

[ridesthemiles]

I WOULD NEVER GIVE IMPORTANT POSITIONS to ENEMIES.

[Fai Mao]

“Is he a Bushie?”

IDK but he is beholden to democrats for his position.

[nopardons]

BTTT

[Presbyterian Reporter]

What I do not understand is why Phelan appointed 9 Democrats to chair committees when the GOP has a huge majority in the House.

[isthisnickcool]

They didn’t count on Tiny Buzbee. Lol.

[hopespringseternal]

In Texas a handful of republicans always vote with democrats to elect a squish Republican that effectively hands control of the Texas house to the democrats.

[CatOwner]

I sure hope the inability to have Paxton convicted gets back to Soros and strokes out the bastard.

[Ex-Con777]

That’s why this should have been done long ago. #DrunkDade only needed a handful of pub squishes to join with all of the democrats to get elected speaker. The left plays the long game in the dirtiest way.

The weak kneed RINOs will probably fall in line since this comes from the State Republican Party that controls the campaign funds for the upcoming primaries.

in direct defiance of the wishes of Republican voters and the Legislative Priorities of the Republican Party of Texas;

He's a RINO. So what?

[lewislynn]

America, and in this case Texas, has many enemies. A good percentage of those enemies are Republicans.

Often times infiltrators from the Democrat party.

[Fish Speaker]

Ohio had the same thing happen ... 22 Republicans voted with all of the Democrats to elect a squish Republican Speaker.

[rigelkentaurus]

Well, the issue will be who will be the replacement? Another fake Republican that conspires with the Rats like Phelan and Speakers before him, or, will we actually have a real Republican Speaker for the first time.
