The far right has been feuding with McCarthy for weeks. Here’s how it’s spiraling into a shutdown

Call your congressman and demand no CR, no omnibus, no funding for Ukraine, only appropriations bill using regular order and with massive cuts. Anything resembling the past year’s spending is just a continuation of Pelosi-Biden spending and programs destroying America. A vote for a CR is a vote for Pelosi-Biden.

Ever see any media outlet use the descriptive term, “far left”?

[Obadiah]

Or, “hard-line liberals”?

[eyeamok]

Remember, the Chicago Tribune has always believed anyone to the right of Joe Stalin was and is a ultra right wing hardliner.

NO CR, BUILD THE WALL, SHUT IT ALL DOWN UNTIL THE WALL IS FINISHED.

It appears that these “short term funding plans” are just a way to slip all sorts of unrelated LONG TERM nonsense into law. I’m against that pretty strongly.

[MNJohnnie]

Hmm so demanding clean transparent Government is now “far right”?

[ConservativeInPA]

Ever see any media outlet use the descriptive term, “far left”?

My Little Orphan Annie decoder ring says ‘moderate’ means ‘far left’.

[who knows what evil?]

McCarthy speaking now...he has a little story for the American people...same old, same old. Where’s my badly-stained and overused barf bucket???

[Chuckster]

My rep is a far left Democrat d:(

My handy-dandy Newspeak media translation guide for political ideology labels:

Media labels vs. Reality:
Blue = Red
Socialist/Left-wing = Stalinist
Liberal = Marxist
Moderate/(Centrist) = Socialist
Conservative = Liberal
Far-Right = Moderate <-—————Right here
Ultraright/Racist/Bigot = Conservative Mainstream

“Ever see any media outlet use the descriptive term, “far left”?”

“Or, “hard-line liberals”?”

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Or blame the Left for a government shutdown?

Or CREDIT the Right for a government shutdown?

[fieldmarshaldj]

Not that she got the majority of the vote. You guys gotta get rid of that “install the leftist loser” fix in Alaska.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Victim politics.

McCarthy needs to be removed as Speaker. He had his chance, but he didn’t impeach Mayorkas “on day one” like he promised, didn’t release the J6 videos, and is dragging his feet on everything we all want. Time to go. I have a suggestion for his replacement - Jim Jordan. (Hey, a guy can dream, right?)

[Leaning Right]

No worries, Deep State. There’ll be a bit of fussing. Then a few GOPe House members will cross over and vote with the Democrats. The continuing resolution will pass.

McCarthy will make a sad face in public, and a happy one in private.
Same goes in the Senate. And our country’s drive right off a cliff will continue.

[rktman]

Did they leave out “extremists”?

[FlingWingFlyer]

What's up with the J6 FIBBY "posse"? Yesterday, a bunch of pimply faced, teenaged INSURRECTIONISTS "STORMED" Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy's office. Where the hell is all the news coverage? Where's the RAT NAMECALLING. Sorry folks, I don't see any difference between this and the FIBBY J6 Fiasco. Let our people go! They are Patriotic Americans. They should not be in prison.

[Iron Munro]

FAR RIGHT = Honest, moral, patriotic people with ethics who believe in the US Constitution, personal independence and personal responsibility.

[Methos]

My rep is a far left wing douche of a man that can’t string two sentences together(like biden) without screwing it up.He dresses like a thug outta Compton and I did not vote for this person. Can you guess who I am talking about ?
