Breitbart ^ | 10/01/2023 | Pam Key

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that Rep. Matt Gaetz’s (R-FL) plans to come after his speakership will fail.

Anchor Margaret Brennan said, “I want to start, though, on the news from Congressman Matt Gaetz, who says he’s going to seek a motion to vacate. He’s going to try to oust you as speaker of the House.”

India elected a woman to lead nation 50 years ago.
United States is way behind in freedoms for women.

Private parts don’t matter. Maybe you should be in the DU.

You are so low IQ, you were replaced by a very low IQ H1-B worker.

This will be my last post to you since you are apparently unable to actually understand what I am saying and are becoming a waste of time. Your list is a list of Republicans, not all are conservatives (e.g. Ken Buck who is not only not a conservative, but did not lose and is actually still in the House) and those that lost didn’t necessarily lose because they were purists. Many on your list were hardly purists A big jump on your part leading to my comment about your ability to understand. The discussion was about purists but you ramble, equating conservative with purist. Additionally your position appears to be that because you think those that stand on principle (what you call purists) are out of favor we should not try to elect them and continue to elect Rinos and GOPs. That hasn’t done us well for decades. Someone mentioned that you were an Indian expat. I hope India has more fight in it when it comes to China than you do when it comes to democrats. Finally, try reading the posts. I never mentioned anything about you being Indian but you posted a screed to me about women’s rights and equality saying how far ahead of the US India is. I hardly think so considering India’s caste system. Try posting to those whose comments you are responding to.

Thanks. I agree with pretty much everything you said. But unless Gaetz has a replacement lined up for McCarthy, which looks very unlikely, he needs to find another angle to press. Empty threats are obviously futile, and can be dangerous. Worst case he gets booted from Congress, for example, for making basically empty threats.

Yes, it does appear that he’s winging it. Never attempt to change something without having something better to put in its place.

Gaetz is a bit a firebrand, at least by Republican standards. He stands out in the party because everyone else is so meek and timid. If he was a Democrat he’d barely be noticed. LOL

Whatever, he comes across as a bit of a loose cannon.
