Going back is having the Elected members of the only House we won being totally ignored and impotent.

The Huge Omnibus is shoved through and the Debt is going to ruin the future of the Country. Let’s fight now

It’s always about doing Joe’s bidding with McConnell and Lindsey…

One can see why they would be unhappy. Backroom deals are easy, votes needing over 200 are hard. They want the backroom secret deals.

Time to apply the rule to vacate to old Prune Face. Maybe he would take McDaniel with him.

In war planning and execution, the enemy always gets a vote.

Thank you for referencing that article AnthonySoprano. Please note that the following critique is directed at McConnell and not at you.

"SWAMP FIGHTING BACK: McConnell Says House Should Scrap ‘Motion to Vacate’ Rule, Claims It Makes Speaker’s Job ‘Impossible [??? emphasis added] (VIDEO)"


FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

Given that one of the main powers that the states have given to the peacetime feds to dictate domestic policy is to deliver the mail, most federal domestic policy now based on state powers that the corrupt feds have stolen from the states, contrary to what McConnel wants everybody to think concerning "difficulty" of Speaker's duties, members of the House could arguably take turns being Speaker on a daily basis without major problems imo.

Consider if this were a better world, then it would be the norm for citizens to lightheartedly question if the federal government has shut down if they receive their mail a few days late.

McCarthy is gone. It's now up to us Democratic and Republican Trump supporters to likewise kick ALL incumbent federal lawmakers up for reelection out of office, except for MTG, Gaetz & Company, (others?), by primarying them in 2024, then replace them with Trump supporting patriot lawmakers.

After all, lawmakers and executives continue to show that they do not have the patriotism and leadership skills necessary to find legislative support for effective remedies for unconstitutional government policies.

Constitution-savvy patriots can provide lists of patriots for Trump to choose from to endorse for 2024.

The only reason it makes it impossible is because the Speaker might get held accountable by the voters for ignoring the will of the people.

Ain’t that right Mitch?

We had a great personal relationship

Definitely some sort of same-sex relationship going on between McCarthy and McConnell ...

Used three times, successful once, and now its a problem because the sword of Damocles is hanging over the SOTH head all the time. Who can function under those conditions? Other than over 200 years of speakers frolicking Laughable!

This is one of the most serious, divisive moves by a handful of Republicans. They made a mess...hope their happy. And when we get down the road and we’re still doling out bucks, it just might dawn on the Repubs...that the Dems have the better hand.

Re: 32 - Gaetz is a big spender. He can’t hide from his 2018 votes on spending.

I’m interested in how FReepers who bashed McCarthy for “working with democrats” square the fact that the prissy little b-tch Gaetz voted with every single democrat in yesterday’s vote. So it’s only good to side with democrats when it serves Matt Gaetz? Do I have that correct?

There absolutely has to be a motion to vacate rule, but it should probably have a higher threshold than one member.
