They sure want to circle the wagons and protect their elite island.
Not so. The Constitution provides for removal of members.
Any republican that votes with the Democrats to expel Matt Gaetz is going to lose their primary and, if they survive the primary, they will lose the general election.
The age of RINOs is over.
Excellent point!
That’d be nice. But will never happen. We’re at 8 right now. It will take ten elections to get to 50 if we’re lucky. The country is split.
How can Gaetz be expelled for using a procedure that McCarthy himself agreed to when he begged for Gaetz’s vote in the first place?
How about Jordan calling for votes to boot rinos as soon as he is elected Speaker?
Actually if Gaetz is expelled, it would free him up for his gubernatorial campaign, as well as giving him valid issues to run on. Namely against the swamp.
“GOP leadership”
Att this point in history, that would be Trump and Gaetz.
The other guys are either gone or about to be. So who would they be talking about?
Matt Gaetz voted with every Democrat to essentially give them the majority, which makes him a RINO.
He cannot be trusted. His district can do better but timing is important.
We should have stayed with King George I tell you.
Surrender monkeys are coming out of the woodwork Sarah. Won't be long before we have to apologize for offending Hillary.
Your kidding right? Mitch and crew have been yapping their heads off.
So do plenty of RINO's and Freepers.
Go for it.
You realize of course that you don't have to actually be guilty of anything to be voted off the Island.

Remove McCarthy for old times sake!
What a pathetic comment.
Anyone surprised by this, if it’s true, doesn’t understand politics at all
That’s a knee slapper for sure.
McCarthy admitted that he was in a secret alliance with Pelosi. She was supposed to protect him from ouster with all the Democrat votes. (The one-member Motion to Vacate thing was supposed to be a scam on the Freedom Caucus.) The Democrats flipped and backed the Gaetz action, and this is why Pelosi was kicked out of her office.
McCarthy was the leader (or figurehead) of a political machine. This is why many of his enemies did not vote against him. This is why the ouster is a big deal. It is like voting out McConnell from the Senate leadership.
