Yeah. It will be fun having democrats pass DC and Puerto Rico to statehood, Medicare for all. Mail in ballots nationwide. And much more fun. All I expect from republicans is to stop the madness. Giving our old equipment to Ukraine is not worth having a democratic house, senate and presidency.

An old argument...

No, they lost me. I plan to turn in my party card when I get a chance. I am done with them.

I will continue to vote conservative, though, noting if a Republican is a RINO or not.

The Republican party needs to get a swift kick in the rear.

No, because as we are finding out live, with rinos running around loose we don’t actually have the House, THEY do. Business as usual may have destroyed everything.

You should come to NYC if you think RINO=DEM. For 12 years we had RINO Bloomie. Oh he was an elitist slob who knew what was best, but we had very low crime, the cops did their job expertly, the schools actually taught stuff, the hospitals worked, the subways and busses were on time and not packed liked sardines, potholes got filled, garbage picked up, the streets were not crowded with homeless and druggie, kids could play in parks, Times Sq was safe for families. 10 years of Dems have brought NYC to Rome 501 AD.

Democrats are hooting and cat-calling, laughing while McCarthy nominates Jordan.

Then she is well suited to read speeches like the one last night. It was like watching a tennis match between funding Ukraine and funding Israel with no mention of funding our border.

Interesting, FR briefly crashed for me.

Anyway...Kevin McCarthy is giving the nomination speech for Jim Jordan.

Maybe a deal has been struck...

Round 3: Vote for Jim Jordan as Speaker - 2023-10-20 [LIVE]

My biggest fear is that they'll keep messing around and we'll end up with Hakim Jeffries or Nanzi (AGAIN!) as Speaker and The Country will be totally screwed!

“Is it for show or a serious endorsement?”

It is for political leverage against Jordan. The old quid pro quo thing.

I’m beginning to agree with you, as much as I hate to say it.
