“McCarthy only agreed to revert to what the rule had been prior to Pelosi.”
**********
And it led to a hot mess. Ipso facto it was a bad decision.
Got it
Your butt hurt ego is the center of your world. At which point there is zero reason for anyone to take you seriously any longer. Rational adults have no reason to waste time on these sort of ego driver temper tantrums.
but it was his conservative actions = Trump IS a conservative.
Many of those scumbags are low hanging fruit.
There is no way in hell that a Republican from Idaho, Alabama and Nebraska should be voting with democrats.
Their careers should be over today. Hang them on a giblet. /spit
Citing Fake news does nothing other than show that Mr. Gaetz is principled and has a strong backbone, unlike many here
The sound of RINO braying on FR. LOL.
Not really. The eight that voted mcCarthy out have all signed a letter saying they would accept expulsion from the conference, still stay as republicans, but have no committee assignments….. if the 25 voting against Jordan change their votes. They are putting the pressure on the moderates.
Establishment wants to blame the 8.
This is clearly about the $$$ The establishment wants continuing resolutions etc.
"So government remains effectively shut down?"
Military readiness aside, given that one of the very few powers that the drafters of the Constitution actually gave to federal government to dictate peacetime domestic policy is to run the US Mail Service, consider that the drafters had intended for intended for feds to operate in shutdown effectively 24/7, most federal domestic now wrongly based on stolen state powers.
"Article I, Section 8, Clause 7: To establish Post Offices and post Roads;"
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
From the congressional record, consider Rep. John Bingham's statement about the vast, 10th Amendment powers of the states to serve the people, Bingham a constitutional lawmaker:
”Simply this, that the care of the property, the liberty, and the life of the citizen, under the solemn sanction of an oath imposed by your Constitution, is in the States and not in the federal government [emphases added]. I have sought to effect no change in that respect in the Constitution of the country.” —John Bingham, Congressional. Globe. 1866, page 1292 (see top half of third column)
"From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]." —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Democratic and Republican Trump supporters need to support hopeful Trump 47 with new state and federal governments by primarying ALL incumbent lawmakers and executives up for reelection in 2024, except for MTG, Gaetz & Company, Jordan (and others?), replacing them with patriots who will support Trump's constitutionally limited power federal government agenda.
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.

As a side note to this post, consider that probably the main reason that we hear media complaints about the electoral college is the following.
The electoral college is now the only thing stopping the corrupt, constitutionally undefined political parties that have pirated control of state and federal governments from permanently establishing a puppet presidency that will unquestioningly sign unconstitutional taxing and spending bills into law.
It is the “moderates” that are the radicals.
Adult discourse is what this forum is for. Please remember that.
I was serious about the curses I wished on the 25. I don’t like to wish anything too horrible as it might come back on me.
“””Ipso facto it was a bad decision.”””
Definitely, a bad decision on McCarthy’s part. I guess McCarthy thought he could do whatever he wanted to do and a Motion to Vacate would never come back to bite him in the butt.
That was the rule fo 150 years until Queen Nancy took over. Get it?
You are an attention seeking RINO uniparty squish.
Nothing says I am a RINO like hating Gaetz. Let me guess you have TDS too? Meatball lover perhaps?
The braying you hear is the sound of your own voice.
I guess you could say he misunderestimated the chances of this happening. ;)
I doubt any Republican will vote for a Dem Speaker, but he rest assured, money “for” The Ukraine will flow.
Right, the R party is not a bunch of unified Nazi goose steppers like the Demonrats you seem to admire.
Jordan should keep running for the post. And the good citizens of the 25 weasel’s districts should light up their commo lines expressing their displeasure. If they’re no longer in office they can’t skim the lobbyist’s money should be pointed out to them.
