Taxpayers?

Really?

Lets be honest here, you think the overwhelming majority of taxpayers wanted McCarthy removed to begin with???

I am no fan of McCarthy, but make no mistake there never was some huge groundswell out in America to vote out the speaker.

This is purely the move of 8 people, colluding with Democrats on their own accord.. this wasn’t initiated by some grass roots movement.

I won’t argue our government is corrupt and owned by large corporations and donors, but don’t think for one second that any of this happened because taxpayers wanted it.

This is purely a self inflicted wound created by a bunch of clowns.

We have crossed the RUBICON then Mr. Trump was indicted
No Fake news ever reporting on the large numbers of Americans who support Mr. Trump and are/were outraged at this Stalinist pogrom.

I am grateful for Mr. Gaetz having the cahones to speak up for us, the "little" people.

what was that saying back in the 70s' - Speaking truth to power - something like that

Doing the same thing over and over and over and expecting different results is the text book definition of insanity

Here is how the game has been played in DC for over 2 decades now.. The US House GOP is told “oh you have to only pass bills that the Senate will vote for and the White House will sign”.

The result is the House GOP consistently passes hard Left Democrats Legislation to “get things done”. The Democrat get all the political benefits while the GOP gets all the blame from the voters. This game has got to stop being played by the GOP. This is a chance to do that.

This is a chance for the GOP to start actively using the power of the US House to say “You want something done Senate? You want something done White House? Here is what we passed. Either vote for it or reject it. We have done our job.”
