"There's more going on inside the Republican Party over the House speaker fight than many Americans understand."

It's a typical dysfunctional RINO-circlefest in a well-lubricated sleeping bag.

Better than the alternative of passing lousy legislation.

Hilarious that they include Nancy Mace in the “hard right” group. I believe she is pro-abortion. Her constituency is about 50/50, so she straddles a fence most of the time.

In her recent hard right vote, she said she did it because she was tired of being lied to by McCarthy.

At some point a divorce seems inevitable. There will be a MAGA party and the Republican party will be a hollow shell.

Democrats have divisions, but it seems like whenever they really need to, they circle the wagons. My speculation as to why Republicans can’t do the same thing is because they’re not as ideologically committed to advancing conservatism as Democrats are with socialism.

Difficult for me to argue with this article's basic theme...“Follow the money” should probably replace “E Pluribus Unum” in the stinking morass that has become American politics over many years.

Why didn’t the eight geniuses who started this understand that these divisions would make it impossible to put Humpty back together again?
1) Stupid?
2) Lacking situational awareness and foresight?
3) Vindictive/angry?
4) ambitious?
5) Yes.

What’s really happening is that the uniparty* is being exposed for what it is.

*AKA deep state

Occam's Razor:

This just the latest manifestation of the GOPe war with Trump supporters in Congress. The Never Trumpers would rather lose 2024 across the board than see the Donald return to power.

I wondered the other day, in the thick of the Jim Jordan voting, if perhaps the Deep State didn’t want someone like Jordan because they may already know that the Speaker could realistically end up as President sometime soon.

My humble opinion.

Democrats…..damn near everything they want or would like to accomplish requires money. Taxpayer money. And a lot of it. Regardless of where it goes, wasteful programs that get no results for kickbacks, doling out to friends for some kickbacks, non-profits for some kickbacks, hiring their family members, or ‘humanitarian aid’ for kickbacks

Conservatives….about 99% of what they want costs NOTHING. They don’t mind paying taxes for the essentials: cops, firefighters, schools(to some extent), and a few other things, BUT after that they just want to be left alone. Let me keep the money I earn so I can live my life and take care of my family. No foreign interventions. No ridiculous foreign aid packages promoting BS so they can launder money.

Republican/RINOs….talk like Conservatives in public. Support everything the democrats want in private. Love taking care of their donors for the campaign cash and kickbacks. Love taking advantage of insider information so they can hook up their donors and buddies back home for kickbacks. Love the fact that they don’t experience the consequences of their collusion with democrats. IE…their support of open borders to appease their buddies in construction, farming and manufacturing. None of these Republicans live near the neighborhoods that become favelas. They aren’t the ones that are forced to move due to the invasion. Ergo, no different than hypocritical Democrats.

I love the dysfunction that has been exposed and shows the need for revolutionary change.

Enough trying to pretend like we are voting to ‘conserve’ anything.
It’s not working.

Let it all rot until the real revolt begins.

The initial Jordan vote was revealing: all the die-hard opposition came from RINOs on the appropriations and defense committees, almost all of whom had voted themselves earmarks.

They've become addicted to the out of control deficit spending and opportunity for kickbacks and retiring "upwards" into multi-million dollar K-Street sinecures.

The republican party has been infiltrated. Dis-function is the step before being turned completely evil.
