“Jordan was the way, but hope Johnson does well!”

Johnson is more conservative judging by the data I’ve seen. Jordan seems like a good guy, but might be too nice. I hope Johnson is tough.

About stinkin’ time the RINOs climbed aboard the America First train.

I hope the lousy RINOs, who pulled the Not Voting for Jordan/_______, get their sorry @zzes primaried.

and what's to stop the Democrats from removing him if he does? now that Gaetz set the example, and it only takes 1 person ...

The Gaetz maneuver is a complicated thing, isn't it.

Jeffries just said Johnson is “a Baptist man”.

One member can file a motion to vacate, but it takes a majority of the House to remove the Speaker. As long as Johnson has the support of at least 217 Republicans, he can’t be deposed as Speaker.

Listening to this guy talk, It does not sound like he will be kicking ass and taking names. The minority leader just trashed everything MAGA, will he defend us? We’ll see

A MUST WATCH interview with Matt Gaetz and Steve Bannon if you want to understand what really went on behind the closed doors!
It was K McCarthy all the time who created trouble and refused to let go of the power!

Yes, Gaetz and others did well!
