Reelect Nancy Pelosi.
Make her work with a Republican majority.

I’ve tried to tell you folks from day one...
McCarthy will sell out to get some Dems to cross over and the uniparty/globalist agenda will march on unabated.
To: HamiltonJay
He will offer some committee seats, hell, maybe even a Chair if he has to. Swalwell will end up back on Intel, too.

If members of the Freedom Caucus are not willing to vote for whomever wins the most votes among the Republican caucus, then they shouldn't have run as Republicans in the first place. In that case, they'd be perfectly justified in withholding their votes from a GOP speaker nominee who was not their preference.
But given that they did choose to run under the Republican brand, sabotaging the election of the caucus election for Speaker, and enabling the election of someone further to the left, is a betrayal of many of those who voted for them.

Put Donald J. Trump’s name into nomination for House Speaker and shake out all the GOP members who do not support President Trump.
To: ChicagoConservative27
I realize that many here think that McCarthy is not their first choice for Speaker. But which other Republican would likely win? After winning the House we’re going to turn over the leadership to the dems? Someone explain to me how that makes things better.

Good news for once.OK.
First ballot:
Pelosi 214
McCarthy 201
Some idiot 20.
Second ballot: Which is more likely: that Pelosi picks off 4 RINOs and becomes Speaker, OR that Some idiot picks up ALL of McCarthy's 201 votes and becomes Speaker?
I mean, seriously...

I don’t think it’s “good” news.
I don’t think it’s “bad” news.
It can be frightening if someone like Paul Ryan or similar is rammed into the Speakership.

Not being argumentative here, just want to see what are the possible alternatives that a conservative could support.
If not McCarthy ... who?

Swalwell will end up back on Intel, too. Don't kid yourself my friend, McCarthy has zero intentions of removing Swallowswell or Schiff-for-brains from Intel. Same for removing the dingbat muslim that married her brother from MN from whatever committee that thing is on.
