Why can’t it be Jim Jordan and let’s move on?

In a way it’s just spite. Scalise will be the compromise, but he will be very little different than McCarthy. Same thing happened when Boehner was ditched for Ryan; not much difference, but Boehner was humiliated.

Jordan said a while back he didn’t want the job and was supporting McCarthy.

“We also note that the statement fails completely to address the issue of leadership working to defeat conservatives in open primaries”

This. This this this this this.

The republicans oppose us, and then they get surprised when we oppose them. The 11th commandment has never held when it comes to someone from the GOP Establishment smearing good conservatives, but yet its reasonable to think that these statements will have republicans screaming from the mountain tops that the 11th commandment is being violated by us conservatives and all we’re actually doing is pointing out the facts of their poor record. Enough is enough.

The establishment has failed. We need a truly conservative party for a change. Time to pack it up and go home.

At the end of the day, with the budget set for the next year, what is anyone expecting from this crew?

They have a very slim majority. How many just voted for the omnibus?

Emmer is supposedly funded by Soros and may as well be a Democrat.

Biden has said he won’t cooperate with them, on anything.

Any investigations will be done half-assed and strung out until some crisis and then put on the eternal back burner while they address “more important issues”.

Pretty much, every single one of them is a joke, save a few, and they confused to get re-elected so they can keep screwing us over.

“less tied to the dysfunction which has existed for so long.”

The dysfunction is the whole point. We look at it as dysfunction. They look at it as the best way to keep power and dispense money to their friends.

I get it . . . which is exactly why McCarthy has to pay a price.

The need to give us at least an illusion that something is being done even if it is rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

I’m thinking Andy Biggs of AZ won’t be voting for for McCarthy either. Perhaps Debbie Lesko too.

Good for Paul Gosar, my current Congressman, and Eli Crane, my next Congressman.

Hahah, he’s being completely played. This is what thr GOPe pukes could have been doing to Rats for a decade and yet chose not to. This all represents exhibit A as to why he’s really not fit to lead. He’ll be a weak leader but he’ll probably get in.

Not a single Republican will vote for a D Speaker. Ergo, it will not happen.

If he can’t herd the cats, he’s wasting everyone’s time. Step down and find someone that can.

McCarthy didn’t do anything to deserve this besides remove Liz Cheney from a Chair position.

Like they always say..... “for the good of the Party”, it’s time for McCarthy to “step aside”.
