Politicians don't care, nothing in their black hearts takes the place of mammon.

By popular request, this is another "High Noon" thread LIVE from D.C. in the heart of the Swamp!
Did McCarthy make a deal to get enough support either from the 20-21 hold out Republicans to become Speaker, or to get the Dems to vote present, or not vote, such that he might become Speaker underhandedly?
Will Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) again nominate President Donald John Trump, the rightful President of the United States, to be Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, such that he might return as POTUS after a successful petition for writ of quo warranto to remove Slow Joe and the Ho?
Do the Dems have a token white Congresscritter to nominate Jeffries to show they are a party of ethnic diversity?
Stay tuned to this Bat Channel!
No; check out Babylon Bee today; hilarious
“McCarthy needs to step aside….does not have the votes…..simple as that.”
No one else is running.
Luna is 6th of 20 to flip
These forums represent about 2% of the population, and are significantly right of the median GOP voter.
It’s important to keep that in mind and context.
Rep. Luna just voted for McCarthy.
Another holdout gets rolled.
Luna just voted for McCarthy. I think some other holdouts have also.
Miller is 7th to flip
8th flipper
Rep. Norman, SC just voted for McCarthy.
Politicians don't care, nothing in their black hearts takes the place of mammon.
"never Kevin" Norman... sigh...
The holdouts are folding, so yeah... it'll be interesting to see if any Dems switch last minute in this vote, or what happens in the next vote.

“We just lost Rep. Miller.”
Miller and Norman for McCarthy.
Rep. Perry votes for McCarthy. Another holdout gets bought off or rolled.
Looks like kev will lose this ballot but win ultimately
This Jefferies will be their next Obama. He’ll run either after Biden….. or in 24
He can’t drop out he is OWNED by the donors and lobbyists!! ANY DEAL they make with him WILL NOT be worth the paper it is written on!! They instal him as speaker they will LOSE many of the base who have just had ENOUGH!! MANY, MANY of the base are just going to DROP OUT!! I have been at this same BS for 50+ years winning and winning elections YET everyday looking at the GREAT DESTRUCTION of my once beautiful nation, this destruction is at the hands of republicans (just like McCarthy, McCain, McConnell, Graham) as well as the Dems I have watched the WEALTH of these people become absurd while the destruction of our rights, our borders, our education system, our medical care, has meant NOTHING TO THEM!!
