” Oversite Investigations” that do nothing.

Not true. In 9 months, they’ve uncovered more than the DOJ has in seven years, including Durham. They’re currently conducting an impeachment inquiry - last week subpoenaing Joe and Hunters’ bank records. Even the Democrats/MSM have started distancing themselves from Biden because of what’s come out.

Re: 217- Agreed. If McCarthy is not ousted, Gaetz will be stomped. Doubt they would toss him out of the Conference, but maybe lose a Committee assignment.

"McCarthy said his goal is to work with Democrats."

You people continue to demonstrate your ignorance of governance. The dems have the Senate and the WH! The Speaker has to work with the party in control of the other parts of the govt! How is this unable to be understood by the people of this website???

Pay Attention, this is a thread about supporting Gaetz and his motion to vacate the chair. But your comment about supporting DeSantis has been noted.

A shutdown, a year before an election will cause the dems to take the WH, Senate and the House in 2024? You’ve got to be kidding me. You need to get a clue!

The Swamp protecting Joe and Hillary for a decade is going to preserve the Gravy Train.

Everyone knows that.

Lindsey Graham said Biden had to be President, now he says McCarthy has to be Speaker.

Pretty obvious.

We know where laying down gets you, and the GOP is there.

I am trying to find that info.

Levin seemed in the know based on conversations he said he had with both House and Senate Members.

He spoke very poorly of Gaetz. Also mentioned some previous run-ins in had with Republicans, specifically Orrin Hatch who had said lurched to the left his last term in office. Said Hatch wanted to talk with him (on the air?) and Levin turned him down.

That’s my point. I don’t think there’s a prayer of removing Biden, but anyone opposing him ought to be on record. Same with McCarthy.

I’m ambivalent about this one after all. I’m thinking this through, and Gaetz could succeed in his motion with all the Dumb-O-Crats and a few other conservatives forming the majority to oust McRINO. Then what???

Gaetz offers himself or some other conservative as an option, and the Dumb-O-Crats offer some Commie as an alternative. Soooooooooo . . . some RINOs side with the Dumb-O-Crats to shoot down the Gaetz choice and also to install the Commie.

A distinct possibility that I’m not sure Gaetz has thought about, unfortunately.

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

An impeachment should stand on its own even if it doesn’t “accomplish” anything.

What exactly is Gaetz’s next step here? Who does he intend to support for Speaker among House members who can actually get more than 30 other House members to support them — a DEMOCRAT?

McCarthy is 100% Dirt bag, liar and a cheat.

Be sure to tell that to Donald J. Trump, who spent a few weeks bullying the House to elect McCarthy as Speaker.

“ voters determine who they wish to represent them in DC”

Are you happy with what the DC republicans have been doing for 4 decades? If so, I stand corrected. If not……

4 decades of problems:
Bending the knee
Illegals
Wars
Debt

None of us, huh?

But YOU, of course, can. You’re accomplished. Connected. Brilliant. Elite.

Are Freepers deliberately leaving out the part about the Swalwell girlfriend being a Chinese Communist spy?

Or we’re supposed to happily accept a gaslight about the Gaetz connex to American traitor Swalwell because Gaetz is trying to oust McCarthy?

Your feeble attempts to bully are laughable. You will never match Howlin. She was legendary. You are not.

My Gathering of Eagles montage from 2007 has more than 67,000 views on YouTube. I put it together after joining tens of thousands of patriots in D.C. March 17, 2007. We stood up face-to-face against the anarchists and other filthy liberal protesters who threatened to vandalize the monuments in D.C.

That was just one of our many conservative and patriot gatherings over the years.

Can't recall, what are your conservative creds?

Or, you can simply continue your vacuous name-calling drivel. Doesn't really matter.

How about MTG? Give it up after a few ballots. McCarthy needs to know he’s being held to account.
