Democrats are planning on requesting several concessions of Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in return for their help if a motion to oust him is brought this week, Politico reported Monday. ...
In order to receive their help to keep his speakership, Democrats will likely demand McCarthy adhere to the spending levels he previously agreed upon with President Joe Biden, as well as ending the impeachment inquiry brought against the president, giving party members more seats on committees — including equal representation on the Rules Committee — and additional aid to Ukraine, according to Politico.
“The only way Kevin McCarthy is Speaker of the House at the end of this coming week is if Democrats bail him out. Now, they probably will. I actually think that when you believe in nothing, as Kevin McCarthy does, everything’s negotiable and I think he’ll cut a deal with the Democrats,” Gaetz told CNN’s Jake Tapper.
Gaetz believes that there will be enough House Republicans to support a motion to vacate the speaker, requiring McCarthy to turn to Democrats to avoid his removal, he said on CNN.
Following Gaetz’ announcement of his desire to oust McCarthy from the leadership role, the speaker told the congressman to “bring it on” during an appearance on “Face the Nation” Sunday.

“as well as ending the impeachment inquiry brought against the president”
That would be obstruction of justice for all involved.
Nice acronym. Is that new with you?
You make a good point, this exposes Democrats too. Republican traitors have been exposed for quite sometime. Just look at their votes on the debt limit and the CR, if there is any doubt. Of course there are plenty of other votes over the years that indicate many Republicans are just part of the Uniparty.
LOL !
I don’t see the problem. McCarthy lied to us. He can lie to Democrats.
Politics is a contact sport among dirty dealing sneaks as we all knew.
Why do the GOP guys always end up on their knees begging to be allowed to conform to the terms of surrender?

MS: "... So she’s not a RINO, Republican In Name Only. I said on National Review she was a DIABLO, a Democrat In All But Label Only."
Looks like Kevin McCarthy is DESTINED TO HAVING PUPPET MASTERS PULLING HIS STRINGS.
The only thing McCarthy believes in is his color wheel. And his hair spray. Dope.
It seems to me, that it is Gaetz, who is counting on Rats vote to oust the speaker. Anyway, this stupid motion is helping Rats one way or other.
I suspect McCarthy will not agree. He’ll just call Gaetz’s bluff and make him take the heat for shutting down the House. If it goes on long enough then the Dems will give in.
If Jeffries ends up Speaker they get what they want anyway.
Democrats, and many Republicans, care less that the USA is $32 trillion in debt. Disgusting!
I don’t see the problem.
