House Session - October 17, 2023
(Excerpt) Read more at c-span.org ...
Diaz-Balart is a friend of Scalise. He says he doesn’t like “how Jordan treated Scalise.”
Spartz delayed her vote. For whom did she vote?
Massie, I believe, per a post on TFT/Lakeside Granny.
Jake Ellzey (R-TX) cast his vote for Mike Garcia (R-CA).
Jordan isn’t doing any better than Scalise. It’s time to empower acting speaker McHenry who can’t be vacated and get on with business.
She represents Ukraine, not her district in Indiana...another ‘tribal’ vote.
Anyone know why?
Anna Paulina Luna gave birth to a son on August 27, 2023.
He says he doesn’t like “how Jordan treated Scalise.”
Oh, grow up, Diaz-Balart.
What a drama queen!
There are 212 dems in the house. They all voted for Jeffy
Jefferies has NO business being speaker.
THIS IS A COUP IN THE HOUSE.
I don’t want Hakeem. Too near the Presidency.
Well, that’s the problem, at least with Bacon. He appears to be representing his district, or, at least his best chance of keeping the seat in 2024.
What the hell kind of a reason is that?!
Jeffries will be the new speaker. Thanks gang of 8
Grow up and face facts.
There aren't 100 conservatives in the House. There may not be 50.
The GOP is not a vehicle to advance conservatism, if it ever was.
Right now, it's dead and the body is still twitching on the floor of the House, but it needs a decent burial so we can get on with forming an opposition party with the ability to take power and use it for good.
I get their personal issues. But country first.
For the good of the country and the party, they need to support Jordan.
Senator Richard Schweiker (R-Pa.), generally viewed as a RINO despite supporting Ronald Reagan, on “party loyalty” (on his return from the 1976 Republican National Convention in Kansas City); “I learned what party loyalty means: It means the conservatives have to support the liberals, but never the other way around.”
I look at all those people on the floor, laughing, smiling, winking and nodding, high fiving each other, all dressed up in their Sunday go to meeting outfits.
You’d never know the country has gone to hell in every direction, with them at the wheel.
Maybe it’s all about Ukraine $$ with some of them?
Not unless several vote for him. Or like 10 or eleven vote present
Jeffries? This is insane.
The Dem left has always triumphed because it has what the Communists called “party discipline.”
