“So this means Gaetz did good, right?”

More than good. Great.

And I forgive all the Freepers who thought otherwise.

In Jesus’ Name.

Through the G’s which means about half of the usual suspects have had the opportunity to vote otherwise.

I’m not sure if any have not voted.

Fair points. We have all been disappointed, multiple times, by candidates who turned Deep State on us.

It’s very suspicious no one knows this guy’s position on the CR and bundling funding.

Johnson didn’t vote to vacate McCarthy, right?

Into the Ls, and GOP unanimous thus far for Mike Johnson. Jim Jordan received a resounding round of applause when he voted for Johnson.

Maybe. If we replace a major rino with a true conservative, the 22 day marathon might turn out to be worth it.

He’s rabidly anti-CR. Wants votes on one issue at a time.

IMHO, yes, he did. All the right people are mad at him for what he did. In politics, you're known by your enemies, rather than your friends.

As SOTH, yes.

But in fairness, without his efforts in the 2022 election, Nancy Pelosi would still be SOTH.
