He’s done!
McCarthy must be lovin this
And MTG is the only member with the balls to call him on it.
Why is that? Let’s hear some attempts to justify voting for a Democrat bill filled with pork and woke.
They might as well elect Amy Schumer as Speaker if all they’re going to do is rubber-stamp bills written by her cousin Chuckie.
Under House rules, the speaker schedules floor votes on pending legislation.
The Hastert rule says that the speaker will not schedule a floor vote on any bill that does not have majority support within their party—even if the majority of the members of the House would vote to pass it.
“They might as well elect Amy Schumer as Speaker if all they’re going to do is rubber-stamp bills written by her cousin Chuckie.”
That would be funny if not for the fact that many Republican representatives would be all for it.
Shut down government if the dems don’t pass independent spending packages. Seriously, if people can’t get by without government services it tells me our government is too BIG and involved in thins best left to the private sector.
When they get rid of him, then with all the resignations, House control will pass to the Dems; if you think $1.2 trillion is a lot, wait to you see the spending the Dems will put up and pass.
Thank you. My RINO voted yes. I’m done with him.
When Johnson became speaker, all the Republican party groupies thought he was the savior.
What a joke. Another GD lawyer turned professional politician who looks like a 60 year old little boy. Pathetic.
We need leaders, not lawyers!
And the members are voting for it. So it is not just Johnson.
Well no kidding? The Republican party is filled with posers, liars and corrupt insiders.
Trump was for passing the budget.
Hastert and violated in the same sentence is appropriate.
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA)
I gave him a fair chance as speaker. Now, I believe he needs to go. We keep firing Speakers until someone can give us a balanced budget and helps the Nation.
EXACTLY.
NOTHING THAT HAPPENS THIS YEAR MEANS ANYTHING OTHER THAN TRUMP WINS OR TRUMP LOSES.
NOTHING!!!
Passing this money avoids upheaval. The outcome of upheaval is never predictable and Trump leads in every poll. Not just pro Trump polls. All of them. When you are ahead you do not tell people to create an explosion.
You run out the clock.
Passing this bill was a good thing. It is about that substance created from nothingness called money.
Do not change Speakers over this.
Johnson is yet another lifer lawyer turned professional politician.
Ya can’t trust ANY of them.
We need leaders not lawyers!
Mike Johnson wielding the authority of his YUGE MAJORITY! /s
Give the guy a break.
Although originally well intentioned, the Hastert Rule has been effectively dead for over a decade now.
