Quoted: It is not a win for America if we don’t elect a Speaker. Once we have a Speaker, we can start hearings on the Biden family and Mr. 10%. The Democrats spent two years holding hearings to destroy Trump. There is some pretty strong evidence tgat Biden and his fa,ily have violated federal laws. Congress should be investigating this ASAP. The last thing we need is six years of an unchecked Biden administration. View Quote Do you really think that oversight hearings are going to achieve anything? While "i don't know", "i can't recall", "I'll need to get back to you on that", "I can't comment on an active investigation", etc and lying are acceptable answers with no consequences then committee hearings are a farce. |

Quoted: Nothing can be voted on without a Speaker. Every time I can remember the government being shutdown, the voters have taken it out on the Republicans and voted for Democrats. I for one would like to see fewer democrats in Congress. View Quote And how much of that was due to the democrat propaganda machine? |

Quoted: I didn't read the entire thread but has anyone mentioned that the next speaker of the house could very potentially end up POTUS if FJB keels over and the Whore gets "removed" for "reasons"? I wonder if this has something to do with the hold outs that won't fall in with the party line .... things that make you go hmmm View Quote Only if she fails to install a VP which won't happen. |

View Quote Well, Jordan is out for speaker... ETA: Another response to that^ video stated this was before the first vote. Still, he seems all-in for mccarthy... |
|
Quoted: Marjorie Taylor Green said she’s now behind McCarthy and on Bannon’s War Room said that Gaetz, Bobert and Perry had a closed door meeting with McCarthy demanding committee positions. So tomorrow expect them to vote for McCarthy. MTG said she wants to move foreword, take the win and start the investigations. The three mentioned above, according to texts she read only care about the positioning and the hold out was a sham for the positions. Mind you these four are all a part of the freedom caucus. Lol. View Quote So it's costing her money because she doesn't get the extra pay for being in comittees yet? |

Trump's own words on his continued support for Kevin McCarthy.
Attached File So much for him reconsidering his endorsement. Trump says McCarthy will do a good job, maybe a great job? Going after the Biden Administration sure isn't part of that.

Quoted: I hate to say it but, it kinda looks like President Trump is realizing the horses pulling the MAGA wagon (us) are breaking from his reigns and running free, actually wanting the swamp drained. He probably listens to Bannon's War Room podcast. In fact I don't think any of the podcasts I listen to like McCarthy. He's probably thinking "Uh Oh, wait a minute guys". As far as I can tell, the only people supporting McCarthy are the people in the House that want or even care about committee positions, not about the country. View Quote |

Trump has a long history of choosing pieces of shit. Trump likes to win no matter what. So picking the piece of shit most likely to win is better than picking someone better who will most likely lose. At least in Trump's mind. |

Quoted: Trump didn't start MAGA, he borrowed it. MAGA was here before Trump and God willing it will be here after he's gone. Boebert, Gaetz, et al. are doing a better job fighting the swamp than DJT. https://i.ibb.co/4msKjwg/ronnie.jpg View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: I hate to say it but, it kinda looks like President Trump is realizing the horses pulling the MAGA wagon (us) are breaking from his reigns and running free, actually wanting the swamp drained.

Jordan should now step forward and broker an agreement between McCarthy and the 20 hold-outs. A discrete set of concessions that McCarthy and Jordan can promise.

He backs, endorses or promotes people with the expectation that they will owe him and will reciprocate when he needs it. Someone with no power, no authority - nothing to give him he doesn't already have - is of little use to him, no matter their value to the country or party. |

Quoted: Quoted: Nah, fuck being discrete. Make it public. They serve us, not each other. Discrete, not discreet. "Discrete" means separate and specific things in this case, as opposed to some vague and nebulous assurances that never materialize. "Discreet" means "on the down-low" |

the clerk.house.gov site had MAJOR lag/delay in posting results. Might be better just to follow along live.
C-span feed. ETA: be warned. while there are plenty of fap-bait Reps for the leghumpers, the majority are not particularly photogenic. Just hope they don't have too much opportunity to speak, spit, and sputter. |

No nomination for Jordan? Maybe they came to a deal last night, unless the previous 19-20 switch to Donalds.

Quoted:
View Quote This is a brilliant move on the Dems' part. Although a coalition government is very unlikely, it extends a branch to McCarthy to see how desperate he is. If he takes it (and all the Republicans in his favor don't bolt), he and the Republicans will have sold their souls to the Democrats. This offer is also a great na-na-na-boo-boo to the Republicans, shaming them in how fractured they are. |

They're backing Donalds as the alternative. Different tact than yesterday.
ETA: Unless there are party defections it will go to a 5th vote. |

View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Make no mistake, when McCarthey wins, he's going to retaliate against this bloc of people who voted against him, and it's gonna suuuuuuuck. He's definitely a swamp rat of the highest order. I'm guessing that if he does and it's in writing it will be all over the news. McCarthy needs the dissenters to get anything passed in the House. This vote for Speaker is a prime example. They are showing him. McCarthy ain't retaliating against anyone without a huge risk. |
