Not sure a good ol’ fashioned bullshite counts as “profanity,” or if muttering is considered “flying,” nonetheles ….

FoxNews

quote:

Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., muttered "this is bulls---" under her breath during a House GOP Conference meeting Tuesday regarding House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy's bid for speakership.

Good. This needs to happen and it needs to be VERY public.

Has the anti-McCarthy contingent put forward a candidate yet?

Its a totally pointless clown show if they don't actually put up an alternative candidate.

Eyepatch McCain had a conniption on Fox News this morning.

Called Republicans opposing McCarthy nobodies, they don’t matter, petty, children, and said who the hell are they to make demands?

It was very enjoyable.

I really hope it gets to the level of Uganda...



If it does is there a mechanism for disbanding Congress? Asking for a friend...

It's gonna eventually be McCarthy but I totally enjoy the GOP burning their own house down. Because frick them. Just the first step in a neutered, all talk, do-nothing House.

Is Boebert supporting McCarthy now? She isn't mentioned in the 5 opposing him.

Doesn't matter.

Ominous bill basically paralyzed the house from doing anything meaningful for a year

I like how Lauren muttering "This is bullshite" under her breath passes for "profanities flying".

Journalism is dead.

I’m enjoying this clown show. I kinda wish the Dems would ask for a secret ballot, nominate and put their votes behind Liz Cheney. Would only need a handful of Republicans to support it. Would be freaking hilarious.
