If McCarthy is removed, the Democrats win.

It is convoluted but Kevin promised to not fund the IRS. Kevin promised Church Committee like hearings against the corruption in DC.

I think the dems COULD try to sneak in the marxist, racist, Obama puppet Jeffries.

The votes weren't there to do that.

Neither was there a leader to do that, hence a new leader

Again, if the Republicans were like the Democrats the votes WOULD be there to do that. Republicans just plain suck at teamwork.

Hopefully they can't get another speaker elected for the next year and two months or so... we'll finally have a REAL government shutdown.

You don't make promises you cannot keep. Mc Carthy lied to get the speakership.

Now he pays the price, about time someone paid for something.

Good on Bob. I anxiously await to see where my Rep stands.

If McCarthy had stuck to his word and allowed his conference to advance their agenda and neuter Brandon's administration through their majority we would not be in this position.

Folks here won't want to hear it. But it's true. Dems came out crowing this afternoon. Schiff said McCarthy is not "trustworthy." I wanted to vomit. Nasty nasty people, and Gaetz is working with them. I don't get it.

Gaetz actually sounded rational there.

I really don’t know what to think. If the Democrats want it then I’m definitely against it but I’m really not a big fan of Kevin McCarthy‘s either
