I would be shocked if they embarrass McCarthy, now.

Session called to order.
Prayer.

I’m going to assume someone will question whether they have a quorum.

Several House Rs are upset about being in the dark about the concessions McCarthy made to try to win the gavel and are grumbling about the rules package they'll have to vote on tonight if the speakership is set, sources tell

Fck these other guys. They get what they want with the Californian cuck and yet they still want to screw over the people. The people want the rules.

“Over the last several days, Kevin McCarthy has allowed this process to work.”

WTF choice did he have?

Those deals are meaningless. These idiots are not going to get a rules package or the motion to vacate. He’s going to present the Pelosi rule and democrats will cover the votes of the 20 and it’s all for nothing…

Just watch

Yeah, these platitudes are superfluous and silly.
No one’s here to debate his personality.
