He and John Fredericks said it was confirmed on Thursday this was the plan.

The GOPe worked out a deal for however many Dems they need to not show up.

yeah, I think Mike got this from tCTH.

they are all friends. Pelosi probably whispered through her dentures that 3 of her people were leaving DC tonight.

he better hope he is not being trolled.

Those 20 will be a pain in McCarthy's arse for the next 2 years.

Nothing will get passed.

If I was a member of the original 20, I would wait to see how many D's are no-shows before voting.

Just listened to that segment on War Room and that seems legitimate, keeps the Uniparty Dims from exposing themselves.

They are bought or threatened. It's bloodsport for the amount of money that's at stake.

Good. Make me not want to vote for Andy Barr, or any GOPE politician even more.

Yeah. Likely bullshart. Anytime democrats start giving advice, it's usually smoke.

I hate to break it to y’all but it’s highly probable they need a few more trilli in spending this year and it won’t get held up in the house

Indeed. The spending won't stop. The voters love it too much.

I don't disagree with you, it's a huge risk McCarthy has pushed by refusing to step aside again. However, as I said in another thread. The government is funded through the year thanks to my piece of garbage Senator McConnell so I'm fine with this not getting resolved for the entire year. I'm fine with Washington being unable to do anything. Screw the federal government. Empower the states.

How are they going to spend money without the House concurring? One chamber can't pass any piece of legislation.
