MTG tweeted good things coming. and they immediately went into voting after the last fail.

A deal has been made.

I still think the outcome will be for McCarthy to work with democrats to pass a resolution stating popular vote wins.


This won't work out well.

GOPe just assume they can scare everyone into voting for them. It has worked so far.

Any semblance of power is used against any naysayers of their lobbyist bought agenda. Coercion with committee assignments also help compartmentalize representative efforts in order to keep their hands in controlled cookie jars.

It looks bad because congress was never meant to operate this way.

Round 10!

Same verse, but a little bit louder and a little bit worse!

at this point EVEN IF McCarthy gave Gaetz et.al. everything they wanted and got voted in, he's given the dems the blueprint to beat the hell out of him any time there's a battle going forward

so he's useless as SOTH, therefore GTFO

Hakeem Jeffries used to take the "train" to school instead of the bus. He should be Speaker!

I used to stay home by myself all day in the summer when I was 9. I guess I should be Speaker.

I honestly do not know how I remembered that, but that just popped in my head when I saw the 10th round is about to happen. Must have been something stored in the subconscious.

Crenshaw says that Byron can't be SOTH because he didn't raise millions of dollars to win the majority. Tells me that Kevin has been bought and paid for.

Crenshaw: "If you always set this precedent where a mere 20 people can just destroy the Conference of over 200, then you're setting a terrible precedent."

Translation: the donors paid big money for Kevin and if they don’t get the usual speed pass to board the ride they’re gonna stop buying tickets to the amusement park.

I used to walk through 10 feet of snow, to school, up-hill, both ways. I should be speaker.
