The RINO’s and that Post Turtle Mitch McConnel must be ABSOLUTELY SEETHING right about now.
I know it’s been so long since I have seen more that one Republican stand up to the UniParty that I can’t even remember it but right now there seems to be enough of a pretty solid core of them sticking their fingers in the eyes of the rotten sonsabitches trying to ram McCarthy down everyone’s throats that it bears mentioning.
Win lose or draw, they have already caused panic in the upper ranks and that tickles me no end.
If they keep it up, McCarthy, McConnel and the rest of those treacherous pukes are going to have no choice but to cave in to some demands and that right there would be historic on it’s own.
Holding out long enough and letting the Democrats elect their guy as Speaker would cause absolute apoplexy in the ranks of the RINO’s.
As it is already, that fucking PUKE Crenshaw declared that these rebellious Republicans are and I quote, “They are enemies now,”.
Maybe someone needs to explain to these back room deal making assholes that the status quo ain’t no mo’.
As a matter of fact, most anyone I know already considers Crenshaw, McConnel, McCarthey and the rest of the Establishment Republicans, “Enemies”.
They sure as shit ain’t no friends of mine.
As a matter of fact, I wouldn’t walk across the street to piss in their mouth if they were on fire.
But hey, that’s just me.
And if anyone needs me, I’ll be over here in the corner giggling my ass off about this whole turn of affairs.
Conspicuously absent from the holdouts is MTG. I don’t know enough about her to know whether I should be surprised. Wishful thinking on my part, but all these old-guard pillars of the status-quo need to get primaried. As if that’ll ever happen, but a guy can hope, eh?
The list of 20 House Republicans not voting for McCarthy:
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/01/03/20-house-republicans-vote-someone-other-than-kevin-mccarthy/
MTG is still the only Republican not on a sub-committee.
I think a good move would be to make her the chair of the Ethics committee.
It appears that she caught the RINO flu with her support of McCarthy. She must be desperate to get on some committee. I thought she might be the real deal, but with this line of crap, she has just proven to be a RINO.
Is she still trying to prop up George Santos or has she come to her senses?
Mitch McConnell is from my state. Nobody dares runs against him nor do they want to. Repubs run someone who is virtually an unknown and is expendable. Saw an article recently that said how many new veterans are headed to Congress. I know of two R’s and one is a Navy Seal. He ran at the same time as 5 others SF were running. Only know that he won. Maybe it’s a start?
CTH has three open threads with something close to 1,000 comments for all of them. I hope the bfytw continues all week. Old Turkey Neck can sit on it and spin, he should have been dis-allowed from re-election 20 years ago. But he most likely wouldn’t have any skills to keep a regular job. chuckling
I wouldn’t go that far. I mean, I’d walk across the street to piss in their mouths if their teeth were on fire, but only if I’d eaten 5lbs of asparagus first.
Crenshaw I had hopes for. I thought he figured out his ass was showing when he got called out for he stance on red flag laws, and he had a chance to correct course, but seeing has he’s only slightly less active as an inside stock trader than Paul Pelosi, and then today, nah, he chose his side. He’s more interested in licking McConnell where his billionaire Chinese wife sticks her hand in to operate him remotely for the benefit of her family’s Chinese government-partnered shipping line.
5 lbs of asparagus??? Have a heart man!
Well, he could have said eggplant or rhubarb, or something equally as un-appetizing.
I see my Congresswoman voted for McCarthy. I am not happy with her!
She got a strongly-worded missive from me.
I gotten to the point I don’t care anymore. I just want to be around when things get
interesting like. like holding the bastards to account for all the shit they have done over the years. Dan the man made it thru BUDS. great. but he sold out when he got to the dump of clowns.
here the fun part, now that they have gotten Trumps tax form, we need to see all of the fuckers in congress now. I, for one would love to know how to become a millionaire like they do on 174 grand a years. hell. even the moron AOC is worth 26 million after 6 years ? how the fuck did a person with a 430 credit score manage that trick ???
when congress pass the new IRS funding all the while making sure it was NEVER to used against them, I knew they where fucking worthless bastards.
I have been waiting for this for a couple of weeks. Nobody brought popcorn :.(
Fuckin crenshaw. He is a democrat asslicker extraordinaire. I read that the longest we have gone without a speaker is 2 months, back in the 1800’s I think. Wouldn’t it be great if we went 2 years without a speaker who could swear in these commie fucks. How in the world would we get by??
I got into it about Crenshaw on Retalk. The guy was all about his patriotism and military record, but I held my ground that his record in politics was pretty dismal with respect to the Constitution.
No resolution, but……I was bloody well right and proven more right each time Crenshaw opens his mouth.
He is a less than useless POS
Fuck crenshaw.
Mcconel not worried, this is all theater, REMEMBER ITS UNIPARTY.
BASTARDS.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
How are the unsworn, newly elected representatives allowed to vote for anything, never mind speaker? If they are not sworn in, which is the first act of the Speaker in every new CONgress, how are they allowed to vote for Speaker?
That’s the most effd up rule I’ve ever heard of.
And they wonder why so many of us have just up and walked away…not looking back.
LOL, Eyepatch McCain is now resorting to calling those that oppose McCarthy “enemies”. Sound familiar?
https://thehill.com/homenews/house/3796652-crenshaw-says-hardline-mccarthy-opponents-are-enemies-now/
Only enimas of the RINO subparty are having the vapors about this, and the LameStream Media is all too quick to capitalize on any speck of discontent.
See that BIG lump in the carpet over there? Pull the rug off and watch all the cockroaches scream for cover!
I just read that Donald Trump posted an all-caps endorsement of Kevin McCarthy. How does that make any sense?
He’s getting really bad advice, and won’t think it through.
What I find odd is that the holdouts were voting for only Jordan (2nd ballot), who not only has said he doesn’t want the job, but nominated McMcarthy. The upstart Republicans might want to think on that. The only other R who’s officially stated he wants the job is Biggs. Well, there’s that old saying about never putting anyone in office who wants the job.
Jordan wants to be chairman of the Judiciary committee so he can start squishing the commiecrap Senators and Executive Branch slimeocrats. Let’s see THEIR tax returns!
Why can’t Jordan be both Chairman Of The Judiciary Committee and Speaker? I’ve not heard anyone offer a reason why it can’t be done. Hell, make at least one of them earn the damn money the make (skim).
Getting a bit lenient in your old age are ya?
What is keeping the Dems from voting for McCarthy in exchange for seats on committees?
They could or can. But they never would, not even in exchange or committee seats. Only RINOs rush to cross party lines and vote with Dems.
