This is what happens and what should happen when a Speaker of the House promises 'regular order'....12 same subject funding bills to fund the government and then pushes for 'continuing resolutions which would then lead to a gigantic ' Ombudsman Bill' to expand the size, cost and reach of the Federal government.....at the last minute, usually just before Christmas. Continuing Resolutions and Ombudsman Bills have been happening since 1995...instead of 12 regular order bills to fund the government....in violation of constitutional rules. The people have had enough of this nonsense and elected republicans to the majority to change the way government is run and funded. Kevin McCarthy was elected Speaker based on promises he made to House members. McCarthy broke his promises. All McCarthy had to do was keep his promises. He would have been 'golden' McCarthy is now gone from the House Speakership! IP: Logged |

The sucking up to trump, is out of this world. They’ve asked trump to go in as speaker? 🙄 I need to take a break, and get some things done. See if I can really ground myself. I guess they'll be back for a vote in a week. I've seen people talking about rumpy being voted in, and then that leaves him in line for the white house, if something happens to Biden and Harris. I don't want to think about pubbies actually giving a coup another go. IP: Logged |

There was never any coup to begin with. You believe anything you are told. You are seriously out of touch with reality. If that were a real coup, weapons would have been involved, and you would have found out what a coup means. Deep down, you know this. No one can truly be as brainwashed as you make out to be. As far as President Trump goes, I don’t think they have the votes, but it would be glorious to see the liberal tears on that one. By the way, President Trump has agreed that he would accept an “interim” Speaker position, if offered it.IP: Logged |

Trump can’t be speaker, due to the rules of republicans. I suppose they could change them, because they are hypocrites. I’ve also just seen this: “The current speaker of the house wants to criminalize abortion as murder with no exceptions and has recently banned all openly LGBT people from entering his office.” I wonder how economic anxiety brought that about.

All the House has to do is create an ad hoc committee in order to change the indictment rule. President Trump's legal team has already filed an appeal on the judge's biased pretrial ruling, which is what the current trial stems from. That appeal should defeat this scam of a trial. IP: Logged |

I'm learning more about Matt Gaetz, than I ever wanted to know, and I'm going offline again. ugh. I really don't need to hear about these people having orgies, or crushing erectile dysfunction meds and chasing them with energy drinks, so they can go all night. IP: Logged |

We all saw it happen. We saw all of republicans who were prepared to go along with it. You’re always gaslighting. IP: Logged |

You only saw what they told you that you saw. You are a mindless drone. That was a weapon less protest that became a little rowdy.IP: Logged |

I saw what everyone else saw. I'm a human being, who knows exactly what happened. You seem to be a mindless drone, just repeating what trump wants you to repeat. IP: Logged |

Am I supposed to be happy that neither of your choices were accepted by the Republican party? Is that how this works? I didn’t like either of them, but I wasn’t thinking about how unpopular the people you agreed with are, until I remembered your thread from last night. IP: Logged |

There’s nothing wrong. This is the way the sausage is made. It can go several rounds because people have different interests, views, and ideas. Why don’t you look at the current infighting with Dems over Hamas and Israel for an example close to home? IP: Logged |
