Biggest take-away from the McCarthy/Speaker drama:

Notice how carefully votes are recorded - and how only those who are supposed to vote are permitted to participate.

So much for election integrity for the REST of us.

She has a GED.

With that GED, she has been a restaurant manager, a pipeliner, and a restaurant owner. She has held honest jobs, and metaphorically signed the FRONT of paychecks.

That puts her head, shoulders, and maybe a bit more above any shitbird with a master's degree in government from some overrated communist indoctrination facility.

“ Boebert disputed claims from other Republicans that the opposition to McCarthy was “petty.””

If the issue is petty, then shouldn’t he simply after to it? After all, it’s petty, right?

Of course he would reject term limits...can’t give up them thar perks and power. Yeah I know the argument that elections can serve as term limits but in all honestly how many people don’t just tick the box by the name they recognize or by the party affiliation??

Border security...not until someone who has sneaked in blows up a building and kills people. Then everybody will point fingers, etc.

mccarthy held President Trump responsible for Jan 6..Why? because everybody else did. mccarthy went with the flow, instead of showing some backbone and supporting the president.

mccarthy is a flake, a democrat lite, a rino. he's right up there with liz cheney. mccarthy is the choice for the democrats. certainly not for the conservatives.

I don’t actually see anything wrong with them not voting for McCarthy as speaker. Trump keeps saying the country is going to crap. I know he blames Democrats but they can’t do it alone. It’s a Bipartisan problem. Just doing what you did 4 years ago isn’t going to save the country. Some people are talking about a civil war and yet not willing to rattle the cage regarding thr speakership. Doesn’t really make sense.

Nothing says clean government like outlawing audits.. Colorado Secretary of State : Mohamed Enab’s wife : Jena Griswold banned election audits..

Griswold sent out 30 thousand postcards to ineligible voters ( non citizens, dead .. ) in 2020 telling them to register to vote.. She did it again. - 2022.

“On January 3, 2023, Donalds received one vote in the election for Speaker of House, from Chip Roy. Donalds voted for Kevin McCarthy on the first two ballots, and switched his vote to Jim Jordan on the third ballot. On January 4, on the fourth ballot of the election, Roy nominated Donalds to be Speaker of the House, and was nominated by Lauren Boebert on the fifth ballot.”

If you haven’t figured out where Harvard / Yale / Georgetown are taking this country, you never will.

They passed a hopped up Woke Infrastructure bill costing $1.7 Trillion

There have been a Trillion seconds since Jesus birth.

That’s exactly what is needed. Not people who want to sit in congress for the next 30 years. Go there, accomplish something and leave.
