Two names on the list: Rep. Buck and Mace really shocked me??

Buck criticized McCarthy on Tuesday for going back on promises he made to members of his caucus when he was elected Speaker in January.

“I supported Kevin McCarthy in January because I thought he was the person best positioned to keep our promises to our constituents,” Buck said in a statement. “It’s clear that we need a principled Speaker who can keep his word not just to members of Congress, but to the American people.”

Courageous heroes in my book. As a bonus we even have Pelosi thrown out of her congressional suite.

Andy Biggs. Eli Crane is good but too new to the House. Both are real conservatives.

Not shocking who isn’t on the list - but who should be. Yeah MTG I’m talkin’ bout ya’ll...and others.

The country’s going to hell, McCarthy didn’t do what his promised and bent over for the Dems to shove the CR up his...throat - and all the so-called conservatives are pissing and moaning about Gaetz being a glory hog and showboat.

Tell you guys what: You go get something done that has even a half-chance of putting the country on a better path and then we’ll listen to your whining about Gaetz.

With Mace it is all about ambition. By creating chaos she thinks she can step in and gain a shotcut to the Speakership. And with losers like bowtie boy, she might be right.

None. Donald J Tump is the choice. Get the Rats to vote for him as a protest. Would be fun.

I’m surprised Lauren Boebert is not on the list.

Yep. They told him this would happen if he did not.

Personally I knew he was not going to, because he never thought it would happen. He thought they were bluffing.

All heroes to me and mine. Shocked that so many others who have been spewing lies about being for the people did not join in!

If it’s President Trump, how much would his trial schedule interfere with his duties as Speaker? Giving the shenanigans of the DemonKKKrats, they might succeed, while Trump is sidetracked with a trial, in a vote to return America to the Confederacy. That is no exaggeration.

I like Andy Biggs and Arizona is due for a clean out of the McCain machine. Andy as speaker might rubber stamp that.
