Why wasn’t this “Framework” done a month ago, instead of waiting until McCarthy’s head was on the chopping block.

Because McCarthy thought he could bully the freedom caucus into abject surrender.

McCarthy has been an establishment GOP representative for many years. Hard to see him doing anything substantive to restore the Republic.

They are duly elected Congressmen and Women, just as the rest.
They have a duty to represent their voters, not McCarthy.
And they are doing so.
Or do you prefer McCarthy rule the House like Pelosi did?

Because McCarthy didn't NEED their dirty American votes. Until he did.

Wasn’t one of the original four times a “balanced budget”?
Did it get watered down to “guardrails aimed at curbing excessive federal spending”?
WHAT HAPPENED THERE TOO?

The group of 20 has been asking for this since the elections. McCarthy and the RINO’s refused. Now we’re here.

Because the swampocrats in Congress (along with their sycophants in the Repuke Party and FR) all thought the Patriots could be intimidated.

So now the leadership cannot stab us in the back in some effort to get along with vile Democrats and not pay a price for it?

As I understand it they howe been negotiating since August and McCarthy wasn’t interested. Now they have him by the shorts and here we are.

I read that rule had been the custom until changed by Pelosi, so this rule is nothing new and should be there.

The government is functioning just fine and until September when new spending bills are needed the House can stay home.
