I agree. MTG is my Congresswoman and a force to be reckoned with in my book. But nobody is right all the time, so I assume there is more to this needless slur than meets the eye.

Bobert needs to read the rules! McCarthy was ousted by a democratic, bi-partisan vote of the full House of Representatives. If she doesn't like the rules, she can move to change them.

Personally, I think that this (ahem) lady is a loose cannon and should be avoided at all costs....

Until Jamaal is ousted from congress, Gaetz is safe.”

I doubt that is true. Jama is a black rat he goes nowhere. Gaetz tore the curtain back, there is a target on the middle of his forehead

Matt can run in the special election if he is purged. I suspect he would win back the seat.

It’s almost as if there are two sets of rules.

Why not? We have two sets of US citizens now.

Just watch what's happening to whites in South Africa at the hands of the ANC, they are self-deporting in droves, abandoning farms that have been in their families for generations, just to avoid being arrested and imprisoned, or worse, by the "government".

We're next.

Also, if they do manage to expel Gaetz, it would set him up pretty nicely to get the VP nod, except that he’s from Florida, so he can’t. Guess he’d have to settle for some cabinet post.

Funniest post of the week!

What goes around comes around. Good riddance to Gaetz thr groomer. He can now run for Governor without the distraction of disrupting Congress.

This is one of the biggest flaws in Conservative Inc.

I see this all over Social Media. Conservative Inc seem to think they can simply impose their dogmas on everyone else. If they don’t get their way immediately, they go into screaming fit mode.

That is not how Congress works. That is not how politics in the US Constitutional Republic works.

If Conservative Inc wants someone to impose their dogma on everyone else for them, they will need to make someone Dictator. However, as a student of History, I will tell you that “cure” is worse then the disease.

And where’s Mittens on this “chaos”?!

"Mittens" is in the Senate. Gaetz is in the House. Do you know the difference? Senators have nothing to say about this.

Yes, the Speaker can refuse to schedule a vote.

Thank you for referencing that article Red Badger.

"We’ll just send him back next election................"


Expelling a member of Congress seems to be associated with disorderly behavior which doesn't apply to Gaetz imo.

"Article I, Section 5, Clause 2: Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings, punish its Members for disorderly Behavior, and, with the Concurrence of two thirds, expel a Member."

But since we're talking about expelling members of Congress, consider that the next major political event in US is not when hopeful Trump 47 gets reelected for the second time imo, but when Democratic and Republican Trump supporters primary ALL incumbent state and federal lawmakers in 2024 primaries, except for MTG, Gaetz & Company (and others?).

After all, lawmakers and executives continue to show that they do not have the patriotism and leadership skills necessary to find legislative support for effective remedies for unconstitutional government policies.

Constitution-savvy patriots can provide lists of patriots for Trump to choose from to endorse for 2024.

Patriots, let's not allow ourselves to be fooled for third time in 2024 by the corrupt, constitutionally undefined political parties that have pirated control of state and federal governments.

As a side note to this post, consider that probably the main reason that we hear media complaints about the electoral college is the following.

The electoral college is now the only thing stopping the corrupt, constitutionally undefined political parties that have pirated control of state and federal governments from permanently establishing a puppet presidency that will unquestioningly sign unconstitutional taxing and spending bills into law.

Collectively, all of the democrats have caused more harm to the country (not that Gaetz has), so, why not have a vote to expel all democrats from congress. It’s the fair thing to do.

Another thing, doesn’t a Representative have to commit an infraction to get kicked out? Gaetz merely applied a rule that was voted on by the body. On what grounds could he be ejected? I don’t think personal dislike and hate could stand muster.
