As to what is happening (or not happening) in the House of Representatives, most America First Patriots have always believed that Representative Kevin McCarthy leaned RINO rather than MAGA. Still, Republicans elected McCarthy Speaker of the House in January in a fair (albeit long) election process….
McCarthy did not follow through on several key promises, many of which are detailed in numerous other articles. However, Florida Representative Matt Gaetz and his illustrious seven followers ousted McCarthy with Marxist Democrat support while lacking a plan forward. There would have been some thought to what Gaetz did if he had included in his comments something along the lines of, “I ask for your vote to oust Rep. McCarthy and in his place elect Rep. _______.” Instead, Gaetz’s entire focus was solely to “Oust McCarthy!
Moreover, you need to question some of the seven others who lined up with Gaetz and Marxist Democrats to toss out McCarthy. Here are two:
Colorado Representative Ken Buck was one of Gaetz’s ouster-mates. RINO Buck voted against Ohio Representative Jim Jordan because Jordan (along with millions of Americans) believes the 2020 presidential election was stolen.
Will Buck do the same to the outstanding Florida Representative Byron Donalds, who announced on October 20 that he was running for House Speaker? Donalds is a big Donald Trump supporter and also believes the 2020 presidential election was stolen from our 45th president.

Please tell me it’s not going to be Hakeem because, at this point, I’m not sure that it won’t.
McCarthycrats include trump.
If dems and reps in the house dont want to appear racist, Donalds should be elected easily. Like with BO, gotta support the “first black.....”
When you have cancer, you don’t sit around and try to determine where it’s going to go next.
You cut it out first (or radiate it to death).
Mccarthy was and is a cancer.
First, cut it out.
Then figure out what to do next.
Simple logic applies
So you don’t like Trump, we get it. Yawn.
Don’t think it’s likely. My hope is that the impasse will rip the GOP apart like a piñata. It is full of duplicitous liars.
I hope they die. I’m sick of these political parties. Neither of them gives a damn about the country. Neither of them believes in anything. All they care about is getting fools to give them money, and jerking off with it. I keep hoping the latest dumb thing will be the one that teaches the masses to stop supporting these fools. It’s not supposed to be a 2 party system, and you’re not supposed to be loyal to a party at all.
We’ve been at that point for well over 20 years.
This was all by design.
Regardless at whose behest, the bottom line:
You have to tear it down to fix it.
The problem is getting the right people both in & out, and this is hardly the ‘demolition’ (aka ‘attrition’) some of us would like to see...
“”””Matt Gaetz and his illustrious seven followers ousted McCarthy with Marxist Democrat support while lacking a plan”””
“GAETZ DID NOT HAVE A PLAN” is the most overused Talking Point.
However, the NO PLAN Talking Point does not agree with history.
1. McCarthy had to agree to certain conditions in January 2023 to get the needed votes to become speaker.
2. McCarthy reneged on the conditions he had agreed to.
3. The GAETZ EIGHT filed the motion to vacate.
There was never a requirement for the GAETZ EIGHT to have a PLAN in place following a Motion to Vacate.
I’m curious. Which conditions did McCarthy renege on?
Robin wants to meet in Ripon.
“””I’m curious. Which conditions did McCarthy renege on?”””
here are the words I used in a google search:
“””deal to make mccarthy speaker”””
Here is one of many results:

where is the j6 footage?
Even rinos know that would be the kiss of death. I don’t believe there’s any chance of him becoming speaker without rino votes
Hope not - he was only a few votes away the other day
WHY????? Donalds is a CRIMINAL
DRUG CHARGES
BANK FRAUD
SPENT $$$$$ TO GET RECORDS EXPUNGED-—SO PEOPLE MIGHT NOT FIND OUT.
I MOST CERTAINLY WOULD NEVER VOTE FOR HIM-—EVEN AS A HOUSE REP.
WHY DO WE NEED A KNOWN CRIMINAL IN THE HOUSE TO BEGIN WITH-—MUCH LESS AS SPEAKER-—AND 2nd in line to be PRESIDENT!!!!!
HAS THIS COUNTRY SUNK TO LOW???
HAVE WE BECOME THAT STUPID???
THERE MUST BE BETTER CHOICES.
While I believe Byron Donalds has great potential, elevating him to Speaker would be like elevating a High School Star Quarterback to starting Quarterback in the NFL.
Donalds has only been in Congress for 2 years.
