The less legislation Congress passes, the better.

A Republican senator challenged a Teamsters union boss to a brawl..


Bold-faced lie by AP. It was the other way around, and the Republican senator simply said in so many words, “Bring it.”

Speaker Johnson nor President Trump nor any “leader” can fix the fundamental problem(s) with our nation. They can slow the inevitable destination, but the problems we face are far deeper than most will acknowledge.

We have irreconcilable differences in a swamp of corruption. He is an improvement but don’t expect miracles.

Conservatives took particular umbrage at the temporary spending bill, called a continuing resolution, that maintained spending at the levels that had been agreed to last year, when Democrats had full control of Congress and Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., was the speaker.

For this to happen, we as a people don't have a functional Congress anymore. I don't know what the hell we have.

He released the J6 video tapes. McCarthy chose to do nothing while having whatever he does with Frank Luntz (Ewww).

Bitch and moan to make a point, but 220 Rs in the house —likely not more than 1—would ever vote to replace after the last episode.

His head seems screwed on properly.

At this point we don’t know what the speaker’s strategy is until it plays out fully. Good attorneys don’t always make their end game self evident when entering into a negotiation or a court battle. Laying out an initial plan may merely be his method of taking stock of the situation.

He needs to move two groups to a middle ground. Testing them is part of the process.

Anything from the AP is automatically assumed to be BS. They are as far left commie as they can go.

How is Johnson in control of a Senator woofing at a union thing?

No way we would shut down the government during the holidays, that would be just so mean and republicans are not mean ( unless it’s to each other).

No way we have discipline in the party, after all we are republicans and have no need for a “whip” to keep them inline.

I wonder if the GOP rules say anything about what would happen if nobody wanted to lend us money anymore. What do the GOP rules say about a trillion dollar interest payment.

No way will the republican congress have a strong, no nonsense leader, ever, they are just a bunch of go along to get along guys. The girls in the party are stronger willed than most of the men.

Why wasn’t Ken Buck kicked out of the freedom caucus and why was MTG thrown out.

In fact all of the republicans that voted against the impeachment of Mayorkas should be stripped of their committees. Make them pay for their stupidity.
