I use the term “republicans” very loosely with these 4.

Moore voted no for procedural reasons, so the resolution could be rebrought. If tied, the resolution would be dead.

Some Republicans wanted this and John got it in for a vote. Getting rid of Majerkas is not as solution to anything. But getting his name on the record as doing a cr** job is the sweet part to me.

Spend the time on something worth the time. Majerkas is not worth it.

I don't think Trump should do anything except say he will reinstate his policies.

Yes, and Mayorkas will now go scorched earth on letting as many more third worlders in for revenge.

Mayorkas would never be convicted in the senate, anyway, so he is not going anywhere, but at least history would have recorded that he was impeached and that works for me. Still, it’s shameless republicans never stick together.

From the Epoch Times

Among the opposing votes were those cast by Republican Reps. Ken Buck of Colorado, Tom McClintock of California, Blake Moore of Utah, and Mike Gallagher of Wisconsin. Mr. Moore changed his vote in order to preserve a future parliamentary opportunity to reconsider the vote.

Mr. Moore changed his vote AT THE REQUEST of Speaker Johnson.

Intelligent people won't crap on Mr. Moore.

The others deserve it.

When Democrats control the House, they are relentless and brutal.
When Republicans control the House, they are timid and weak.

It’s easy to see which side will eventually destroy the other.

Once again Republicans demonstrate their most unique, enduring and reliable talent. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Note. Despite growing pressure from democratic majors and governors across the nation over this border debacle, not a single democrat defected.

That’s what they are doing now. They are not holding anyone back from entering the US, so I don’t quite get your point.

So many illegal aliens have entered the US since Biden became president, that the number is greater than the population of 38 states.

These republicans voted no.


The problem is that they are just the tip of the iceberg. If the Uniparty had needed more, they could have gotten another hundred votes or so. Trump needs to clean house. Anyone who voted to certify the 2020 Big Steal is suspect.

They desire power, over all else.

They will do anything to get it and even more to keep it.

All four need to be primaried, and their pork largesses cut off in the meanwhile.

Don’t be surprised if the GOPe loses the house this fall in spite of Trump winning the presidency, it will not be because the democrats ‘won’ it will because many people will not turn out to support uniparty, deep state types.

Here in Michigan we lost both the state house and the state senate for the first time in decades, people are just sick of the GOPe both state and national and simply won’t vote for these sellouts anymore as you might as well be a dem voter.
