Mike Rogers confronting Matt Gaetz.", ">\n\n\nwhich nearly started a fight\n\nThe GOP were ready to fight each other, somebody else besides McCarthy looked like he wanted to take a swing at Gaetz.

The GOP got rid of the metal detectors.", ">\n\nI'm fairly confident that idiot would blow her toe off before she could use that gun on anybody else.", ">\n\nThe most dangerous opponent is not the one who is well trained with their weaponry, but rather the untrained fool with no clue what they're doing.", ">\n\n\"Dangerous\" is not the same as \"effective.\" \nLike being caught in a shootout at the grocery store with a grenade, that you pull the pin on and gently place on the ground in front of you for protection....", ">\n\nThis is the point I was making.

Kevin McCarthy is an idiot to think he'll last two weeks as speaker, let alone 2 years. Terrible negotiator.", ">\n\nYou're mistaken, they won't recall him. They like him as speaker now because they control him, and they can't realistically get anyone they like better.", ">\n\nControl him to what end though? Those 12 or so hold-outs, seem to have very limited knowledge as to what exact powers that the House of Representatives is limited to: Impeachment, initiation of revenue bills, oversight and investigation, approval for seating a new Vice-President and approval for treaties with foreign nations. \nThey cannot pass laws, cut funding for anything etc without going through the US Senate. \nThey will waste their 1 year and 10 months on these pressing issues:\nAttempting to hold the US economy hostage by threatening to hold-up a vote on the \"debt-ceiling\", unless their demands are met.\nInvestigating Hunter Biden and his laptop.\nInvestigating Dr. Fauci and \"the origin of Covid\" - effing laughable on every level.\nAttempts to impeach President Biden for simply being a Democratic president sitting in the White House.\nAttempts to impeach Sec Mayorkas for the failure to secure our southern borders.\nInvestigating The DOJ and FBI for their \"gross over-reach\".\nAttempts to impeach Merrick Garland ... ya know just because.\nHopefully, the people who voted them in will soon realize that all of their pre-midterm bluster about the economy etc was just that ..bluster and bullshit. They have no intention of working for the American people at all. Their only plan is to disrupt, obstruct and destroy the economy so that they can blame it all on the Democrats in 2024. Same old gameplan, just different players at the table..", ">\n\nI can't pretend to know what they expect to accomplish, but I stand by my comment that they won't be recalling him in 2 weeks.

Shame his humiliation of being rejected had to end. That was glorious.", ">\n\nOh, I think we’ll be seeing lots and lots of times mccarthy should be humiliated. But he has no shame, just like all the rest of them, so he won’t be humiliated. Jesus, did you see how he acted throughout 15 fucking votes?", ">\n\nHumiliation must be his kink.", ">\n\nThat’s it! Yep, that would answer a lot of questions about this ass-kissing goon.", ">\n\nAnd 100% on brand after 14 failed ballots. What a tool.", ">\n\nThis week's speaker vote was some of the worst secondhand embarrassment I've ever felt. The feckless McCarthy not only failed to secure his votes going into the week, but he continued to sit there like a child in his own dirty diaper after every failed vote, rather than engage with his party. Sad shit.", ">\n\nIf he had any sense of shame, he’d have packed it in after about 7. It’s ludicrous.", ">\n\nFor who though? There was no viable alternative. Did anybody else on the R side suggest someone, other than just as another name to throw their vote away on?", ">\n\nDon’t care. Just want to see losers accept that they’re losers sometimes.

Personally, I would’ve thought there would be more humility and discussion of important topics for the American people. Instead, he proposed to end “wokeness in schools” and “investigating the Afghanistan withdrawal.” Not to mention, they’re still pushing border security (whatever that means).\nHaving said that, what I found most chilling was when Rep. Jeffries was giving his speech and stated that America was a diverse nation of people from all backgrounds and races, the GOP just sat there with their arms folded. The GOP can applaud all kinds of crazy theories, take selfies, and even storm the damn capitol, but when it comes to saying that America is diverse, they want to protest in silence?

The tide is coming back in and it’s loaded with hungry crabs. 🦀", ">\n\nOf course McCarthy MUST publicly thank Trump. As speaker McCarthy will continue to suck up to Trump. The fact that he was voted in is disgusting and indicates exactly where Republicans are. They did not have the courage to clean it up. McCarthy - the traitor to democracy that he is - should not be speaker.", ">\n\nI believe that the 4 day ordeal was purposely set up by the Retrumplicans to take away from the J6 Anniversary", ">\n\n💯. I think it was all planned to last that many days. Total theater. A lame good cop, bad cop routine to make Kevin look like some master negotiator and deflect from January 6th commemoration.

Typical republican behavior!", ">\n\nEven when Trump has been somewhat “incapacitated” he still took a knee.

Truth is that McCarthy shouldn't be doing this due to Trump instigating the January 6th insurrection", ">\n\n\nWHy would he do this in the first place? \n\nBecause Trump actively supported McCarthy in his Speaker election, and his future support will likely be helpful with tough votes going forward. \nWithin the GOP, lack of support for Trump is disqualifying.", ">\n\nCan't take the cowardice out of cowards", ">\n\nAt this point this is the new normal 🤷🏽‍♂️", ">\n\nWhat a cuck", ">\n\nThe FBI is dragging their feet.
