Why? They don't care about this infighting, they're sticking together. As much as we say McCarthy is in bed with the dems, they hate him too and he's not. Otherwise some would have already switched and made him speaker under the guise of "lets get things back to normal"
Jefferies has gotten the most votes every single time, becuae dems are sticking together, worst case for them is this keeps stalling and makes repubicans look incompetent at running the government. Best case, Jefferies could actually become the speaker.
They care. But they can't let the 2 party illusion get destroyed. But they will happily shit all over him and embarrass the entire republican party if they can get a different swamp rat like scalise over the finish line. But if the alternative is MAGA they will stick together.
So, this could be one of the reasons Matt Gaetz is holding out; to not only expose McCarthy, but also the swampy Repubs who want never ending wars; i.e. Wars for Profit! (crimes against humanity). Now the Military/Trump can narrow those never McCarthy 20 hold out members as to who is working with the Military Industrial Complex, CIA and the Never Ending War mongers. Seems like they are Deep State players! Now exposed...and get rid of them!
MTG is adding some interesting backstory to all this that exposes some of what is going on within the Freedom Caucus as well. She is not happy and she is calling them out. They have basically thrown her under the bus in their power move to control committee membership. Sounds a lot like politics as usual to me and the members of the Freedom Caucus are not as Patriotic and noble as they try to portray themselves. Gaetz is trying to position himself. This is what you do in DC and politics is a dirty game.
I am not sure what to make of her. She is a mixed bag for me. However, I am looking for the clip I saw yesterday of her exposing some things about the Freedom Caucus and the power move that is in play here over these committee assignments. It seems she was pushed out and not given any assignments. Is she just crying over spilt milk and lashing out, or is she exposing some truth about behind the scenes politics? Not exactly sure and it may be a combination of both. We have to remember that there is what they want us to know, and then there is what is really going on. The two seldom align.
Ran across this today. I think it tells a great deal about the interactions between MTG and McCarthy. I think I am landing more solidly in the PO'd at MTG camp like you. I think this explains a lot about what happened with the Freedom Caucus basically shunning her from any committee recommendations. Were they calling her out as in... Hey Maggie, we know what you are up to. Was she McCarthy's plant in the Caucus? Is she sucking up to McCarthy because her own group kicked her to the curb - pun intended.
Gaetz should show the actual text thread, and not just quote this. I am not sure I can believe this unless McCarthy was being sarcastic. Gaetz strikes me as a person who is trying to stand out.
McCarthy should never have already moved into the Speaker’s office. How fucking embarrassing as well as presumptuous
Notice, the democrats are not calling for their secret fren (Kevin McCarthy) to evacuate the office. I wonder why?
Good point! You'd think that's something they'd be yelling about but they're not.
Theyre to busy laughing at us
No, they are shitting their pants.

No, they're panicking. This sends the inky message we want. No Mccarthy and we ha e people you can't control.
Infighting? They control a bunch of rinos and are losing their grip. They care.
The dems will give him the votes as soon as he gives in to their demands.
They will need cover to deliver 16 votes.
They have already told him they are ready to negotiate.

Why wouldn’t you vote for yourself?
Normally it isnt needed because you have majority
Do you think Trump voted for Biden?
over 400k times
Yep.

House Freedom Caucus just nominated Florida Congressman Byron Donalds to run for Speaker of the House against Kevin McCarthy.

Frankly, I'm a little PO'd at MTG for her stance right now.

Carnal Knowledge in Congress
He's a traitor.

We have a Republican (Sparks?) who voted "Present."
That's merely their way of showing dissatisfaction with Mc but not getting in the way of him winning.
No this is how they get their real choice into the Speakers chair -- Jeffries.
Whoa
My thoughts exactly
All that I know is that tonight's Salty stream ought to be lit with all of this going on.
This is the fakest sounding meme shit I've eve read...
So the fact I fully believe it seems perfectly appropriate considering the state of our current clown world.
Wait, is the “endless war” against the American people
LOVING this tea rn

Or the endless war for speaker of the house.
