The TRUTH is, the Republicans who know what's up wanted a Church style committee (which uncovered Operation Mockingbird in the 1970s) to investigate the FBI and other intelligence agencies (again) to show how they're corrupt. And the holdouts want term limits for members of Congress to avoid career politicians who spend decades doing nothing.
There are term limits on governors and of course the President, so why not members of Congress? They also want McCarthy to guarantee single subject bills so all kinds of things can't be lumped together into one bill which have nothing to do with the primary bill that's being voted on (aka PORK and other garbage)
And they wanted 72 hours to be able to READ bills before a vote. It's common sense, but the liberal media, AND brand name conservative media (like Sean Hannity and RINOs like Dan Crenshaw) have been attacking the America First patriots (Lauren Boebert, Matt Gaetz and the 18 or so others) holding out on voting for McCarthy in order to make him FIX SOME OF THE COUNTLESS PROBLEMS IN WASHINGTON DC.
That's what's what happened!
If we truly look at this realistically, I don't think any other Rep. would have been able to get the votes needed so the 20 effectively neutered him to the BENEFIT of We the People and MAGA. If it had been a MAGA candidate in the same boat, then the establishment would have neutered him/her to benefit the establishment. This was the best possible outcome available!
Let's not discount the fear factor that came from this leading to the nomination of Trump as speaker.
The meme Trump posted of himself making faces at Biden at SOTU likely sent chills down Every UniParty member spines and facilitated agreeing to Every concession made.
Agreed
Happy to be updoot 17
Sweet! Thank you, kindly!
GREAT SUMMARY!
What is sad, or pathetic, it should have been the designated speaker proposing this, not the "hold outs" demanding it.
Yes.
They put the screws to him on the rack, then they cut off McCarthy at the ankles. He is a SPINO. Schiff is upset at that fact. That means something good must have happened.
Turned on TV Thursday night (to use to watch X22 report) and caught about 1/2 minute of Faux news reporting on how embarrassing this is for the Republican party. And my first thoughts were - haha you are drawing attention to the House, you have no F'n clue, you're liars, you idiots.
Enough of the Endlessness.
‘That’ is not ‘what happened’. That is a series of abstract ideas symbolising your estimation of reality, 100% aligned with your belief systems, saturated with biases and beliefs.
You sound like a college freshman trying write a sociology paper due in the next 20 minutes.
Or a bot that 'learned' on freshman sociology papers.
Here is what OpenAI has to say about sociology:
Sociology is the scientific study of society and social behavior. It focuses on the ways in which individuals and groups interact and how societies are structured and organized. Sociologists use a variety of research methods, including surveys, experiments, and field observations, to study social phenomena and to understand how society functions. Sociology helps us to better understand the world around us and the people within it, and it can be applied to a wide range of fields, including education, business, and policy-making.
LOL - Very probably now here in clown-world!
No I don’t.
So what happened?
How on Earth could I or anyone here know?
Those that bring problems (arguments), should also offer solutions (explanations), otherwise it sounds like this…NAAAAAAAAHHH!
I brought neither a problem nor an argument.
Criticism = Argument
Didn’t criticise.
If you admit you don’t what happened then you don’t know what did happen and can’t state something didn’t happen. You simply don’t know squat.
Correct. But count the downvotes I received in this thread. That’s how many people also know squat, but think they know exactly what happened. They think they know what happened in closed door arrangements between politicians thousands of miles away. And they are angered by me for saying they don’t.
