Listening to headlines make me want to keep the chamber frozen. if no bills go through then there are no riders attached. If there are no riders there is no money forbthe D.S. if there is no new money for the D.S., the D.S. has to expend favors and IOUs. the more IOUs they spend, the less power they have.
Keep the D.S under siege!!!
"Our lives, our liberty, and our property are never in greater danger than when Congress is in session." -- Mark Twain
so perhaps this is a WH move, part of the plan.
Freeze it...then squeeze it! NO Deep State $$$s going to Ukraine and Israel. That $10 billion proposed should go to building our own wall! At the Southern border and the Northern border! That's our nat'l security threat!
Are you sure an interum speaker can‘t approve spending? I really want to know this. On the Patriots Win (Trump board) they are attacking Jim an no ine mentioned a freeze in spending.
There are 2 types of temp speaker. 1st is what the McHenry was, extremely limited
The second, what they're proposing, has most speaker powers, but I don't remember if passing bills was one of them. Sorry.
Agree for now... but have a plan if a speaker is needed fast, to have one with America 1st objectives... still like the idea of Trump as SOTH may be a more important role at this time than 'President' of a bankrupt 'corporation' with a corrupt congress.
My prediction:
I hope so my friend. Hope it's pulling off the bandaid swift like the overturning of Roe VS Wade
Which was kept hidden for some time
I like it. A general question just popped into my head. If a congress critter can say anything on the House floor, true or not, with no accountability; could President Trump, as SOTH comment on the ‘state of the NY judicial system’ without repercussion (ie his GAG order)…🤔
No. But nice try. 😁
OK! Thanks! 🤓
Especially with the announcement that happened last night, you are one step closer to being dead on.
Woot woot!!
Having a speaker won't do anything for us. anything passed will get rejected by the Senate. McCarthy did his job and got the committees and impeachment injury going. Now it is time for grid lock.
It's the power of Congressional subpoenas and investigations.
Correct, it looks like those important ones are already in place and the committees are still moving forward. Not having a speaker seems to be a planned OP for halting funding to forever wars or should I say the appearance and narrative of that.
America has been under seige since the plandemic started.
True. The catapulting cash at us while in lockdown is what stands out as the kenetic start for me.
Also true. I am thinking recently with this generation. Today's men and women in uniform who are 18-25 wouldn't remember 9-11. I'm thinking the starting push of the masses toward a singular precipice event was created when the lock downs started. The "two weeks to flatten the curve" lie united everyone. That to me was when they put America under seige. The aide money was their secret weapon that devastated the economy like diseased carcasses launched over a castle wall. They always had the media to hypnotise but the lock down killed business and the free flying money sunk the morale. Then came the kill shot... we've been under attack and harassed as slaves for over a hundred years. It's about time [they] get a taste of going broke.
What's that acting speaker up to? That's what I'm interested in. Everything else is theatre.
Darnkess…🤔
Won’t the Democratic speaker take over?
Sounded good to me but, Jordan just stepped back. He's asking McHenry to take the speaker job till January.
I am not sure that that is legitimate.... isn't the Acting Speakers Only job to act as traffic cop for the Speaker election?
Yes, but some in Congress want to expand the acting speaker's powers.
I just read that Jordan is going for another vote as the republicans don't want McHenry in there for so long saying he's a dem lackey.
They msy not be wrong.
YES!!!
