Speaker pro tem McHenry is pissed.
Love the first response: “Dude has some issues with that gavel”.
The only thing I can see happening next is that McCarthy will run for Speaker again, and win again. Because we live in the dumbest timeline.
Wouldn’t surprise me. They might even keep the same stupid rules in place.
It’s all a big ado about nothing, as the dynamics haven’t changed one bit: a slim R numerical advantage with more R fuckups than the number advantage, ergo, either the fuckups grow up or the leader works with Dems. We know the first option will never happen.
McCarthy did do something nobody ever thought was ever even remotely possible: uniting the Dems.
That’s total win of the day right there
Today is just too much winning for me.
Dems in disarray.
Deflect and blame others for his and the Republican Party’s failures? Or try to distract people from the truth by pushing bullshit and false narratives?
I say both.
And we all know that McCarthy always keeps his word…
I can’t imagine him wanting to go through all that again but there are people who freely hand over cold, hard cash to have disgusting things done to them so, who knows?
McCarthy’s super power is his willingness to humiliate himself, so…
Locally in the real world, there’s also this:
Damn. Tomorrow, everybody except for the “stable geniuses” is going to turn into a fucking zombie.
Gavel Boy McHenry has taken his first action as fake-Speaker: he told Pelosi that she had to be out of her office by tomorrow. He’s reassigning it and will have it re-keyed whether she has vacated or not.
What a douche-baby.
Pelosi doesn’t occupy the Speaker’s office. WTF?
I’ve had the pleasure of hanging out with Lloyd Doggett a few times. He is very nice and down to earth and totally dedicated to representing all of Texas. He has had his district gerrymandered 4 times by state republicans in an effort to defeat him. Hasn’t worked yet.
