Kevin McCarthy: ‘I’m Not Going To Provide Anything’ To Dems To Save My Speakership House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said Tuesday that he won’t offer any concessions to Democrats in exchange for helping him keep his leadership post as far-right conservatives prepare to try to oust him. "They haven’t asked for anything, I’m not going to provide anything,” McCarthy said in an interview on CNBC. The GOP leader is facing a House vote as soon as Tuesday afternoon aimed at kicking him out of his top post. Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) is leading the effort to replace McCarthy as payback for McCarthy rejecting demands by far-right conservatives to include massive spending cuts in a bill to avert a government shutdown over the weekend. He's trying to impeach the president for no good reason. The dems should tell him to go pound sand.

October 3, 20232 yr 28 minutes ago, Gannan said: He's trying to impeach the president for no good reason. The dems should tell him to go pound sand. They should. McCarthy did the bidding for the crazy far-right bozos like Gaetz, and they still want to oust him. I don't know why anybody would want to work with them. But the Republicans refuse to work across the aisle either. They're stuck between a rock and a hard place.

While it is true the COLA was already approved last fall and set to take effect, the Senate added language to block the COLA in their resolution. The House conveniently did not. So while Republicans continue to whine about how much the government is spending, they approved pay raises for themselves. Missing context is the better retort. I’m pretty sure the AP is a better source of information than MT. Its basically like a left wing OAN.
October 3, 20232 yr This has never happened in U.S. history: The House just voted to remove its own speaker. Well done, GOP. Well done.

So Dem’s say this is going to make GOP unelectable in 2024. GOP says we can’t having any GOP members trying to make bipartisan deals with Dems. I could be wrong, but the House is going to let country go into default. Hang on America, the crap is going to hit the fan !

Exactly, while Biden is out helping seniors get cheaper prescriptions, the Maga Party removed a speaker of the house. Unprecedented. They are a party of chaos. Clown show. Dumpster fire, Chaos, embarrassment. That's what you get with Maga members.

October 4, 20232 yr 27 minutes ago, DrPhilly said: Interesting that MTG and Porn Boebert decided not to vote to remove McCarthy. I think they know that Gaetz is about to be removed and they don’t want to be caught in the crossfire.

House Dem Spots 1 Very Awkward Problem In GOP Plan To Make Trump Next Speaker But there’s a big problem with the GOP plan to make Trump the first nonmember to wield the gavel: Their own rules. Rep. Sean Casten (D-Ill.) gave his Republican colleagues a reminder of Rule 26, which was adopted in January and states that any GOP leader indicted of a felony with a potential prison sentence of two years or more needs to step aside
