House Republicans Take Revenge on Democrats for Ousting McCarthy

House Republicans took revenge on their Democrat colleagues for voting to oust Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) as speaker of the house.

www.breitbart.com

McCarthy took Nancy Pelosi's word to back him up?
No wonder he isn't Speaker any longer. He is too stupid to be Speaker if he took Pelosi's word for anything.

 

[vraiblonde]

Oh, so Swampy McSwamprat was colluding with Nancy and trying to buy her vote and he's all flabbergasted that she stabbed him.

Yeah, that's a freaking leader right there. Such a savvy political operative.

You don't even have to read between the lines to see what these awful scumbags are doing.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), a former populist turned establishment defender, echoed Pelosi’s position. She said McCarthy was not willing to cooperate with House Democrats, and therefore, Democrats did not vote to protect McCarthy’s position.


“Reminder that a major reason McCarthy lost his speakership and didn’t get any help in the first place is because of his unwillingness to cooperate, pettiness, and publicly insulting Dems when they did help him out,” she posted on X Wednesday. “So of course they’re going to repeat that winning strategy.”

These people are nothing more than mobsters.

And this is how stupid the Democrats are: they had a mostly perfect patsy in McSwamprat, plus or minus, and now they may have to deal with the likes of Jim Jordan who isn't going to let them boss him around. So I guess they showed him, eh?

I'd like to see the GOP take off the gloves and brawl for it all. Currently they cower and whine and bare their yellow bellies to the Democrats, giving them all the power. There's no reason to vote for most Republicans because they're just going to do what the Democrats say anyway. Might as well cut to the chase and vote for the Democrat.

And you folks saying Gaetz "worked with the Democrats" to get rid of McSwamprat, anything you want to say about Swampy working with the Democrats to get and keep the Speaker seat?

Well I was pretty happy when this temporary Speaker ousted Steny and Pelosi, I was thinking: Damn someone with balls, but then as I read on: He and McCarthy are bosom buddies, and the reason he ousted the two joined at the hip democrats was because his pal McCarthy wanted pay back for Pelosi not covering for him. Please, anything I might have said nice about McCarthy's pal McHenry I take back. C-sucker.

You could look at it another way and say it's a signal that we (Reps) aren't gonna play nice anymore. I did see that they were bosom buddies and I had the same thoughts but I will wait and see.

I don't ever want to give Nancy an out, but it is worth noting that she was out in CA doing some prep work to plant Dianne when all this came to head. Also, once Nancy didn't hold any power in her caucus her word meant nothing. Hell, no Democrat voted for McCarthy initially why would he believe he would get any now.

If they were smarter they'd have voted to keep him. Let Gaetz go down in flames and use it to campaign on. But they can't help themselves so they voted to get some mean SOB in there instead of the guy who was doing pretty much whatever they told him to do.

Everyone's acting like this is the end of democracy Like there will never be another Speaker again and we'll still be fretting about this a week from now. The media is like the Weather Channel during a hurricane - "Yes! Look at us! We're having a traumatic event! Watch us! Pay attention to us! Doom!! GLOOM!!!!"



Get over yourselves, media tards. You get paid to care about this bullshit, I don't. And most Americans couldn't pick Kevin McCarthy out of a lineup.

The thing that gets me most is that Gaetz's gripe was in getting the temporary CR passed by working with Dems. That would have allowed 45 days to get the individual budgets worked out instead of facing another GOP forced shutdown.

And if Politico reporting is accurate Gaetz then reached out to the Democratic Progressive Caucus leader Pramila Jayapal and other Democrats to oust McCarthy. Now, which of the two is the bigger worm?

Let me stop you right there.....

This is pretty much what I said about Trump, if the D’s were smarter they would have worked with him and he would have given them pretty much anything. He likes nothing better than to make deals and trades. Instead Nancy decided she’d treat him like a piece of crap and **** up the works for four years.

 

[vraiblonde]

Politico aside, McSwamprat reportedly reached out to Nancy Pelosi to keep him in his seat. So.....? You can't say that Gaetz is the bad guy for doing the same thing Swampy did. I mean, you *can* but it's not gonna fly. Of course both of them tried to whip the Democrat votes. Of course they did. It would have been pointless not to.

And Gaetz won.

So let's unpack that, because that's gotta hurt. McCarthy made a deal with Nancy and she hosed him but good. Gaetz made a deal with what's her flake and it went through. So who's the guy who can work with Democrats to get things done?

Let's not forget that Gaetz led the charge to not elect Swampy Speaker in the first place. Swampy's little butt boy (his name is deleted from my organic cache) even made an ass out of himself trying to fist fight Gaetz, like Gaetz wouldn't knock that bad toupee right off his head. McCarthy knew he was on shaky ground and had to make a good showing, but he's so arrogant that he ****ed around and found out.

So now that that tweak's gone, I'm interested in who will replace him. I'm liking Jim Jordan, will accept Scalise, Chip Roy is my dream but I don't think he wants it. I have to say, I'd never heard of McHenry before but he's shown more balls in 24 hours than McCarthy did in 9 months. The bold choice would be Byron Donalds but I'm not sure he's ready for prime time just yet. It would make me happy, though, for the first Black Speaker to come from the Republicans so we can watch the racist pig Democrats drop their masks.

Regardless, I'm sure it will be fine.

Yep. They can't help themselves. I expect that sort of rebellious tween behavior from the Squad, but seeing it from long time warhorses was surprising.

Epic!!!

 

[vraiblonde]

Epic!!!

It never seems to matter, though. There is no bigger racist POS than Joe Biden, and black people came out just like usual to vote for him. They throw fundraisers for him and look the other way when he calls them "Boy".

But it's fun to watch them explain how the white guy calling them racial slurs is their savior while the black guy trying to help them better their lives is a white supremacist.

The Media is going to paint them as evil anyway they should just go for it

Judge Jeannine observed the same thing - when McCarthy at last capitulated and gave them all sorts of stuff they wanted - to quell the hue and cry of "Republicans want to shut down the government" - EVERY SINGLE LAST DEMOCRAT VOTED HIS ASS OUT.

You'd THINK a few of those whom he gave stuff to would have cast a vote in favor of him - but every damned one of them bit him in the ass at the first try.

Let's not forget that Gaetz led the charge to not elect Swampy Speaker in the first place.

The one thing about him is - it IS personal, to him, because when his ass was on the line re investigations - no one came to "help" him.

So now that that tweak's gone, I'm interested in who will replace him. I'm liking Jim Jordan, will accept Scalise,

I've always liked Jordan. But I really would like to see their reaction when they nominate TRUMP. The Speaker does not need to be a member of the House.

Initially I looked at it that way, but I am sorry to say "it aint gonna happen".

This is pretty much what I said about Trump, if the D’s were smarter they would have worked with him and he would have given them pretty much anything. He likes nothing better than to make deals and trades. Instead Nancy decided she’d treat him like a piece of crap and **** up the works for four years.

She **** up the works for a lot more than 4 years.6 and still rolling on now and it will take a long time to correct the mistakes Joe Biden has made and stop America from being a laughing stock for electing him. Not the mention of the money it will cost to re-supply our own military while we have given away needed equipment to Ukraine.

As for a black Speaker, I have no problem with having a black Speaker if he is qualified, my only problem is that if republicans appointed a black Speaker at this time wouldn't it appear that we were doing the same thing the democrats have been doing ? Appointing a black to try to buy the black vote?

 

[vraiblonde]

The Media is going to paint them as evil anyway they should just go for it

Right? They keep going, "Oh, we need to be nice and kiss their ass so they don't say mean things about us," then the media says mean things about them anyway. So ass kissing doesn't appear to be working.

 

[vraiblonde]

I've always liked Jordan. But I really would like to see their reaction when they nominate TRUMP. The Speaker does not need to be a member of the House.

Trump won't come even close to getting the votes, so his nomination is just trolling the Democrats. But I'm highly amused watching their heads pop off.

Nah, black people vote the D no matter who it is. MLKJ could run as a Republican against some Democrat skinhead with a needle hanging out of his arm and black people would vote the D.

Byron Donalds actually has some talent.

 

[GURPS]

There was more. Remember how the first thing McCarthy’s deputy Speaker did was evict Nancy Pelosi from the Speaker’s office, which she unaccountably continued to infest? The unconfirmed rumor is that McCarthy had made a deal with Pelosi. She was to keep the Speaker’s offices — where McCarthy should have been — and democrats would vote against any motion to remove McCarthy. So he thought he had insurance. But Pelosi welshed, so McCarthy-ally and deputy Speaker immediately evicted her from the office.

I don’t know if it’s true. But it would explain the odd Pelosi office eviction that happened immediately after McCarthy was evicted from the Speaker’s job. So it seems it’s up to Kevin McCarthy now, to deny the rumor, and explain why the very first order of business was evicting Nancy after all this time.

Other rumors this morning suggested that Kevin McCarthy is now moving into the Speaker’s offices. I hope that’s not true.

Meanwhile, add a third point in the Gaetz column, since it looks like McCarthy used government property — the Speaker’s office — to recruit Nancy Pelosi and the democrats for his own political benefit.

If my math is right, that’s Gaetz: three, McCarthy: zero.
