If he ascends to the chair spurning Conservative colleagues and with help of the Dark Side, he is done for. Secondly, Democrat support will not come without a price. And what the Democrats covet most is power. Beware!!

Go ahead and make a deal with Democrats but not your own party members. We can then jump to the inevitable conclusion of politics in the modern era and quit continuing to waste our time trying to keep the Republican Party alive.

If McCarthy was voted in on day one, without these negotiations for rules changes and power changes, nothing would change, business a usual. McCarthy would rule like Pelosi having total control over what get said and gets done. Same as Paul Ryan. We need these discussions and changes three days doesn’t hurt a thing since the democrats omnibus keeps democrats alive for nine months. If you like what McConnell did McCarthy would be doing the same in the house.

I loathe this POS. He is one of our congressmen, and is a lying, backstabbing RINO masquerading as a conservative. The problem with voting him out is that, as bad as he is, the democrats that run against him are bat***t crazy. We can’t seem to get a good MAGA candidate to step up. Bacon is a one-star general which is typically what they promote you to when they want to get rid of you. He is thick into the Republican elite, both locally and federally.

The Founder's in their Wisdom and experience, designed the House of Representatives elected officials to only serve a shorter period of time in the Congress than those in the Senate. Thus the Constitution set 2 year terms for the Representatives to serve so they would be closer to those whom they represented in Congress. If the voters approved of what they were doing, they could go back to the voters for their approval of another 2 year term & so on. They were never expected to loose that close touch with their home base State and the people who elected them. But now, some are so entrenched there for decades they think they own the place! Newcomers are intimidated by those who have been entrenched there for too long & have lost touch with the voters who sent them there to TEMPORARILY represent them! The Congress seems to be bogged down in their abuse of the Founder's stated intentions for those elected to serve THIS country and its citizens!

Don Bacon is a liberal Republican and borderline RINO from Nebraska who wins his elections by just a few points, and no doubt would vote to elect Hakeem Jefferies, a socialist Democrat as the Speaker, if Bacon thinks it will help him win his re-election try in 2024. Remember Nebraska has a history of electing bogus conservatives who after arriving in DC turn out to be RINOS.

Call your congressman. Support the goals of the 20. McCarthy can't change his spots. His interest and the house leadership is intent on promoting the status quo which has benefitted them, the lobbyists, wall street and the globalists. They walked away from the fight and if anything, were complicit in all that happened --- the coup, the coordinated wuhan flu response, the continued efforts to squelch populist conservatism and limited government as espoused by Trump Palin, .... Call and vent to your congressman, They need to know how these twenty are standing athwart history, yelling STOP and we are with them. Congress have multiple offices, call them all. Load up their email. Don't have a republican congressman? Call the closest one. Next up, can someone put together or find the list with phone numbers for the brave holdouts? spend two minutes and voice your support. Like Trump, they ae fighting to save the republic and the great nation were once were.

Shockingly enough, the Biden White House’s Thursday announcement that Joe Biden was set to finally visit the southern border during his trip to Mexico for the so-called “Three Amigos Summit” has had the mainstream media pressing for details the administration has so far been reluctant to give. One tidbit we recently learned that shines an unflattering light on Joe Biden’s trip is that downtown El Paso has reportedly been “sanitized” ahead of his visit, with the migrant encampments that had previously cropped up being quietly moved out of sight. This has led to more speculation that Biden’s pit stop in El Paso will be an epic photo op flop, much like

The Spectator’s most recent cover dared to poke fun at President Biden’s questionable cognitive abilities, depicting him holding up five fingers under the headline, “Six more years.” When the magazine attempted to run the cover as an ad on Facebook — something it has done with many of its satirical covers — it was told the cover “didn’t ‘comply with advertising policies,'” according to the magazine’s editor, Fraser Nelson, who took to Twitter, where such things are now permissible, to break the news.

President Joe Biden has finally decided to address the unprecedented crisis at the border, unveiling on Thursday a plan that would, effective immediately, turn away Cubans, Haitians, and Nicaraguan migrants who attempt to illegally cross into the States from Mexico, only to welcome from the very same three nations — plus Venezuela — 30,000 legal immigrants per month. It’s a move that attempts to prepare for the end of the Trump-era Title 42 regulation that was put in place to limit the number of migrants who could enter the country during the COVID-19 pandemic, and it appears to be pleasing very few from either side of the political aisle.

We’ve seen Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) hold that banner high, as well as some of the other 20 who are fighting for that cause. That’s an important thing to fight for, to bring some sanity back to the decision-making. Rep.

Republican Kevin McCarthy has been elected as the new US Speaker after winning the 15th vote following chaotic scenes in Congress. Mr McCarthy's party had taken control of the House – the US lower chamber – following the midterm elections in the autumn, with a slim 222-212 majority. Usually, election of the Speaker follows seamlessly, as a formality, with the leader of the largest party a shoo-in for the job. However, recent splits in the Republican party meant that did not happen until the 15th round of voting. In the 14th ballot, Mr McCarthy received 216 votes - one shy of the number needed for a victory - as a small faction
