Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) committed “three betrayals” to lead to the upcoming vote to eject him from the speakership, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) said Wednesday. Massie partnered with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who introduced the motion to vacate in April, to force the vote. They held a Wednesday press conference announcing their move, during which Massie outlined those three betrayals. Funding Democrat Priorities and Killing Regular Order Through Spending Bills. “The first betrayal was the omnibus bill,” Massie said. “Under Kevin McCarthy, we did seven separate spending bills.

MTG and Thomas Massie held a great news conference that everyone should watch regarding Mike Johnson should go. Massie made a great point that Johnson could simply resign, and there would be no House disruption, as the House would continue with normal business. Conservatives will win nothing with Johnson as Speaker.

I'm an old man. I've been a Republican ever since forever. For what? Republicans are just quiet Democrats. I don't need both hands to count how many real Republicans there are in the Senate. I've watched the republican party crush conservative voices in an avalanche of ringers during primaries to allow their favorite rino get the nomination. I've been voting for these crooks for over 50 years, hoping and praying for a turnaround in our direction. We just keep sliding down the grater blade and there's less of us now than ever. The Democrats are the commies and the Republicans are the traitors and together they are the uniparty. This Johnson guy proves it. We're finished. There isn't enough time to save the Constitution. There isn't enough talent to save the nation. I'm not even sure we'll get to November at this rate. The end times have arrived...

Just my opinion but all Republicans need to stop eating our own and concentrate on taking the Senate and Presidency and expanding a majority in the House!

#4, I agree with what you say, but at some point our pubbie leaders have to quit dropping their drawers, bending over and grabbing their ankles in order to placate the insane leftist. What good does it do to 'go along to get along'?

In Matthew 23 Christ is speaking directly to scum like Mike Johnson...Woe be unto ye Hypocrites! (paraphrased) It would help him greatly to go back and reread the 20th chapter of Exodus, especially the part about "Bearing False Witness".

The five-day operation in western, central, and northern New York involved federal agents from myriad agencies, including ICE, FBI, DEA, CBP, USCIS, and U. S. Customs and Border Protection. In what has become common practice in recent weeks, multiple federal agencies have banded together to conduct a targeted deportation operation in New York as part of President Trump’s “Operation Take Back America.” The operation calls for all federal law enforcement agencies to collaborate in the fight against illegal immigration, drug cartels, and the trafficking of dangerous drugs and human beings.

This collaboration between the auto giant and the administration highlights the growing impact of trade policies on the automotive industry and the push to bring more vehicles to American consumers.

Some in the U.S. Senate stayed up way past their bedtimes on Friday night, voting into the wee hours in a battle against mainly Democrat amendments attempting to derail President Donald Trump's agenda before managing to pass a budget plan. After the six-hour vote-a-rama ended, the legislation passed nearly along party lines, with "no" votes from Sens. Rand Paul (R-KY) and Susan Collins (R-ME), 51-48, around 2:30 a.m. Eastern time on Saturday morning. Here is what we know so far about the plan: On paper, the new Senate budget outline allows for $1.5 trillion in tax cuts, a seemingly modest amount. But that figure disguises

In a stunning revelation, a new poll shows Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) leading Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) by double digits in a hypothetical head-to-head New York primary matchup. This surprising shift in the political landscape highlights the growing power of the far-left faction within the Democratic Party as Ocasio-Cortez continues to build her base among younger, more progressive voters. Schumer, long seen as the establishment figure in New York and national politics, now faces a growing challenge from within his own party, signaling that even the most entrenched political figures could be vulnerable.
