[Ef-man]

so if this goes the distance those new reps don't get paid right?

I believe someone said the rep staffers do not get paid after ten days.

House committee staffers face no pay if speaker isn't decided by Jan. 13, officials warn

Iirc, plum committee chairs were demanded before there was any vote. Wouldn't be surprised at all if McCarthy caves to cling to power, we already knew about his flexibility in this regard.

Fascists getting stronger was always the probable result, it's just a matter of degree at this point.

At some point the question is if Dems are demanding less.

In fact it's a very realistic view of the heads in the GOP. It's all theater all the time, but still the same heads at every screening.

It’s just a red herring.

at least with Matt Gaetz, he just really hates McCarthy and is never going to vote for him.

[baseline bum]

It's better than anything a functioning republican house would be doing.

Now do you see what I was saying about how adjourning yesterday was smart when this is how the closed door meetings go?

[pgardn]

If Trump can really “function” as president, why can’t Bobert be the brains and the head of the committee for new nuclear power and weapons.
A red team member can do anything if Trump can.

Dr Darrin could be head of any committee dealing with public health and nuclear medicine.

Lmao I asked the same question about McCarthy setting into the Speaker’s office without even been appointed the position. That shouldn’t be a thing.

[Will Hunting]

McCarthy wants to adjourn for the night.

[Reck]

McCarthy wants to adjourn for the night.

What kind of desperation is this?

what a waste of time this would be if they do. Wait 4 hours just to adjourn. you Kev.

[spurraider21]

roll call on adjournment vote (done electronically)

[Reck]

McCarthy wants to adjourn for the night.

Pussies. They want to adjourn.

NOs louder again. This time they will go to a motion

What’s the threshold for this? So far one Republican votes to keep going.
