AOC said her customary is 10K per night and extra for Greek.

I don't take any of these politicians as being sincere nor uncorrupt.
Altho i do think AOC had some sincere plans with the Green etc.

Who is the old white phuck shes talking with?

[spurraider21]

looks like the only difference this time around is the anti-mccarthy people have consolidated around Gym Jordan... who himself has been trying to whip votes for McCarthy and is the one who actually nominated McCarthy :lmao

back to work for one day and already aching to leaveall they have to do is stay and to keep voting for Jeffries. hard to imagine they'd put an end to McCarthy's misery so easily.

It’s definitely the geriatric black caucus reps who are itching to leave early.

Never underestimate the black caucus’s laziness.

[Will Hunting]

Jordan already has more votes this round than last while they're still on the S's
Has anyone other than Donalds changed his vote yet?

Ken Buck basically said that he's gonna give McCarthy a little longer until he flips to Jordan

[Will Hunting]

Unless the Dems cuck out/get lazy and start leaving, I think McCarthy starts bleeding even more support.

[Reck]

Unless the Dems cuck out/get lazy and start leaving, I think McCarthy starts bleeding even more support.

Dems need to drop the long winded answers to speed up the process. Just say Jeffries and move it. Some of these people are giving military like responses like anyone gives a shit at the third attempt.

[spurraider21]

Unless the Dems cuck out/get lazy and start leaving, I think McCarthy starts bleeding even more support.
the question for the dems is would they rather have this version of mccarthy as speaker without a unified GOP behind him? or would they rather have McCarthy grant concessions to the boebert/gaetz style extremists (none of which would possibly be good for dems)... or would they rather have gym as speaker?

a cucked mccarthy with a fractured gop might be the best case scenario. wait until gym has 30+ votes behind him and then just have everybody start abstaining and give a weaker mccarthy the speakership

I think the goal should be to make the GOP look like the party of Gaetz/Boebert as much as possible.

merit to that too tbh

More important than the ultimate outcome, Imo the Dems should try to make this a multi day affair. The longer it drags out the longer it makes the GOP look like a circus.

[baseline bum]

Democrats need to kill any motion to adjourn, make six of the repbulicans vote for Jeffries if they want to go home today.

[Will Hunting]

Democrats need to kill any motion to adjourn, make six of the repbulicans vote for Jeffries if they want to go home today.
Disagree…make this a multi day affair that freezes the house and makes it so nothing gets done. Make the GOP look incapable of governing by letting them drag this out as long as possible.

[Will Hunting]

Apparently a GOP house rep went up to Santos to introduce himself but then immediately walked away once he figured out who Santos was, and beyond that there hasn’t been a single GOP rep to even acknowledge Santos.

It’s definitely the geriatric black caucus reps who are itching to leave early.

C-Span keeps panning to him showing him sitting by himself with rows of empty seats around him. What a loser.

I see resignation in his future. He’s not lasting 2 years.

[baseline bum]

This is hilarious watching C-SPAN and hearing all these Democrats just dying laughing in the chamber

[Reck]

Dan Crenshaw, Republican of Texas, says of the holdouts: “We’ve tried, and to a member, they have no idea what they want. It’s actually quite astonishing. They can’t articulate what they want because they’ve already gotten so many of the things they want.”

all this allows is more time for republicans to negotiate behind closed doors, make what deals they need to move on from this debacle after a clean slate tomorrow.

[DMX7]

Republicans will make the deals to get it done.

[Will Hunting]

all this allows is more time for republicans to negotiate behind closed doors, make what deals they need to move on from this debacle after a clean slate tomorrow.
If that happens then so be it but I don’t see a path for McCarthy no matter how much closed door time he has, the last time he was behind closed doors he made it worse for himself

[spurraider21]

If that happens then so be it but I don’t see a path for McCarthy no matter how much closed door time he has, the last time he was behind closed doors he made it worse for himself
so the worst case scenario here is they get it done. the best case scenario is we are what, back where we are today? so why even give them that opportunity?

[DMX7]

If that happens then so be it but I don’t see a path for McCarthy no matter how much closed door time he has, the last time he was behind closed doors he made it worse for himself

But now it may be a choice between him or a democrat, so that may eventually focus the minds.

[Will Hunting]

so the worst case scenario here is they get it done. the best case scenario is we are what, back where we are today? so why even give them that opportunity?
Because lazy old democrats were gonna start leaving for the day if this dragged on. Adjourning at least removes McCarthy winning with less than 218 votes as a viable option.

[Reck]

all this allows is more time for republicans to negotiate behind closed doors, make what deals they need to move on from this debacle after a clean slate tomorrow.

And so they do, and probably will. At the end of this, a Republican will still be the speaker.

This is nothing but entertainment for the outside party as I don’t see how democrats can have any type of say in this politically.

[Will Hunting]

But now it may be a choice between him or a democrat, so that may eventually focus the minds.
They’ve had close to 2 months to focus minds and are further away from a consensus than they were in November. So far their closed door meetings have only led to a more fragmented GOP caucus

Well no since the Dems technically nominated Jeffries first unless I’m missing something.

[Warlord23]

Dems should troll them by voting for Donalds in enough numbers to overtake McCarthy but not enough to achieve a majority

[pgardn]

Bunch of Bozo candidates leads to a bunch of Bozo representatives who are doing what with the swamp?

Can R voters actually fathom what they have done?
There are no leaders, they voted in a bunch of TAKERS. Exactly what they claim anyone who votes D are, takers and parasites.
The Rs have nonfunctional hypocrisy meters. Clueless retards…

Jeffries needs 10 present votes/walkouts to win a majority. There's legit pressure if more of the GOP starts doing it.

EDIT: Or is it 11? I keep seeing 433 votes, but there should be 434. In either event, he needs the pool to get down to 423 to win.

Oh duh, that's why he only has 212. The Virginia rep who died.

Every time there’s another vote it’s clear McCarthy just has no idea what his path to 218 looks like. He’s basically hoping for divine intervention at this point.

i mean, even if he strikes a deal with the dems to have some abstain or whatever, how does he plan on running the house? he's going to need 218 republicans to hold the line and he's clearly not going to have the support of ~20 people when push comes to shove

Basically the equivalent of this:


McCarthy told CNN earlier that he was not worried if his opposition grew on the fourth ballot. “It doesn’t matter — I have the most votes,” he said.

mccarthy's only play at this point is to strike a deal with the dems

as much as we laugh about him not caring about governing, the 20 people he's opposing are exactly the type of people who only care about getting more tucker carlson segments than doing anything remotely related to legislation. he's not going to wear them out. this is probably the only time these people are having fun in the capitol and not just scrolling through twitter

The difference between McCarthy and the 20 MAGA patriots voting against him is minimal imo

seems like the roll call stumbled and they skipped over Michael Cloud (or he wasnt in the room). he was one of the anti-mccarthy voters

One of the rules the nut cases want to have added is that 1 single member has the power to call a snap vote and remove the speaker if they so choose.

That’s extreme.

[Trainwreck2100]

not really McCarthy wants power for power's sake, he whipped for boehner on the fiscal cliff bill that got him booted, but when he had to votes then he stabbed boehner in the back and voted against it. So he's smart enough not to fuck over the country when it comes down to it. But the 20 MAGAs would definitely blow it all up just because they can. That being said hopefully the moderates got with him and said "you give the guys anything we want a cut as well"

no
