Great to see Margarine Tater Greene losing her shit. She hitched her wagon to McCarthy, hoping to get a plum Committee assignment like chair of Ways & Means so she could get her face on TV “investigating” Hunter’s dick pics and Joe Biden

LOL, another “very powerful” Trump endorsement :rofl:
Kev was his dog in this fight, getting clearer every day he’s lost his grip on the GOP. Even MAGA stalwarts like Matt Gaetz and Lauren Bobert are openly mocking him

Jesus fucking Christ . . .

The DoJ (or whoever) need to come down on him hard to make it clear no-one can get away with this kind of shit. Otherwise it’s tacit approval for him and all his fellow loonies.

He’s just canny enough to not make explicit threats. All she can do is go after him by civil means for libel/slander. Trump will be attached to the ongoing lawsuit against Rudy Giuliani et al.

Time to repeat the mantra.

Trump is a cunt.

Watching right now, round 6 and he’s going to come up short again. What a shambles

1493

Do they make them stay there and keep voting until they get a result?

1494

Looks like nobody is backing down anytime soon.

1495

There can be a motion to allow a smaller majority to take the vote.
It’s kabuki theatre really, the Republicans have no agenda so it’s not like any of them are ideologically opposed to McCarthy. The holdouts just want to leverage their votes to get assigned to committees and get in on the coming “investigations”.

1496

Democrats now agreeing for a recess to allow the Republicans to conference. Voting might resume at 8:00pm

1497

Democrats trolling Republicans hard as the vote tally is announced. Chanting “Hakeem, Hakeem, Hakeem”, for Democrat Hakeem Jeffries who will assume House Minority Leader once this mess gets sorted out

Can the farce get any more ridiculous? Yes. Yes, it can.

I see the Bolsonarists are carrying out their own January 6th riots in Brazil right now.

Meanwhile in the US a speaker who supported the uprisings against the 2020 result gets elected.
