    Woo hoo! Finally, eight members of congress willing to stand up for what is right for America instead of what is right for the party. I hope those same eight ensure the next speaker is someone who will continue to restore heath to our great republic!

    Replace the elephant with Uncle Sam, Lisa. Because the US is more important than the GOP.

    But perhaps not to you.

    Gaetz action with his other 7 or so cohorts have given the Dems just they wanted. A Repub House sown with dissension, rather than united against their man in the WH.

    McCarthy was ousted because he compromised with the Democrats. And every Democrat voted to get rid of him.

    Never trust a Democrat.

    ‘Straight-up Nazi’: Morning Joe pounds Trump for spewing fascism as legal woes mountDonald Trump has been spewing “Nazi talking points” as his legal problems cascade, according to MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough.The former president, who has been indicted four times on 91 counts and found liable in court for fraud and sexual abuse, has recently threatened or celebrated violence against his enemies, and this week told an interviewer that immigrants were “poisoning the blood of our country” – which the “Morning Joe” host denounced as plainly fascist.

    GOP ready to exile Matt Gaetz to ‘small island nation in the Pacific’: Republican lawmakerRepublicans allies of ousted House speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) are plotting their revenge against Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and other GOP lawmakers who took him down.Some of his allies, such as Rep. Austin Scott (R-GA), have urged leadership to strip the mutineers of their committee assignments, while others have suggested Gaetz should be exiled to a remote corner of the Pacific Ocean, reported Semafor.

    Putin’s investment in the Republican party in general, and these MAGA yahoos in particular, is paying off handsomely. Their demands for allowing the House to function at all, the suspension of aid to Ukraine, is a dead giveaway.

    Then there’s the featured comment from “Ron Anderson”, an obvious Russian troll which functions to turn the comment section into the functional equivalent of the US House of representatives: divisive and dysfunctional. Which is rather the point, since that makes a functional democracy impossible.

    Meanwhile the dims are riding America into a beat down …

    Within a week of its release, Mark Levin’s book “The Democrat Party Hates America” took the top spot on the New York Times bestsellers list.

    A recent description of “The Democrat Party Hates America” said the book successfully points out “the radically dangerous Democrat agenda that is upending American life.”

    “The Democrat Party stands for the relentless pursuit of power and control,” writes Levin.

    “The Roman Republic lasted 482 years. Our republic is only 247 years old. If the Democrat Party succeeds, the American experiment will have failed,” he went on.

    In the book, Levin labels President Joe Biden as a “reckless and stubborn autocrat who has frequent temper tantrums and screams and curses at his staff.”

    Levin has said the book partly serves to expose “all the lies and propaganda Americans have been fed by the party’s press and surrogates for more than a century.”

    “This book is like none I’ve written and none anyone has read. The Democrat Party is an autocratic party that has never embraced Americanism. And today it’s destroying our culture, Constitution, voting system, educational system, citizenship, law and order, and more. It is an evil and poisonous party and always has been,” Levin said.

    “I unravel all the lies and propaganda Americans have been fed by the party’s press and surrogates for more than a century,” he added. “And it’s leading a revolution to fundamentally transform our country into a one-party tyranny.”

    Amen Mark.

    ‘I was attacked and booed’: Gaetz whines about treatment after ousting McCarthyAfter being on the receiving end of a chorus of boos from members of his own party while he was speaking on the House floor, Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz sent out an email asking supporters to send him money. “I was ATTACKED and BOOED by RINOs for asking you to weigh in and contribute to this fight,” the email read. “I will NOT be lectured by Republicans who grovel and bend knee for the lobbyists and special interests who have hollowed out this town and borrowed against the future of our future generations.”

    Well what did you think was going to happen brainiac?

    HHHMMM! McCarthy couldn’t pass his CR without the help from Democrats and Gaetz couldn’t unseat McCarthy without the help from Democrats. I thought that the Republicans were the “I can do this myself” Party yet they can’t seem to get anything done without Democrats.

    If only we had a political party with integrity and REALLY cared about the American people. The Democrats and Republicans are both failing miserably.

    I’m not saying ole Matty Boy isn’t a clown (in addition to being a criminal paedophile, but that’s a whole ‘nuther issue), but he’s far from the only one (again…) in that particular dumpster fire on a train wreck.

    Gaetz worked with 200+ Democrats to oust his political rival for the sin of working with Democrats!
