The spin factory going on in this man’s brain is something. He is blaming dems for not backing him and pulling 8 people from their side to take over. Going on about how “Pelosi” backed him no matter what. Then named “Hakeem” and went on about something else.
Ope, not he is talking about the trustworthiness of Ga•etz.

Looks like the house has recessed until next week.
Gov types are all flustered. No one has any clue what is going to happen in 45, er, 43 days…

Huh. I didn't think they would really do it. I figured it was all for show, like filing articles of impeachment against President Obama. Never went anywhere but was red meat for the base. They've gotten a lot dumber since then. For real.

Is there any chance it would be Jim Jordan? Don't put that out there!

This summarizes my feelings about Dems not bailing out McCarthy and potentially ending up with a worse speaker. I’m proud of them for sticking together. Exactly. And my being surprised they actually did it was directed at the GQP. I hold no judgment on the minority party voting to get rid of the leader of the majority party. If the situation were reversed and it was a faction of Democrats attempting to take down the democratic Speaker, I would be in no way shocked for the GQP to vote against the Speaker.

Yeah it was actually the squad that bullied Kevin into allowing the Motion to Vacate, taunted him during debt ceiling and budget negotiations, and filed the Motion to Vacate. It was Dems the whole time 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Out of curiosity and laziness (because I could google) does the 1 person motion to vacate thing end with McCarthy or is this the new GQP norm?

I *believe* it stays in place, because it is in the rules of the 118th Congress. A new Speaker doesn't mean a new Congress, so unless there's a mechanism to change the rules during an active term, I think the MTV stays

What is a capital hideaway? Is it just a smaller office closer to the chamber? Do only certain people get them?

This is great to see loan forgiveness where especially needed is still happening. I start repaying mine this month and feel very wah about it but I am still thankful for the break from it.

I was thinking about this earlier today and it dawned on me that they way Dems are held responsible for the GOP's behavior, regardless of any and everything, is similar to the way in which women are always held responsible for men's behavior. And now I'm even more angry and annoyed about all of it.

And now I'm even more angry and annoyed about all of it. 💯 even my workplace is a microcosm of this. The females bust ass, follow the rules laid out or verbalized, and are very honest about making up hours of any flexibility is provided. Meanwhile some men purposely cheat hours even after being talked to about it.
