That's 213.  That blocks Jeffries.

You guys are going to F around and hand this to Jeffries if this keeps going.

Do it, and I’ll move there in a minute. I have a sister north Austin already so thinking about making that move regardless. That said, I’m not to the point I believe the country is unsaveable.

Without a rule of law?  Good luck! And I sincerely mean that @Mesaclone

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

Speaking of "F", who has a liberty rating of "F" and is being considered for a position that he has consistently used to bear those same fruits ... That is the central point that is being overlooked by some.

The 20 are doing the work that needs to be done, no more letting the enemy lead you while wearing a mask of a sheep. 

Everyone knows that the word of McRino isn't worth the breath it took to make it, he will still continue to slime his own party time and time again.

The 200 have votes too, and principles that count as much as the other 22. Placing what 22 people want above the votes of 200 other fellow Republicans…is wrong. The way to KNOW the 22 are in the wrong is straightforward…if they were honest and principled they’d have a candidate of their own, not a shifting chimera of Rep du jour unable to gain more than 22 votes.

Are we up to 11 knockdowns yet?

OK, Mr. McCarthy, stand back up for punchdown number 12 !

A day or so back, I said I was hoping it would go to 40 votes (at least).
Looks like we're almost a third of the way there already!

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

You mean McCarthy.  He's the one who keeps pushing for votes he can't win while at the same time refusing to give up the concessions to Conservatives that would secure his victory.

I'm positive Gaetz wouldn't be upset.   Might even be his goal.  He and Boebert would be wearing poop-eating grins while saying "See what McCarthy did!"
