Gaetz has done the unthinkable. He not only got rid of the Establishment Loyalist McCarthy, but ended up replacing him with a real conservative. It just shows what can happen when a handful of men and a woman demand people do what they agreed to do.

Amen. From the little research that I have done on him, he leans conservative.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Well crap. 
 
He seems like a 100% Trumper, so that's mostly disappointing for me. But they had to elect someone and it might as well have been him.  Time to actually start voting on things, which is the only action that really ends up mattering in the end.

FU! To borrow a line from Tony Buzbee, The Boehner era ends today!

Here is his record on key issues.  I have not looked up his actual Congressional voting record.  It appears he leans conservative, and there has been some negative noise from the left, which is a good sign.

Exactly!

We won't win every battle, but we will know where we need to make changes and we will know who really is with us. I love accountability. The cream will rise to the top.

Unless it is via a discharge petition, which under current rules brings a bill to the floor within 30 days, the relevant committee must vote to send legislation to the floor.

Introducing extremist GOP Speaker nominee Mike Johnson.

He was a key architect of the Jan 6th strategy to overturn the US election.

Here he is leading a crowd that’s booing and telling a Congressional correspondent to “shut up” when asking about it. twitter.com/acyn/status/17…

   I was waiting for the results of Mike Johnson's tenure BUT if the biggest Trumper (RiV) is posting negative $hit about him already, I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.  Maybe he'll smash that platitude laden MTGA (Make Trump Great Again) movement also. :smokin:
