This from Matt Gaetz is petty.
George Santos is already eyeing that piece of real estate as his next office space seeing as how easy it is to bluff and lie his way into Congress.
All ribbing aside, there is no Speaker of the House possible without a deal made to either the extreme far right of insurrectionists or the Democratic Party by McCarthy over the short term. Yesterday three votes essentially ended the same way with no one reaching the threshold for speakership. Even if McCarthy drops out it’s unclear Scalise would win over enough votes from the Treasonous Freedom Caucus that wants to end omnibus bills, cut social security and Medicare among other things.
I hate omnibus legislation yet that is the only way most government spending gets done. That is why this group seeks to end the practice and by doing so disrupt government so badly it fails.
Will Gaetz, whom Susan Portnoy and Remi Barrette worked so hard to get elected, succeed in destroying government, or will some Rs cut a deal to bypass the chaotic caucus?
