I guess polygamy isn't all that funny Upon reflection I decided that the reason I didn't understand the Utah reference was because for me in my mind it wasn't a marry BOTH scenario, It was NEITHER . I'm not polyamorous. Where was YOUR mind going hermano lmaoooo Thats it. Ima pipsqueak in and out of here. it's comic relief. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First he takes a piss on Mich McConnel's leg, then he backs Kevin McCarthy who represents Washington more than he does the Republicans. Trump clearly suffers from Narcissistic Personality Disorder He’s basically the perfect case study. Once you know that, basically all of his decision-making makes sense. It‘s not about anything other than him, and how much people grovel to him and praise him. That’s literally all that matters. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2022 Elections proved one thing to Matt Gaetz and supporters. That Trumpism doesn't need Trump anymore. Trump stepped in and tried to be the kingmaker. Instead he proved the point beyond all doubt when Gaetz told him to kick rocks without any consequences. Gaetz is after as much power as he can get.

Tommy Callahan Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) OMG these rebels want extreme concessions. Per Politico: *A one-member “motion to vacate”: The GOP leader appears to have finally acquiesced to a demand to lower the threshold needed to force a vote ousting a speaker to just one member. While McCarthy originally indicated that restoring the one-member “motion to vacate” was a red line, his allies now argue that there’s not a huge practical difference between this and his previous offer of requiring five members to trigger the vote. Rules Committee seats for the Freedom Caucus: McCarthy is prepared to give the House Freedom Caucus two seats on the powerful House Rules Committee, which oversees the amendment process for the floor. (Some conservatives are still holding out for four seats on the panel.) There are also talks about giving a third seat to a conservative close to the Freedom Caucus but not in it — someone like Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky. Who would pick those members is still under discussion. Typically, it’s the speaker’s prerogative, but conservatives want to choose their own members for these jobs. *A vote on term limits: This is a key demand of Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.), who has proposed a constitutional amendment limiting lawmakers to three terms in the House. *Major changes to the appropriations process: Fears of another trillion-plus-dollar omnibus spending bill have been a major driver of the conservative backlash to McCarthy. The brewing deal includes a promise for standalone votes on each of the 12 annual appropriations bills, which would be considered under what is known as an “open rule,” allowing floor amendments to be offered by any lawmaker. All three are things I hear both righties and lefties demanding. term limits, actual appropriation bills vs omnibus. that has a lot of support outside that building. 1 hour ago, B-Man said: seems like needed reform.
