So long, loser!!!

Let the vitriol begin from the Swamp-dwelling RINO/establishment sycophants in 5-4-3-2-…

{And, here we go!!!}

216-210.

That was this afternoon’s vote to effectively oust squishy/wishy-washy/tell me again why is this guy any different from the democrats, (now former) Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy.

The process was part of the intricate and delicate balancing act that he was required to sign off earlier this year in order to secure the necessary votes required to be elected speaker after 15-some-odd floor votes.

Freedom Caucus members held out for things that, ahem, “Republicans” used to stand for like fiscal responsibility and limited government.

Things like:

• Single subject spending bills.

• Making tax and spending increases easier to block.

• Voting on a bill to place term limits on those serving in Congress.

• And ending the litany of continuing resolutions/stop gap funding bills.

In case you’re wonder how/why such things came about, you need to remember that Congress has been horrible when it comes to creating (and sticking to) an actual budget. The last time it had done so, was way back in the 90’s!

This problem with following through with one of the core responsibilities of the job that literally hundreds of millions of dollars are spent each election cycle in order to get people like you elected, leads to the glaring problem clearly illustrated below.

 

And last, but not least, among the long list of horse-trading taking place before his final vote earlier this year for House Speaker, was a Sword of Damocles provision, which allowed House Members to make a motion to vacate the position, should Kevin McCarthy ever renege on his agreement.

Can anyone reading this post, cite for me any examples of Kevin McCarthy showing a scintilla of integrity by following through with any of those bullet-points above?

I thought so!

Obviously, establishment republicans are extremely P.O.’d over the fact that Rep. Gaetz had the wherewithal to initiate the process calling out Kevin McCarthy on his duplicity Monday evening. See the clip below to see what I mean.

Temper, temper.

So, in the end, what does this all mean?

Well, here is my $0.02 on the matter.

First off, people are way past sick and tired of the oligarchy & plutocracy which has been hell-bent on destroying America. See that US Debt Clock graphic above to see what I mean.

Second, people are tired of “republicans” engaging in back room deals in order to fund their pointless wars in places like Ukraine, which serve NO strategic American interest (something McCarthy did with Biden’s handlers literally just last weekend).

Finally, remembers those Swamp-dwelling RINO/establishment sycophants I mentioned at the beginning?

There were ONLY eight Republicans who voted to remove Kevin McCarthy. Their names are below:

• Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz.
• Rep. Ken Buck, R-Colo.
• Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn.
• Rep. Eli Crane, R-Ariz.
• Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla.
• Rep. Bob Good, R-Va.
• Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C.
• Rep. Matt Rosendale, R-Mont.

Notice how many people from Michigan are on that list?

Ask yourself: Why would those who claim to be “representing” Michigan, vote to maintain the Swamp and keep Kevin McCarthy in as Speaker?

Something to ponder, people.
