@MrWhatsItToYa

 No idea why the previous poor attempts at posting did not work out. an_roll_laugh

But...No, I was not talking about Cruz.  I was simply pointing out that he was one that opposed the spending under Trump.

I guess you could change the topic to him if you like, he was certainly one of them at the time.

I hear Germany's economy was absolutely fantastic under Hitler,zero percent unemployment.Can you "take out the good from the bad" there also?You are right,I can't do that,a crook and a conman,will always be a crook and a conman to me. What was the original issue I brought up to start with,McCarthy's spinelessness? I'm going to get some dinner and watch the Cubs game,talk to you later.

I root for your Cubs! peace_5

Upset Republicans considering quitting bipartisan group

 

CNN's Melanie Zanona

Republicans on the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus are
considering quitting the group “en masse” after Democratic
members voted to oust Kevin McCarthy as speaker,
a GOP member said.

   The potential blow-up of the group is just the latest sign of
the fallout and fury following the historic removal of the speaker.

Kevin McCarthy told fellow House Republicans
he will not run again for speaker.

A GOP conference meeting ended "abruptly"
after McCarthy made the announcement,
according to Rep. Ralph Norman.

@KellyM_1964

McCarthy made a deal with the MAGA-devil.  His self-centered desire to be Speaker led him to accept an ultimatum that any single member could bring up a motion to vacate on a whim if they choose.  Stupid deal.  But McCarthy took it to satisfy his only desire and it came back to bite him.

Naturally he blames the Democrats for all of it. thejester

   an_policeman  SCALISE flees from circus!

 

  thejester And the GOP CLOWN SHOW continues thejester


CNN —
     House Majority Leader Steve Scalise announced
he was dropping out of the speaker’s race Thursday
after House Republicans failed to coalesce behind him.

The swift downfall of Scalise’s speakership nomination
came just a day after the GOP conference voted for him
over Rep. Jim Jordan, 113-99.

The withdrawal was as shocking as it was predictable,
after a band of Republicans almost immediately blocked
his path and said there was no way they would vote for
Scalise as speaker.

The move deepens the House GOP leadership crisis,
with still no indication there is any viable candidate who
could secure the 217 votes needed to win the gavel.

 an_police  GOP leadership crisis deepens
        as House remains paralyzed
   with no end in sight to speaker’s race


And the GOP CLOWN SHOW continues


CNN —
By failing to coalesce behind a candidate,
Republicans have plunged the House into
uncharted territory and effectively frozen
the chamber at a time when major international
and domestic crises loom, from Israel’s war
against Hamas to a potential government
shutdown in less than 5 weeks! an_speechless

HEADLINES today . . .

 

Jim Jordan flip-flopped yet again and vowed to stay in the Speaker race despite STEEP resistance from many republicans in the CHAOS PARTY.

 

Meanwhile, because of the GOP CHAOS, Congress remains frozen as a government funding deadline looms.

 

Round 3 vote expected Friday morning, probably around 10 am ET
