Debatable...her soul certainly died long ago.Wait, she was still alive?
Shit like this is why Republicans will continue to lose ground in 2024.The House today was a different kind of shitshow with McCarthy getting fired and a whole bunch of circus to go with the act.

Was he removed because he caved and helped get Byron his CR?The House today was a different kind of shitshow with McCarthy getting fired and a whole bunch of circus to go with the act.

There was a CR bill before the one that got passed this weekend that had border security in it and those clowns voted against it becuase of Ukraine or some shit.

I'm not a fan of Gaetz or that factions political grandstanding, but I do like to see these career politicians get put back in their place. McCarthy out as Speaker and Pelosi punted out of the Speakers office is a nice kick in the ass to the ole boy system.
Nancy Pelosi evicted from her private office in the Capitol by interim House speaker
I'll preface this with I don't like Gaetz and that whole Boebert/ MTG whatever group. I think they are trash.
Anywho, one theme I've heard him hammer home in interview after interview is that McCarthy lied to Gaetz and the others. The umpteeth deal to make McCarthy the speaker made concessions for Gaetz and Co., concessions that according to Gaetz McC never carried out. Gaetz has threatened this day for a few weeks now and McC has blown him off.
Gaetz finally called McC on his bullshit. I understand politicians lie and everything, but as much as I dislike Gaetz, I agree with him on this one. McC crawfished on his deal and I think had he lived up to more of it, he'd still be the Speaker. McC is also a bag of shit, so I'm not sorry to see him go.
His ego won't allow it...I love the pipe-dream idea some on the far right are trying to promote of Donald Trump being elected as Speaker of the House. Now, I haven't been a Trump supporter and it's silly to think this would somehow ever happen, but, whatever, I'm in for the chaos...so, let's go!
Don't you have to be elected to the House first?I love the pipe-dream idea some on the far right are trying to promote of Donald Trump being elected as Speaker of the House. Now, I haven't been a Trump supporter and it's silly to think this would somehow ever happen, but, whatever, I'm in for the chaos...so, let's go!
And there is one interesting, unique footnote about the Speaker of the House position: The job candidate doesn’t have to be a member of the House of Representatives. But as of 2023, no person has been chosen as Speaker who was not a member of the House.
This is why I'm all in on the chaos. Let's fucking go...hold my beer.Just to exercise the imagination...
"What if?"
Seriously - I would love - just for the sake of theoretical conversation - to hear what folks think about such an absolutely surreal happening in 2023 America.
Because, lets face it - if there was EVER a time in the history of this nation that an unseated, twice impeached POTUS could fill the position as "Speaker of the House" - I would state with confidence that we are living on the fractured timeline of human events where a shipwreck could run aground and cause a train wreck that resulted in a renegade dumpster fire.
Our entire governmnet has become so completely full of shit and so completely arrayed against the poeple they are supposed to support that all I can think is - Trump as speaker?
What difference at this point does it make?
I swear - the absolute insanity unfolding before our very eyes - I can't seem to get the following tune out of my head:
-Come with me and you'll be, In a world of pure imagination - Take a look and you'll see Into your imagination
-We'll begin with a spin, traveling in the world of CNN's creation
What we'll see, will defy...
...Explanation
-If you want to view disarray; simply look around and view it. Anything you want to - do it
-Want to watch the world burn?
-There's nothing to it
-Trump as speaker, for show?
-Its a world of pure imagination !!!
-Living there, you'll be free
-If you watch it...
...on TV
This is why I'm all in on the chaos. Let's fucking go...hold my beer.
Well, she's no longer the former speaker, McCarthy is now the former speaker. So under the "tradition", McCarthy gets to keep the larger suite of office space for as long as he needs until there is a new "former speaker".She can poormouth all she wants, and people will lap it up because Republicans are evil creature hell bent on creating a Fascist state (or whatever those clowns think). Did it ever occur (it probably did, but you have to play the game) that sometimes you have to send a message? Sometimes you have to put your opponent back on their heels and unbalance them? If the Republicans are petty for evicting her, isn't she petty for whining about losing her exclusive space?
Upset the natural order.
