Republican politicians and associated committees are sending out desperate fundraising emails begging the GOP faithful to help save America by getting behind Herschel Walker in his Dec. 6 runoff race

Not making much progress today it seems

 

12:58 PM OCTOBER 12, 2023  -  Republicans convene closed-door meeting on Speaker

House Republicans have convened for another closed-door, no-phones-allowed meeting — their fourth this week — to hash out their disagreements about their nominee for Speaker, Steve Scalise (R-La.). While Jim Jordan is publicly supporting Scalise, the current House majority leader faces enough GOP opposition to sink his bid on the floor, leaving the House in limbo.

 

It is not clear what his detractors and skeptics need in order to support him. Some of them are simply opposed to the status quo leadership. There is also anger about a failed rule change proposal that would have raised the threshold to nominate a Speaker — a proposal that allies of Scalise opposed. 

 

02:35 PM OCTOBER 12, 2023  -  Republicans leave meeting with no next steps

Members leaving GOP meeting described it as an airing of grievances that moved no holdouts to Scalise.

Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) called it a “kumbaya session.” Rep. Mark Alford (R-Mo.) called it a “marriage counseling session.”

 

And there are no plans for next steps — either to lock down support internally, or for votes on the floor.

A criminally corrupt rapist, 4x indicted, conspiracy promoting, idiot demagogue is their hero and choice to lead the country at these critical times.

 

A criminally implicated idiot who’d rather talk fast and posture than legislate is their choice to lead the House of Representatives at these critical times.

 

The maga ride or die crew routinely displays contemptible behavior while prioritizing performative theatrics over developing legislation effectively leads the house majority into chaotic often untenable situations, yet they are their chosen ‘fighters’  to lead at these critical times.

 

The grifters, starting with the media, have created so much light between themselves and the truth that it’s now costing them real $$. They aren’t even trying to inform, it’s all about their agenda and power - regardless of the spectacle.

 

so much winning.  It’s sad, as we really need a reasonably functioning government now more than ever as the world looks to America for leadership and strength in these unstable times.
