Jim Jordan for the speaker of the house
Who? Are you crazy? Or maybe you just like to pretend you are. Jim Jordan is going to be expelled from Congress.
Matt Gaetz is the best man for that position
I not recomandet to involve America in the war with hamas at all this is provocation in shadow of russia ¬ deserve to involve because israel have all they need to win let them solve them problems to not risk a new war with true
What is a house speaker again
The Speaker of the House. House of Representatives. She leads the House. The members of the House are called a Caucus. Nancy Pelosi is the first and ONLY woman ever to be elected to Speaker. She has been called by both sides of the aisle as the best Speaker we have had in decades. She gets legislation passed. She is very effective, very professional and very involved in our democracy.
There are no decent republicans left in the party.
Lorraine* but there is his name is Jim Jordan. He’s about the only one I trust that has any integrity and morality left became a politician not to increase his bank account but to serve the American people.
Zero at all
Please because we need to investigate why Biden gave 6 billion dollars along with a return of prisoners. Americans need a full investigation of why he did that. We need paperwork, conversations, just like the did Trump. Be fair.
Put the next in line or a temporary speaker. Vote later. This needs to happen quickly
Y
Trying to make the crap in Israel political
Trump
Lame excuse not to work 😂
The government spends most of their time solving problems they create; and still can’t balance a budget 😂
Just the republikkklans..
@Kevin Kesertwo wings of the same dying bird 🤓🖕
Its easy Trump
We are Israel’s Ally, Israel is hardly Ours.
Its over your head y. Just move on , like we do. Way moe impotent stuff to discuss. ✌️🤛🍼🍔🍔🇺🇸🇺🇸😊
We are in this mess and every other mess because Biden and Obama handing terrorist a boat load of money. There is no more good democrats left. All of them are corrupt and want to destroy this country.
Sure – elect Jim Jordan as Speaker of the House. What a freaking joke. The guy is a major proponent of the “Big Lie” that Trump has the 2020 election “stolen” from him and, indeed, likely was a participant in the conspiracy to overthrow the government of the USA on January 6th, 2020. When real historians look back on this era of American History the Republican Party will be recognized as the group of incompetent traitors that they are.
Psyop to force the GOP to pick another RINO. MAGA or Nothing.
Speaker? Best choice is JimJordan..and for all the good and right reasons..he is a good man and both sides of the isle know it.
Well this is a easy one Jim Jordan end of story
Please stay away from other countries problems we have enough of Our Own.
Wow
Scalise and Jordan should NOT be fighting for the speakership. Whoever has less support needs to step away and throw his support to the other and get this thing done. The Dems and their muslim and communist allies are laughing at the house Republicans.
The House of Representatives is a Mess! See what you get when you elect Republicans! No Plan! No direction! Unable to govern!
It’s terrible the GOPs would place this country in such ridiculous and unacceptable state!
Get someone outside the government
Jim Jordan or trump
It seems like there should have been a plan in place for a speaker. Republicans always always know he’s w to tear things down but know plan to rebuild.
Ca’mon, there is no way Israel didn’t know the attack was coming.. this new war takes eyes off ukraine, Biden’s, Obama and NWO… don’t get distracted!
I was at a retirement seminar and the speaker spoke on how he quit his job after he made well over $950,000 PROFIT within 3months he invested $120,000. I just need creative ideas to afford my retirement
HOW !! I know it’s possible , I would appreciate if you show me how to go about.
Watch out for these democratic anti demoncracy. They will pull the fire alarm to disrupt the voting again.
A bunch of do nothing’s, doesn’t matter if they have a speaker or not. These people have done nothing in three years, except investigating fake allegations into the Biden’s and protecting trump the treasoner. A bunch of do nothings
