#GOP #Republicans #House
Time for Trump!!!!😊
Dear Americans, why do you still vote Republican?
Does this make the US the world’s largest NGO?
Why don’t the Democrats attempt that and hope a few republicans jump on board? They only need 5 republicans I believe, to make it happen.
Jim Jordan a clown. If I was a rep I wouldn’t give him my votes either.
The plan is to shoe-horn Jordan in. The most extreme of the Republicans are making a big play, and I think this will come back to haunt them.
Granting temporary powers would be dumb. Just elect him as speaker.
10 19 2023
That’s just showing you who is willing to go against the constitution and those demanding it be followed.
You don’t change the constitution to suite you. That’s what traitors do
Jeffries has total party support, republitards can’t agree on a candidate, just give Jeffries the job and move on. He’ll have the job in a year anyway when a lot of the right gets voted out
No Jefferies for Speaker. Not another Democrat.
The GOP should make No deals with the Democrats to make Jefferies Speaker.
Come on people vote for Jim already
Why? He’s a January 6th traitor who’s never sponsored a single bill that’s passed in his entire term in Congress. He’s a loudmouth POS extremist and is unfit to govern.
I assume gym jordan direcred max the gimp gaetz to vote out the Speaker
The 2024 election has so much fuel for the democrats. They need to hit the campaign trail using every failure of the Republicans against them.
Jesus Christ the Republican Party is falling apart
Good, that’s what they get for being so divisive. It’s like watching British parliament
Zombies 👆👇
The congress majority is running the biggest welfare scam in history.
Come on GOP do your darn job. You have a temporary speaker now. Put McHenry to work give him more power. Stop delaying.
How is it possible for this process to be SO inept?
And to hear republicans blaming democrats for the speaker-less house is ridiculous. The majority blaming the minority for picking the majority leader is incredible
Thank you 🙏
What does the house if reps look like? 435 🤡
Structure
Seats 435 voting members 6 non-voting members 218 for a majority
Political groups Majority (221) Republican (221) Minority (212) Democratic (212) Vacant (2) Vacant (2)
You still not get the reason you never saw this before is because it was the uni party meaning they all do the same thing wake up
MAGAts are STILL having a temper tantrum because #45 lost the 2020 election.
McConnell had no trouble passing everything that #45 wanted, ignoring all that debt, but after he lost majority power, when Biden wants something, ‘This is reckless spending and needs to be considered.’
Cut their pay until they get their 💩 together and make it happen. This is bs.
Republicans always causing unnecessary crisis. .. including trump ..the party of chaos
Good! No need for funding for wars.
There ain’t gonna be no empowering a temp speaker. This is leadership 101. Lead, Follow or Get out of the way. The Republicans have demonstrated that they cannot lead.
Republicans have demonstrated that they cannot follow. (If they could they would have elected their nominee in one take)
They must get out of the way and allow five Republicans to put country over party and vote with the Democrats for Hakeem Jefferies.
We had a robust economy until MAGA came along and attacked our democracy. We had a vibrant economy because we had democracy, not in spite of it.
They deserve this for accepting and supporting MAGA garbage all these years thinking it meant guaranteed power.
Liz Cheney for Speaker
Despicable threatening Republicans who threatens anybody who doesn’t agree with them.
The GOP has been paid to do nothing and destroy as much as they can. The script is playin out perfectly for them.
Who needs the Russians to subvert the US when the US is already so effective at subverting itself. 😢
No one is talking about Hakeem Jefferies losing speaker vote 18 times to date.
The difference is that one party has the majority and shouldve voted someone in the first time around
@Darkithna mgedrfI disagree. It’d of been nice for all of them to vote Jim, but as it turns out the uniparty doesn’t want that. Only the real republicans do. It just helps us know who the rinos are
They and their idol Trump did this and I love it!!
It feels like the GOP is doing everything at their disposal to have a non working government
Too many corrupt politicians in both parties is the problem.
NBC SUCKS. PUSHING THAT BS!!! FAKE NEWS
It’s rhino hunting season.
Who wants that geek as a speaker
As it should be. This little weasel would make a majority republican house a house led by democrat communists.
Republicans want Jordan
Breaking News Arab Nations will cut oil supplies to America and Israel if Humanitarian Aid for Palestine
It’s nice to see the Republican Party and the MAGA movement bringing people together.
No oil for the West
I’m loving watching this circus. Pass the popcorn! 😂
Government shutdown means people will not be getting their paychecks. This circus needs to end.
The Republican Party is making a lot of people who have guns, hate them.
They have found a very thick wall and they enjoy smacking their heads against it. The more they do it. The more stupid they are.
I’m done with both parties, neither one has our best interests in mind and are not for we the people. I changed to Independent or I will vote Libertarian instead. At least they all have exposed their true colors with any consolation.
She asked about Dems & he answered about Republicans ???
Thanks Don Bacon, and Matt Geist, are your diapers full.
Well, on the upside we aren’t giving away billions.
GOP is embarrassing everyone man. Joke
They are not going to elect Jeffries the Republicans are not going to put a democrat in position as speaker of the house period. That would be only democrats in office so we might as will say we have no rights and are a communist country
Too Bad
What’s going on with the idiots in the “Grand Ole Party”? Just plain stupidity in our Congress and the need to get their heads out of their sphincter’s and think about what they’re going to do to get this country back on track.
What a fiasco…smh
Sadly, many Republicans I know don’t even know about this.
Who wears bow ties.. oh yeah, mothef rucker ..before Jon made fun of it and he decided he it didn’t identify him with his base.
So why dont GOP just vote for him to actually be speaker? This is so stupid
Republicans continuing to embarrass themselves…
These idiots should not be getting paid right now. Just like the rest of us wouldn’t be. Corrupt idiots in our government.
He’s one weird looking guy
So Republicans control the House, but somehow are still blaming Democrats for THEM not being able to agree on a Speaker. They can’t get their acts together and they don’t want to take any accountability for a clownshow of their own making.
Meanwhile legislative progress is at a standstill. Number 1 priority next election is making sure the GOP controls no parts of Congress.
Here we go again, Republican party. Unable to govern kicking a can down the road again. Just like they did with numerous spending bills. The Republican party has got to stop thinking about and country first party last but that’ll never happen. This show every american that’s a republican party is unable to govern❓️❓️❓️❓️10 19 23 ❓️❓️❓️❓️
No more parties games…we are first independents…that Replulic. ..not demaacary ran by the left.wokes..wake up.all…..just.WA…now with.Inslee
Good! Anyone as petty as this guy, DOES NOT, deserve to even be interim speaker!
Vote in Jeffries. Ask to split power 60-40. Make Jeffries Speaker role. Give Dems 40% power and keep majority power.
Shut the government down so the democrats and republicans can join the circus and sell peanuts
Hahaha how are they going to blame this on Dems? MAGA literally holding the House hostage!
Aww. Mister gavel smash isn’t going to get full power. No fun. Lolololol
George Santos is the only man for the job.
Sweet bowtie though.
Finally something that makes sense 😆
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Because no one knows him and he happens to be one of the most subscribers to sick right wing ideology. The Repugs can’t find a decent Speaker,, because they don’t have one.
Wouldn’t it be a miracle if the GOP put the US of A ahead of themselves and voted for Hakeem Jeffries.
Vote trudope
They only want someone who will stop investigating trump.
The GOP is going extinct and they know it. They refuse to evolve and adapt with the rest of us. They even sold their souls, when they bowed down to that orange PAB, to try and stop it. Now, we’re ALL paying the price
What is next? Who knows. They are all strange.
All those guys gotta do is find a centrist and make the position more like the Speaker of the British Parliament. They’ll win both Republican and Democratic support
McHenry is not the man job he’s with the deep State and with the lobbyist 😡😡 Jim Jordan is the man ❤❤🙌🙌
No McCarthy….. No McHenry….. May as well just pick McDonalds!
This is all a set up to give away billions of our dollars to other countries. WE HAVE NO MORE TO GIVE.
Funny you all say Congress in inept but you ignore the dementia ridden President dragging us into WW3.
Republicans might have to seriously consider filing an official request for political separation, from Democrats. IF anything is to ever get done, ever again??? Entirely possible.
It’s no longer the Republican party, its the fascist party.
The people want Jim Jordan!!
but, they still havent asked… anyone
Jim Jordan was an architect of the 2013 shutdown 👈 Real truth facts
Jim Jordan= complete fraudsters just like trumpfy and Santos 👈🤮
Wow really? So Gym Jordan’s plan to hold the country hostage is a bridge too far. Don’t they know that a certain Psyche Vampire is going to be very upset. And His so-called Pastor too.
Why stop …?
I think its unfair.
Because it took McCarthy several times of voting rounds before he became house speaker .
McCarthy was kick off the seat as house speeaker and scalice dropped out and there is one more individual that received a vote.
How crazy ….let Jordan in like the rest because not everyone is a perfect speaker.
Message to Republicans: Elect a Speaker immediately or resign en masse. You are incompetent; an embarrassment and a disgrace to the offices that you hold!
This is a bunch of B’s. They want Democrat Jeffrey’s in.its all a clown show. Vote Jim Jordan in or close the government Down.
All of a sudden I miss Nancy.
Is McHenry going to have another childish fit and break the gavel? Or maybe he’ll just soil his diaper this time.
俗话说：“人在做，天在看。”其实人在做，不只天在看，人也在看。尽管中共善于造假欺骗，但中共建政后的所作所为，包括现今共产党体制下的贪污腐败、严密监控、迫害异己、甚至活摘器官等等恶行乱象，全中国的百姓也都在看。一起来了解这群中国人到底看到了甚么，他们为何不约而同的选择声明退出中共的党、团、队？
老党员：中共祸国殃民 必招天灭
现居河北的郭玉然是一位有30多年党龄的村支书、村主任，他见证了中共从建党至今所有整人害人的运动。
他在退党声明中写到：“我今年八十多岁了，经历了中共的历次整人害人的运动，如：三反五反，反右文革，八九六四大屠杀，江泽民九九年又残酷迫害法轮功，还活摘他们的器官贩卖，干出这种伤天害理之事实，老百姓都知道他在位是没干一件好事 ，却培养出一批贪污腐败分子，尽做一些祸国殃民的勾当，遭来天怒人怨，如今天要灭他，善恶有报是天理。”
细数着中共的倒行逆施，真的是天怒人怨，罄竹难书。回顾过往，历历在目，令人不寒而栗。但郭玉然相信，善恶有报是天理，他在退党声明中坚决的表明了自己的立场。
“我自愿坚决退出中共邪恶的党组织，做一个干净的炎黄子孙，在天灭中共时保个平安。”
据历史学家统计，中共历年发动的三反五反、大跃进、文革、六四学运等等，造成大约8千万中国人的非自然死亡。尤其目前还在发生的活摘贩卖新疆人、法轮功学员的器官，都是天理不容的残酷恶行。
So this just shows how the US government works. One side cannot work with the other… period. Thats what they are showing everyone in the World.
Looks to me like the Republicans are stalling to stop Biden’s $100 billion aid package to Ukraine and Israel. For the rest of the world, looks like the US government is dysfunctional.
AWAKE!
