Scalise nominated Speaker

I see where you're going, TOP.

The good people of Ohio would understandably rather keep their perverts in DC.
As speaker, Shirtsleeves Jimmy would come home less often, right?

You need more like Dennis Kucinich, formerly from the 10th,
and fewer like Jim Jordan, currently from the 4th;
but that's for you folks to work out.:dunno:

We do have some things to work out here but nothing to do with any of them;) hope you're having a better day than you were at 5:00 this morning...

Right. Instead he wouldn't schedule votes that the majority would want. It's stupid to pretend your Ds would elect an R to fill that role when they had a slim majority. I get why republicans won't vote for Hakeem just like I get when they do have a vote and there are the two options that Democrats won't vote for the republicans. What I don't get is your Ds joining with Maga Republicans to oust a speaker who is only up for that vote because he worked with Democrats.

The Democrats voted with those evil "Maga Republicans" to punish the Speaker for working with Democrats. That vote was silly. It won't net them the Speaker role, all it did was ensure that the next Speaker is more likely to not want to work with Democrats as Democrats will just help the crazies "punish" him when they get the chance.

If you do not believe the Republicans would have 100% done the exact same thing, you are cuckoo for Cocoa puffs.

Hopefully he won't have to give Gaetz a "one vote" to oust the speaker deal. That was stupid.

I see no way around that, if they want to elect him with only Republican votes.

That requirement by the hard derp right was so they could control McCarthy and make sure he could not make deals with Dems, without consequence. I doubt the hard right will let Scalise do that.

What I do know is that the Democrats who say they want compromise and for folks to reach across the aisle, had someone that reached across that aisle testing that water, and at the very first opportunity that they had to show what their real intentions are they voted with the folks they say are "crazy" to punish him for taking that step.

The House is in “recess subject to the call of the chair,” which means that McHenry, the interim speaker, can bring the chamber back into session when Republicans figure out what they intend to do regarding the vote. Other than that, no business is being conducted.

They are outside playing kick ball.

Another day goes by where the Republican house is taking no action, they can’t even condemn what happened in Israel. They are dysfunctional, MAGA has brought the business to a halt!.
