If U Seek Amy Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 At this point regardless of your political affiliation and views, how you can support the Republican party with their inability to form any sense or order and control shows they do not deserve to have control of the House right now. They are a disaster for the US until they get it in order and it is hurting everyone 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what happens when the Republican establishment lets the extremists take over the party, and it’s only going to get worse down the line too.

Right 💀 If this was Dems or anyone else I’d be equally pissed. Grow tf up and work with the other side and figure it out if you don’t have unification in your own party. Stop just throwing the same sure losses at it and hoping and wasting everyone’s time. It is insane to me every day Americans at work will collaborate with coworkers they don’t like and deal with it to get work done and these people are supposed to be our leaders and refuse. This is just another reason why there needs to be hard term limits in Congress (meaning never being able to run again ever for Congress). They’re more concerned with preserving their seat with their party than doing wtf the country needs them to do 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 90%+ of Americans would be in favor of it, and it’s one those few issues that everyone outside of congress can say “yeah, a no brainer” along with banning stocks trading in congress and generally getting $$ out of politics (even though oddly enough, democrats have been benefitting more with $$ in politics as their voting demographics have changed), but republicans opened those floodgates with citizens United Edited October 19, 2023 by Bears01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congress definitely has too much power imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VOSS Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Quote GOP Rep. Jim Jordan's office said the third round of voting for House speaker will take place Friday morning at 10 a.m., and two hours earlier, at 8 a.m., Jordan will be holding a news conference. The Ohio Republican is pressing on with his bid to become the next speaker of the House after a plan he supported to temporarily empower the interim speaker was met with opposition from his fellow GOP lawmakers on Thursday. The Ohio Republican said he wanted to "talk with the 20 individuals who voted against me so that we can move forward and begin to work for the American people." He met with the holdouts on Capitol Hill, and said the party is "trying to get unified as soon as we can." But there was no sign that he had changed any minds during the meeting. Rep. Carlos A. Giménez, one of Jordan's detractors, said he hasn't moved on his position. "We're still in the same spot. He doesn't have the votes to be speaker." Source Curious to see what he'll say at this press conference... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
