  This will make it easier to keep Republican actual crazies off committees when/if the democrats ever get power back. More short term thinking from the crayon eating caucus.
context: This is McCarthy's and the Republican's "revenge" for the House voting to remove Greene and Gosar from their respective committees.
  Greene was pushing QAnon conspiracy theories, including calling Parkland and Sandy Hook "false-flag" operations.
  Gosar tweeted an anime video depicting himself killing AOC and attacking Biden. >
  
  Consequences for horrible behavior are reasons to exact revenge in the modern Republican party. >
  
  They should call a vote for the speakership >
  
  It only takes one member, Ilhan Omar should call for a vote. >
  
  Should be a daily ritual >
  
  McCarthy expected to exact revenge…
  FTFY >
  
  The one good thing or silver lining is that the extreme right is turning voters against themselves due to their very own policies and wishes in such numbers it’s starting to turn things against them. The red wave became the big whimper. One can only hope this trend not only continues but hits them even harder the next election. >
  
  And yet they get elected into office >
  
  Trick will be turning them into an even further minority. Besides voting, I'll just keep my fingers crossed that enough people who are sick of this crap do as well. >
  
  Covid hasn't gone away >
  
  As it turns out neither has measles. >
  
  I forgot about that. I've been vaccinated for that, but for real....when is Bill Gates gonna come finish this? I thought that was part of the deal. >
  
  Well, it would help if more people would remember that there is a vaccine for measles, and it has been quite effective. >
  
  I know. I got the gauntlet when I was a younger guy. >
  
  Since I had an allergy that they prescribed a shot every month and as a 20 yr military retiree I think I've probably had more than most and yet I'm still alive and kicking. >
  
  3 Democrats should trigger the provision vacating the Speaker at right time... >
  
  That power is reserved for members of the majority party under the rules adopted by the 118th Congress, unfortunately. >
  
  The final rules package that was voted in states that is just one member from either party. >
  
  Well, this sent me down a confusing and frustrating rabbit hole, since that's the take that PBS and others have, yet perusing the pdf of the rules package voted on I cannot find that anywhere; naturally it should be the case that any Rep could be recognized and offer up a motion to vacate the chair, but any indication that any Democratic Rep could do so or would be willing to do so has disappeared. There must be a procedural justification for why, which I'm guessing has to do with recognition from the Speaker, but I cannot find it anywhere. >
