  I almost wish I hadnt tuned in. I got to see mccarthy lose again in real time though, so I got that going for me
context: Chaotic, selfish and incapable of leadership.....this really sums it up. >
  
  i don't know about incapable. because that implies intention, but failing.
  they don't want to lead. they choose to disrupt, to be chaotic evil, to do whatever they're after (it's honestly indecipherable what these clowns want) but one thing is for sure: they're not there to govern. >
  
  I dunno. I think they started as being unwilling to lead. But after years of eschewing policy making for political theatre, corruption, rewarding the stupidest and most loyal members of the Party and punishing the smartest, they’re largely left with nuts like Greene and Bobert running the show. So now they’re staring off the edge of a historical/demographic cliff, and they’re too dumb or “in deep” to do anything about it. >
  
  How old is this? There’s been more than 11 votes by now. >
  
  It also says 'adjourn till Friday afternoon', which... it's already Friday evening. Definitely seems old. >
  
  And I think they’re not coming back til like 10pm eastern (although I may have my time zones mixed up) 😂 >
  
  Maybe? Not sure, I don't think I've seen anything on when they return, but I haven't seen anything on them doing so yet. Think it's around 9 PM there now though. >
  
  This feels more like r/leopardsatemyface every day it happens. >
  
  Way outdated. 13 failed votes, then adjourned until tonight at 10:00 pm EDT. Vox claims that Gaetz and others say they got what they wanted and think that there'll be a Speaker as of vote 14, but we'll see. >
  
  Makes sense that Matt gaetz would lose interest at 14 >
  
  Fucking brutal. >
  
  McCarthy will trade democracy for the title of speaker, his only fight now is how much power he will wield at the end. >
  
  “There’s two people I think Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump, swear to God..." >
  
  Funny how quickly these articles are outdated. >
  
  Well, when you're clinging to old axioms and misinterpreted bullshit, you might be susceptible to disingenuous malarkey and continue to believe that Republucans can govern in a civil fashion, regardless of what the clear fucking evidence being drawn before your eyes tells you. >
  
  It’s all in the rules.   The clerk is actually the presiding officer till members-elect elect the speaker and folks get sworn in. >
  
  “Incapable of leadership” is a massive understatement. >
  
  On the money Rep. Jayapal…and this is what is keeping awake at night >
  
  How ‘bout counter productive, self destructive, kamikaze clown show. >
  
  Sure! Just turn on CNN to watch it live. >
  
  “Everyone knows this was all a bunch of Antifa pretending to be Republicans who snuck into Congress to make us look bad!”
  -Republicans in a week, probably >
  
  The obstructionist party of no is obstructing themselves. Seems fitting >
  
  A kindergarten class has their shit together better than republicans do. >
  
  Cons are a lesser McCarthy.
