  I … would be careful about joking about a fight. Someone will report you for advocating for violence.
context: Oh PLEASE someone screw this up. >
  
  I can't believe I'm rooting for gaetz and boebert lol. This is fun >
  
  The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy and its hilarious that they're enemies with people they think are their friends. >
  
  As a radical centrist, I'm just excited for the impending political realignment that's going to happen when/if the GOP ceases to be a viable political party >
  
  Wtf is a radical centrist >
  
  Someone who goes super left(Universal Healthcare full stop) and yet super right(gun rights). Source: I hold both positions but Register as a Democrat(used to be an Independent) >
  
  You've just described every socialist so I think that definition needs another pass. >
  
  I think you need to reevaluate "socialist" there... >
  
  The word has lost absolutely all meaning in the United States. >
  
  How can anyone have confidence in a 14 time loser. Our country is a punch line. >
  
  Other countries don’t do this. We just barely understand what’s going on tbh. >
  
  Something I have to remind myself of, is that we were the first. Noone had ever done a major government like ours before. And we made some mistakes that hampered our ability to reform and improve the processes. Other countries learned from our mistakes. >
  
  15th times the charm >
  
  It's looking like it. >
  
  They flipped Biggs to oresent >
  
  Like my grandmother used to say: "If something doesn't work 14 times, then it'll probably, definitely work the 15th time.". Now I understand what she meant. Finally. >
  
  Words to live by, truly :) >
  
  Truer words have been said >
  
  SINO
  Speaker In Name Only. 
  He will have no real power. >
  
  SIOO: Speaker In Office Only >
  
  SICKO: for obvious reasons :P >
  
  Yes..Ha..ha..ha..yes >
  
  “If at first you don’t succeed, kiss Matt Gaetz’s ass.” -Kevin McCarthy >
  
  “Someone always has a pair of ass cheeks and I have a pair of lips”  
  -kEvin McCarthy probably >
  
  Such a pathetic clown show of low-watt goons who have no clue the damage they've just done to this country. The sheer volume of scary shit McCarthy has promised the freedom psychos will be jaw dropping when finally made clear. Who in their right mind votes for these monsters? >
  
  if you saw how a fight almoat broke out... Are you surprised? >
  
  I'm not surprised. I'm exhausted by their idiocy. >
  
  That's my congressman! Nobody beats a Kern County man 15 times in a row! We may lose once, or twice, or thrice, or force, or  fivce, or sixce, or sevence, or eightces, or ninces, or tences, or elevences, or tweleveces, or thirteences, fourteences, but never and I mean NEVER fifteences. >
  
  the fifteences time’s the charm is what my granny always yelled >
  
  I'm so ashamed of my district... Sorry to all of my fellow Americans, I vote against him, but it's just like pissing to try to put out a forest fire, where all the trees are asking to be burned. >
  
  Biggs present, done. >
  
  I was wondering. Is that all he needed? >
  
  Yes, hes up one now. >
  
  Literally staring at the Capitol building from my hotel window as we speak. Do you think there's gonna be a firework show like when a baseball player hits a home run? Will report back.
  Edit. No such luck. Boo. >
  
  Check for white smoke >
  
  No I think in this case it’s brown. >
  
  How are these people going to ever pass a debt ceiling increase, this is going to be chaos >
  
  House Republicans are going to be fighting nonstop the next two years but I would think a debt ceiling increase would pass, because wouldn't that get Democrat votes as well? >
  
  Unfortunately, the Hastart rule dictates you can only pass things if your party can pass it without votes from the other party. So, McCarthy won't even bring it to the floor if he need Dem votes >
  
  "The Hastert Rule is an informal rule and the Speaker is not bound by it; they may break it at their discretion" from Wikipedia >
  
  Yes, but now if he breaks it he can have a single caucus member challenge his speakership. So, he'll never do it. >
  
  Any single person can now challenge his speakership too lol >
  
  Hopefully all of these theatrics makes it harder for them to gut social security, medicare and medicaid, but I doubt it. >
  
  Well yeah.  They'll have a block who keeps voting no for things because they aren't extreme enough. >
  
  Once a Speaker is chosen, McCarthy will have given so much power away to these MAGA Republicans, they will be running the show.  
  These are Republicans who supported Trump’s efforts to overturn a US election and who voted against impeaching Trump for inciting a violent attack on our US Capitol.  They care more about chaos and clicks than governing for The People.
  It may be the end of the Speaker vote but it is the beginning of Republican investigations, going on Fox News to rail against the federal government, and a disastrous outcome for the next debt ceiling vote.  Surely, we will have McCarthy to thank for a default because he handed the keys to the House to these MAGA Republicans.  
  As Steve Bannon said in 2017, their goal is and always has been deconstruction of the administrative state. >
  
  The entire republican conference will vote on committee chairs. 
  There’s a good chance that knives are still coming out. >
  
  I'm half expecting the Chaos Caucus to immediately turn on McCarthy when they inevitably don't get every single committee assignment, triggering 15 more votes over whether or not he's allowed to sit in the big chair. >
  
  Since one of the concessions is one person can bring forth a motion to vacate speaker seat, couldn't a never Kevin person just constantly troll the house and call it over and over with 0 legal repercussions? Obviously they lose any favor to work together, but I feel they're just politicking as a brand, not to actually do anything, so being "the lady who trolled weak Republicans" who got a fox news job is more appealing than being "the lady who was a far right house member" >
  
  Pretty much. He is an idiot for consenting to that. >
  
  How can he be held to that, though? >
  
  He's gotta get it this time, right? Right? >
  
  Only needs to flip 1 more. Gave up everything so far. He’s pathetic >
  
  This is the best reality show ever. Dramatic start, Gaetz goes missing. Bobo the clown was told to shut up by her mom. Alabama almost threw hands. And there was a clock that got to zero and then all of a sudden there were like a bunch of people that swapped sides. 
  Subscribed. >
  
  Looks like he’s won. But he’s going to be pathetically weak & this mess so far all but guarantees the next 2 years will get little done. >
  
  And the only things they’ll get done will be harmful >
  
  Investigating Hunter Biden’s laptop isn’t a good thing?! (Sarcasm) >
  
  On Monday I made fun of Kornacki’s Big Board being used for a Speaker of the House election, but tonight completely flipped me! It definitely helped. >
  
  This would be the master troll of all trolls if Gaetz fucks McCarthy likes he does underage children across state lines >
  
  Is Matt Gaetz holding out for armed services (military) committee chair? That would give a criminally investigated and potentially easily compromised member of Congress access to military secrets, including those about Ukraine. Is that what this holdup is about? Does Putin have an hand in this chaos? >
  
  From another source, "I'm running out of things to ask for." >
  
  I hope they add  another no vote. That would really fuck with him. >
  
  Will a fight break out this time?...
