  His soul. Which probably wouldn’t even fill a Flawed Varla Stone, let’s face it
context: At this point if he ever wins this vote I’ll consider him more hostage than speaker >
  
  He will literally be the weakest speaker of the house to ever hold that office. >
  
  Everything. Gaetz owns him. They are both pathetic. >
  
  Watch the five or whatever members bring a vote to kick mccarthy out by next week >

  What in the world would change 13 votes in one round? Pretty yellow bellied freedom fighters all the sudden. Talk about political theater. >
  
  One rumor on twitter is that Gaetz is  getting chairmanship of the armed services committee.  Hence the falling out with the senior republication on the committee and his quick turnaround. This would be exactly what would be needed to turn these votes around.  Fairly disastrous for world security, but if it gets the votes what could go wrong, right? >
  
  That slimeball has no business being in the chair of any committee, let alone such a powerful one.  He has no business wielding any power at all, but here we are. >
  
  Something tells me an active child sex trafficking investigation by the DOJ may make getting the necessary security clearance for that role a tad tough.
  At least one would hope. >
  
  I would hope so too, but seeing how little it did to stop Kushner etc from getting his, I’m not holding my breath. >
  
  Kushner had Orange daddy order a clearance. I'm not so certain the new admin would be so.... forgiving. >
  
  Pride. Dignity. Bussy. >
  
  Lots of bussy >
  
  Oh God I hope so. >
  
  I mean, Lindsey Graham can get real lonely sometimes. >
  
  Have the Russians run around Trump and found a new pet? >
  
  Nah, the Fascist Caucasus has always been on the Russian payroll just like the Tea Party was.   
  The point isn't necessarily governing, it's causing as much chaos and problems as possible. Note what cutting defense spending would do; it would reduce the US' ability to fund Ukraine's defense. Wonder who would want that... >
  
  At a time when China is increasing its military budget and Iran and NK are flexing with Russia. It’s a great time to cut military spending in their eyes.
