Nobody in DC wants any sort of extended gridlock. It would expose just how unnecessary most of the bureaucracy really is.

We have been subsidizing the US production of mohair since 1954. How many of you have a single article of apparel made of goat hair?

I disagree. Every single House D voted with the Crazy 8 to kick out McCarthy. They all knew exactly what they were doing. And they all knew it would cause total chaos in the House.

Hmmm. Jan 6th, the soon former POTUS was excoriated the wannabe SOTH. Hmmm the Ds help the Possum Breathe former SOTH get the CR over the finish line. The Possum Breath former SOTH, less than 18 hours after the Yeas.. threw the Ds under the bus. Soooo you expect what?!?! The chaos was not caused by the Ds chum. Oh, btw, who acquiesced to the single vote to vacate?

And I agree with McConell. The GOP or anybody who believes people can unilaterally motion a removal vote serves no one.

Kevin’s ego outran his intellect. Leveraging annual budgets 40% above salary is not finance. It’s fraud. Next.

Mexico will pay for it.

Sure, if you don’t mind payment in the form of high test chimichangas & Corona.

Well I'm glad this is a political forum now.

The fed is on track to shutdown on the 18th, unless another CR is passed. Certain people in the house might be willing to let it happen.

Article says FAA is affected, although I thought their CR went until the end of the year.

But either way, Homeland is impacted, so TSA not getting paid...

NPR this morning talked about the Speaker's proposal being palatable to Democrats in the house and that they would need their vote. I think Schumer might entertain it too. It's funny because his proposal is losing support in the GOP and would need Dem support to pass which is part of why McCarthy got ousted.
