How do Republicans hand victory to a party as contemptible as Democrats? Biased media and academia.

 

How Democrats can control Republican leadership  . . ."If nothing gives, will the 123rd session of the House of Representatives see a coalition government?  Can Steve Scalise or another candidate gallop in as a dark horse?  Or will the swamp be swampy and reach some other sort of compromise?  Your guess is as good as mine, but too much delay doesn't reflect well on the GOP's ability to govern.  Lead, follow, or get out of the way."

The bid for House Speaker is looking more and more like a soap opera   . . ."McCarthy's primary detractors were the Freedom Caucus, who think he is part of the problem, the swamp, and not of the solution.

"The group is led by Representative Andy Biggs of Arizona, who has put himself forward as an alternative.  Biggs received 10 votes in the first round, while nine Republicans backed other candidates.tative Andy Biggs of Arizona, who has put himself forward as an alternative.  Biggs received 10 votes in the first round, while nine Republicans backed other candidates."

Reality bites: We don't currently have a House of Representatives  . . ."No serious person that I’m aware of actually believes that this situation will go on indefinitely. But if it lasts too much longer some serious threats to the nation’s stability will begin to loom on the horizon. For one thing, as was pointed out by The Hill last night, if the current majority can’t even manage to name a Speaker, what will happen when they vote on the debt limit later this year? If they similarly deadlock on that, we will quickly hit the country’s spending limit. After that, America would begin to default on its debts and the entire economy would quickly collapse in response.". . . 

Media, Democrats Now Comparing Boring Speaker’s Race to Capitol Riot, January 6    . . ."I’d be willing to bet the farm that, unless you happened to come across a conservative who is dedicated to reading independent media (like The Political Insider!), you will be told by these random Americans that a mob killed several police officers that day. 

"That is patently false. 

"And yet, because “President” Biden, Democrats, and media outlets keep repeating a blatant falsehood, Americans believe it. They act and vote accordingly. 

"It matters."
