"I ask this question seriously. Are we watching the disintegration of the Republican Party in Congress right now?" Yes we are. The Republican Party is more like two separate parties that just don't want to work together. They would rather sabotage each other than to work together.
I remember pundits espousing the demise of the GOP just days before the 2016 election. I think they may have been off by 7 or 8 years, but it seems to be coming.
In sentencing briefs, Portlock’s lawyers acknowledged the backlash it caused their client. "As a result of his involvement in the January 6 riot, his arrest thereafter, and the publicity this case garnered in the community, Mr. Portlock lost a lucrative career at Mitsubishi Motors." - to which we all should say tough shit, loser.
Re: Last night, the Rules Committee was unable to move forward on a border security bill put forward by the Speaker - because of GOP opposition. That is the Speaker’s committee!!
Wait, what?? If this is the new baseline for behavior in the U.S. House, it’s difficult to imagine what a potential Saturday night vote is going to look like. C-SPAN could resemble a WWE match with metal folding chairs.
Seriously - I think it's a big mistake to have the House in on a Saturday night and voting. It won't surprise me if things go off the rails at some point. There is a lot of pent up anger on the Republican side.
I guess Speaker Johnson had a come to Jesus moment about UKR. And it will cost him his job. But unlike McCarthy, I don’t think this his dream job and he’s not willing to sacrifice the world to please Marge.
Thanks again to Jamie for pointing me to Patricia & Greg so i can follow the craziness in Georgia. Seems Republicans don’t like the party picking candidates versus the voters. Crazy Caucus has a stranglehold everywhere!
“For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Matthew 6:21, NIV)
Ukraine and Israel are *both* literally fighting evil. It is a mistake for the wealthiest nation on the planet to argue about funds for one over the other.
Speaker Johnson does not seem comfortable. First, he was speaker because it was God’s will, then he traveled to Mar-a-largo to kiss the ring and now he is a Regan Republican. What’s next Goldwater?

Yeah, Thoughts and Prayers...
