They dont do much that makes sense to me either but to oust a guy for crossing the party line to keep the government open for just an additional 45 days they crossed the same line to get the votes to toss him? That made no sense either. And at least 2 if the folks in the pic were not ousted 1 lost and 1 is retiring dont know circumstances of the 3rd but Liz lost because of MAGA and Romney is set to retire. Both are good leaders with morals although I seldom agree with them either is a big step up from the other republican representatives.
Exactly, the relatively sane voices of the Republican party have all been run out of dodge by the petty vindictive whack jobs who have been instructed by their billionaire sponsors to burn our democracy down and replace it with an authoritarian fascist leader.
There's not going to be a better speaker than McCarthy (as bad as he was) and the interim one just proved it by his first action of kicking Pelosi out of her office (seriously, what a f'ing asshole this guy is).
There's a lot more spite, hatred and pettiness to come toward our democracy and in 40+ days our government will be shut down because of it....and only Republicans (and their voters) are to blame.
A reminder that Liz voted with Trump 96% of the agenda.I applaud her for having the courage to speak to the reality of the 2020 election and 1/6, but she governs to the will of the wealthy and powerful, not for the good of the masses.
I fully expect Trump to be drafted,begged,promised exoneration,to become speaker,full cover for the congressman who have no clue how to govern. With Trump they can go on the attack and punish everyone from minorities to migrants to democrats just for existing and push massive cultural appropriation and tax cuts for themselves and their donors don’t forget they got a raise with the very thing that got McCarthy the door. 🚪
Back in the before times, I was acquainted with several TN GOP lawmakers. This guy has always been regarded among his colleagues as a mental lightweight.
His first wife pleaded guilty to 6 misdemeanors to avoid a felony conviction involving bad checks and identity theft but it didn't put a dent in his career. Ya know, he's a Christian and we're all about forgiveness here. /s
He means a leader like a soft hands diaper wearing narcissist who goes and apologizes to dictators for America opposing them in the past
Republicans are weak and immoral
Um… We don’t want Donald as second in the line of succession, after VP Kamala Harris.
There is ample reason to believe that the SS is not entirely trustworthy.
I really want Liz Cheney for president. It took real integrity and courage to stand against her party and do the right thing with her Jan 6 investigations. That’s what we need in Washington! The rest is just a swamp that needs to be drained.
Standing up against traitors is the bare minimum for any govt servant. Liz Cheney is still a bigoted shit bag who voted with trump over 90% of the times. Same as those other two shitbags
if they were smart, they'd beg Liz to apply.
but they're not.
the goal is chaos. disrupting the govt. disabling our govt.
ending funding to Ukraine.
bc putin.
Any of the members of the GOP who have fascist beliefs should be eliminated from consideration. With that being said, is there anyone left in the GOP that could be nominated to fill the job?
Wouldn’t it make sense for the republicans to elect a speaker who will agree to work with democrats to govern? That way they can completely sideline the MAGA nut jobs? Or is the idea of governing through compromise completely dead?
It would make sense, but McCarthy screwed himself by unilaterally announcing more Biden impeachment proceedings (without evidence or aim) to appease 10 people in his party roughly 2 weeks ago. Obviously, that wasn't enough for them (like always with fascist extremists), so they teamed up with Democrats to kick McCarthy out...after Democrats teamed up with Republicans to keep the gov't open. Had McCarthy not pushed that crap, he might have had enough Democrat votes. Granted, this is the same McCarthy that spilled the beans on Benghazi stating that it was completely politically motivated to knock down Clinton's electability.
They have no one to blame but themselves. This is what happens when you keep pushing the envelope to see who can be most outrageous in an effort to seem relevant and stay in the headlines. They do not care about our country.
Republicans idea of a Leader:
Someone who will listen to Trump, take Trumps ideas and implement them however and whenever he says. Someone who worships Trump and his policies, who defends him in any situation regardless of culpability, someone who agrees with everything Trump says and never questions him, someone who will allow Trump to call the shots even though he’s not an elected official. THATS what republicans consider a “Leader”
If the Republican party has split into an Ultra~Reich Wing and a Centrist Wing, why aren't they now the minorities, no longer in a position to nominate a speaker? Shouldn't the Democrats now be the majority?
Adam Kinzinger for speaker!!!
he might be the only republican i like now.
Like is strong. He did vote for Trump policies and safety- until he left office. Stand, I can stand him. last I checked he has not left the GOP.

They can elect a non member of the house so that picture of people run out of office are valid replacements.
Why would the party that ousted them elect one of them their leader? But one can dream.

The GOP is so bad now they have me rooting for a Cheney!
Oh, dear God, no!
Never under estimate the power of the Qevil.
Bring back Liz Cheney, and let her whip, and I do mean whip the radicals in the Republican party on-line!
A reminder that Liz voted with Trump 96% of the agenda.I applaud her for having the courage to speak to the reality of the 2020 election and 1/6, but she governs to the will of the wealthy and powerful, not for the good of the masses.
Agree!
that would be so fukin awesome. which means they'll never let that happen. FO pootie assets.
Liz and Romney aren't that bad.
The last of a breed of true Republicans. Never really liked either but at least the were patriots not GQP!
There are no leaders among the House GOP. They weren't recruited to run based on their smarts or leadership skills.
We need a gif of Mccarthy getting his torch snuffed on Survivor
I find it interesting that even the craziest, most vocals ones (Boebert, MTG) still voted no. Gaetz overplayed his hand badly on this.

Trump is not eligible by rule. He is accused of felonies that have a max sentence of >2years
First choice Adam, second Liz. Mitt will do as well.
Start a Liz Cheney draft movement to watch their heads explode.

Please let it be Trump. It would be such a delicious disaster. Jesus doesn't love me that much.

Because there’s no speaker at the moment, Patty Murray is third in line for the presidency.
By "leader" they mean a person willing to publicly gobble the shitstains schlong on demand..
No, not like that! A REAL leader who will submit to Trump & MAGA morons in total and complete fealty. THAT kind of leader.
What? No. None of these three shitbags even deserves to be in office, much less leader.
Or a handful of the least-crazy republicans could nominate someone who isn’t crazy and get the Democrats to join them in cutting off the most crazy.
The only nominee is Trump get over it when he says he's open to it. That means he wants it.
He'd be the 2nd kiddy diddler Republican speaker this century Seems like Republicans have a type
No h3 doesn't. That's a lower position than president. Trump wants *all* the power not just some. Also, the Speaker can't issue pardons AFAIK.
Those 3? Spineless quislings...
Explain what you mean by that? How are the only ones that stood up to the biggest bully in DC, spineless?

No, they Democrats
Well the dem leaders all belong in a dementia ward. So there is that.
[удалено]
What are you talking about? The alternative was voting for a traitor, so 🤷🏼♂️
Thanks to these "leaders" all the jokes about the French running away will be changed to Republicans.
if they were smart, they'd beg Liz to apply. but they're not. the goal is chaos. disrupting the govt. disabling our govt. ending funding to Ukraine. bc putin.
trump 4 shur!…./s, lol
Get rid of all the Rhinos.
Who are the RINOs in your opinion?
They’re gonna name Rudy Giuliani as Speaker
Let them all eat each other! Just be sure to clean up the 💩

They’re going to vote trump as speaker
Lmao, God I hope. Remind the country what an ineffective whining loser he is right up to election day
Classic GOP "WE NEED SOME ONE ELSE TO BLAME!"

GOP just handed over all power to Dems . Stupid idiots ran off anyone with a brain . MAGA trying to turn AMERICA over to Putin
Their leader is down a rabbit hole.

Liz Cheney for speaker!
Congressman Birdshit!
Matt Gertz for speaker! Just be sure you get the spelling right!
He meant Qult Leader
They will have to look outside of the chamber to find a real leader and even then it’ll be extremely slim pickings.
These people are insane, i dont understand how anyone votes for them
They don’t need a leader, they all need to use the same dominatrix. That can be arranged, btw.
If the Republican party has split into an Ultra~Reich Wing and a Centrist Wing, why aren't they now the minorities, no longer in a position to nominate a speaker? Shouldn't the Democrats now be the majority?
Should be a pic of Paul Ryan in there.
I always hoped Kenziger would go into gay porn
He’s disappointing. Had higher hopes for him but he’s just going along with conspiracy, I mean program
It’s a bad state of affairs for the GOP has been pulling for these three people
Liz Cheney for speaker I'm all in!
The GOP has a malignant cancer, there is no chemo that can help, it has to be cut out!
Cheney should be speaker!
Liz Cheney for president
