Stop Sabotaging McCarthy’s Bid to be Speaker

Here’s the grand plan of the five members of the “Freedom Caucus”:

Step 1. Rather than hit the ground running after four years out of power in the House, deny party leader Kevin McCarthy the speakership by a handful of votes.

Step 2. ???

Maybe Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) thinks he can step forward and bully and badger his colleagues into accepting him as an alternative despite commanding the minority of a minority of a caucus. More likely, they’ll just be happy to get on television.

  • Horseshit. If “Gutless” McCarthy wins the vote, NOTHING will be done for us. He will side with the DemocRAT-Communist Party against pro-MAGA and pro-Trump people like he has in the past. I vote NO on McCarthy and those of his ilk. Remember, the AP under the picture of McCarthy above now stands for American Pravda.
