That's the way the founders wanted it. Pay was intended to be per diem.
Speaker McCarthy, is no longer speaker of the house.

I don't even trust the founders anymore. Our government has been corrupt since it was nothing more than an idea.
It was, people even wanted a King. The concept of what the founders did was amazing and the foresite astounding.
Was the Constitution perfect? No but it was a great starting point that I think was missing a couple of ideas.
The biggest point the founders ever made was, if you can keep it. They knew the idea of this country would only work if it was run by just and moral people. We are not that anymore.

Washington saying "no, 2 terms is enough" was such an amazing thing.
Not to take away from the rest of them at all, but the power was his alone for the taking, and to have the integrity to turn it down was just something that you don't see.
And then the fact that the rest respected that all the way up until Roosevelt. Purely amazing.

This whole shit-show is disgusting. Those so called Republican holdouts should be at the very least, face primary challenges and striped of any position of authority they may hold at this time. Jordan or someone like him is just exactly what we need right now.

Agreed.
Those who used a valid rule to vacate McCarthy should have had a plan to replace him. They did nothing more than toss their grenade and run away.
Petulant children!

They had a plan. It didn't work out.
McCarthy is a shitweasel who didn't do what he agreed to do.
You can't let bad behavior go unchallenged.

Fine.
But now the entire caucus is screwed.
By the way, what exactly was their plan? Had they whipped the vote for a replacement? Not that I can tell.

Maybe this is the plan.
The plan has been the plan all along destroy the US. Make us all slaves. Once everyone accepts this plan, everything they do makes sense. Just accept their plan and prepare accordingly.

To make themselves look like a car full of clowns? If so, box checked. Unless you mean it was a Dem plan to assist the Pubs in looking like the aforementioned car full of clowns. In that case, neatly executed.

8 people thought they could force their agenda on their entire caucus. They were only half right.

Fuck those NY RINO's that voted against him, effing bought and paid for scum. Jordan was probably the only one in that body of misfits that isn't wholly or partially owned! Working for the Republic is a lonesome job these days.

Right now CNN is parading out liz cheny, calling her a super conservative, and letting her prattle on about how the GOP was only interested in the Constitution when she was involved, but has now become a radical group opposed to it.

Lizzy, go tell your old swamp daddy to loan you a few mil. , of our tax money he made through legislation, and take a break, go get laid or something, just shut the fuck up! Constitution, you don't even know what it says.

Seems like that's what some of the "Republicans" are aiming for. Too many repubs in congress are nothing more than dem-dick sucking self serving swamp rats. And too many of the other repub congress members talk the talk but have no balls. Heart breaking to see what DC along with much of the rest of the country has become. With all the shit that's going on here and abroad the US of A is in deep shit. Sadly, not enough Americans realize the seriousness of what has been, and what is going on, and what the outcome could be.
Think crime is an issue in the US? Wait until the border crossers and Hamas decide to go full on in our country. Shit will hit the fan at some point.
