Who is the young guy sitting next to McCarthy with the orange tie? His son?
The American People have to admire the perseverance or the Republican Extremist who have infiltrated Key Jobs at the Federal, State, County and City Governments. Kevin McCarthy's Congressional House Speaker Drama is Poetic Justice for Majority Establishment Republican John Boehner and Paul Ryan that were forced to resign their Republican Congressional House Speaker Position by Minority Republican Extremist like Kevin McCarthy. I look forward to being entertained by the Minority Republican Extremist infighting and dysfunction.
Bringing kids to an event like this is a form of social engineering.
Yay…..,………………………..
This guy is a total joke. He never should have been elected.
Ainโt no way they broke out in a USA chant
Well the Democrats got exactly who they wanted. The same person they bought many years ago
All a dog and pony show. The republicans are aiding and abetting the criminal democrat party. We now have Nancy Pelosi Jr as speaker of the house. I've decided to leave the republican party and go Independent. The republican party has nothing to offer me anymore. They are all in it together, democrats and republicans, thick as thieves. I have to wonder who was clapping and cheering the loudest, republicans or democrats. The democrats just got a get out of jail free card for all the crimes they have committed. I will never vote again in any election outside my own state. Why waste my time voting for criminals. Do you think Nancy will teach McCarthy the ins and outs of insider trading?
Another win for the uniparty.
๐บ๐ธ
Another joker
I thought they needed 218 votes to become speaker how can you get elected with 216. Just curious?
Circus of clowns
Are you fucking kidding me.
THIS IS GOP LEADERSHIP POST RUSSIAN BOT BITCH – AKA THE FORMER- TAKE OVER OF AMERICA?
Look at that! A lousy four point spread.
Wonder how many sacrificed Human Civil Rights it took to the altar of the military industrial complex it took?
What a shame Republicans are so Dumb
I can simultaneously offer valuable insight and express the emotions of the country with just two emojis: ๐คข๐คฎ
Oh are we ever in trouble. McCarthy came from the demorat party months ago. Just where do you think his loyalties lye? He will be another pelosi.
Waiting for the movie to be over . Corruption to be expose by Almighty GOD on every area starting with MSM, churches, politicians, & many more. It will be Biblical. Keep ๐๐บ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐๐๐บ๐ฒ๐. Miracles are coming.
Republicans don't want him. Just one step closer to nuclear war. People on the left lost too. What u think they are going to stop with oppressing Republicans. Dems ain't special to the politicians either. Don't fool yourself. We heading towards hell. Enjoy the ride.
Iโm dying here. 15th try. ๐ฎ come one!!!! There should be a limit of tries.
Congrats Kevin; it only took sacrificing your patriotism, dignity, and reputation, hopefully having this title was worth it for you
RINO
Just can't get rid of those Rino's. Here we go!
Defense industry and politicians will profit while there won't be enough of our tax dollars left for the people.
Now they can kick him out since he said it will only take one person to get him fired from speaker
Establishment wins again. A crime syndicate runs the government.
Soon to be voted out if the rebels get their way. Something has to give.
Wow Americans are weird. This just showed how divided their country is and they applauded it and chanted USA lol
Shameful display of ignorance. Republicans at their best. January 6th all over again. Now none of the treasonous fools, elected by fools will ever be imprisoned. Second sad day for Americans. May God have Mercy on our souls…so sad. SO DISTURBING!
Now he's smiling, earlier he was a lost kid with no where to go.
Disgusting POS shouting "USA". This is anything but the USA I protected, fought, and sacrificed in war for. Facists have now taken over the House–full in. Watch what happens next. You ain't gonna like it, no matter who you are. NO Facist regime has EVER been successful. How many Stupid "Americans " are there in this country? Aaaah, let me count the ways…
O NO โฆ.HE IS UNETHICAL ๐คฅ๐คฅ๐คฅ๐คฅ๐คฅ๐คฅ๐คฅ
Why do we let democracy in a republic…these sycophants need to go…F@#$ McCarthy…I swear to God he better play ball or else…all these occult leftist need to be jailed…all of them
Now if the presidential election was done the same way as the Speaker of the House than maybe dumpy dump could have been re-elected by now! ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ
Itโs really not a Celebration if it took 15 separate votes to win!
Here we go with Pelosi 2.0
Ratioed!
They jerked him around and made him bend their way!
There is not much room for him and the Republican Party to have complete dominance!
Letโs just hope the orange pumpkin doesnโt fall in the middle and stain them with his corrupted ideas to keep him from jail time!
Clowns finally elected their King of Clowns! Well done.
What a bunch of clowns the American people have working in Washington DC
Great! ๐ Captain war mongers wins! Neither party is worth a damn!
If the only worked!
Are American economists stupid? They are hypocrites ! A team of economists in the US already know that rising interest rates cannot control inflation. The cause of inflation in the United States is the soaring stock prices. The reason for the high inflation in the United States is the unusually high stock price. There is a limit to reducing high inflation due to interest rate hikes, and only suffering will continue. The most accurate prescription for lowering prices is to drop the Dow to 22,000-23,000 points. Advice from a Korean citizen! Shalom to everyone~.
Well, 100% it was getting LATE… 85%+ of these State Representatives had to get back to their mistresses and wives for ANOTHER extended weekend time off ๐ก๐๐
Great!
Now we can get down to some serious issues that our country needs to be addressed like Hunter Biden's laptop and investigating Dr. Fauci. ๐คฌ
Useless idiots.
With all the concessions he gave, and all the in fighting, I don't see it as a win, but rather a period at end of an embarrassing sentence.
News Flash: ABC new finds way to avoid publishing fake news. Just show the video and leave the talking heads out. Good Job ABC News. Looking forward to this new format.
And he cheers with joyous gleeโฆโฆโฆafter the 15th ballot. ๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐
that many old white dudes celebrating isn't good for the american people i'm afraid.
Look at that dipshit thanking them like they actually WANTED him to be speaker. Powerless asshat! Spineless gimp!
He's going to be the absolute worst speaker in american history. Can't wait for this loser to take the gavel and prove us all correct. WHAT AN OUTCAST DOUCHEBAG!!
