The trick of Democrats is obvious. They want to oust Kevin and try to bring their candidates.
Whati ALLOWED TO COME ON TV EN LAIERS
We believe in miracles. It happened yesterday by removing Kevin Mccarthy 😅
I got a question for trump about his question
Why are Americans always fighting amongst themselves?
Good riddance.
this is BAD. this is really really bad.
See, they did the right thing and next is get rid of Biden next
They are all snakes 🐍 life still is a mess for each American right now. Incompetence is running rampant. Even working overtime we are living paycheck to paycheck. The country is allowing itself to be invaded at the border. We need protection, prosperity, freedom. We need common sense back.
Trump should become speaker, Kristi Noem should run for President
McCarthy never should have been confirmed as Speaker to begin with. He’s just another example of a politician in the wrong line of work. His own party knew he wasn’t competent. They never wanted to confirm him. They knew he would inevitably embarrass them 🤡😂😂😂
Don't betray your party/colleagues. It's as simple as that
Goodbye and good riddance.
republicans are divided because they have a Trumpists group inside who no represent the principles of the original republican party and the are sabotaging everything don’t belong to the extreme right and Trump orders who is really the head of the republican party today. They don’t represent the best interests of american population, they don’t work for american population. They work under dividing and twisting Trump agenda creating chaos and confusion.
Can't play both sides of the issues, he learned.
Everyone one in office needs to be removed!!
Democrat corruption runs so deep the Democrats are above the law. They don’t even have to try to hide their corruption. They can get away with anything.
The Republicans are so weak and incompetent, they can’t get anything done.
Vote out everyone!!!
It's strange how those spineless lawmakers and political leaders rally together voting out Kevin McCarthy however keep quiet looking the other way when it comes to the worst ex-president ever !
Get him out!,,,,
what's funny is the clown show that is American Politics …. as I Canadian I also say the Canadian Politics is the same kind of clown show so I am not picking our friends ot the south. Unfortunately they don't seem to be any qualifications for becoming an elected official and as a result the current state of politics in north america is what we get …..
I'd sort of feel sorry for Kevin if he had a shred of honesty and hadn't spent his entire term as speaker going back on his word. I dread seeing whomever the GOP thinks should succeed him. It can only be worse.
United States ousted from world leadership position in historic collapse into dysfunction.
💥👋The question today is, Mr. Merrick Garland, US attorney general, is attorney of the Joe Biden? Is not, why he defends and hide all-important information that can show evidences about Joe Biden crimes? The same questions are for communications systems like CNN, MSNCBN, ABC, NBC and others, and public organizations like FBI, DOJs, IRS and others. What is behind of all this evil scheme? Please, who will can answer for me these questions? 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
It time for the republicans to clean house McCarthy. Isn’t the only one 😂😂😂😂😂
McCarthy's promises: You decide.
We're going to focus on the economy and tackle inflation.
We're concerned about the security and safety of America.
We're going to make the US energy independent.
We're going to secure the border.
We're going to stop defunding the police.
We're going to put a rating scale to every single prosecutor and make sure they're upholding the law.
We're going to pass a parent's bill of rights.
On the very first day we're going to repeal 87,000 IRS agents.
MSNBC removed this just minutes ago a Squawkbox recording.
If you believe polls that say the GOP is better on economic policy than democrats you lack historical knowledge. Every economic disaster this nation has had since 1900 is under GOP administrations. The latest under Bush and like every other economic disaster democrats have to come in and clean up. Democrats are better at governing, simple as that.
Let’s set the record straight the dems played the part with 208 votes against him
What the Squad should had done to Pelosi.
I always thought of Mccarthy as a RINO.
Don't you know
to read ?
Actually your economy
is on foreing hands.
Do you understand it now ?
Thanks to God
I am here.
And it is not a joke !
MOVE ON !
I Respect Kevin McCarthy This is A liberal lefty Stunt
Got him. 🤡
Okkkk😊
Ight
This is a signs and part of the curse president Joe Biden falling on others with shames,disgrace and disappointed. America will only be at peace when that ice cream grandpa is kick out off power
😂😂 when you bite the forbidden fruit this is your own soul ..
The Democrats are United, willing to board the Titanic knowing its future! Why? Because they believecl a lie! Gods' curse for rejecting Him!
I have always thought the American system of govenance is a government of the minority. This has just comfirmed it. A country where you have mojority of the presidential vote and still loose the presidency because a few delegates decide who gets the vote (Hillary vs Trump). A country where one person can paralised the most poweful military because he does'nt like a policy of the pentagon. A country where eight people can removed a speaker because he does'nt do what they want. A country where a nother president can just tear up international agreement signed by the previous one and there any agreement entered into survives at the pleasure of the next presiden. You system sucks.
It is so hard
the work of SuperHero.
A house divided soon falls.
Matt Gaetz is the only one with integrity.
USA ! :
Wake up and walk !
Amen.
