  1. says the party who did Jan 6th

  2. A shutdown would put a stop to political corruption which would be good for the public but the corrupt gravy train would come to a grinding halt!!!

  3. And your value as some remove their holdings of the US dollar

  4. "Weaken Govt."???
    How about "Vaporize the alt right christian nationalist party of nihilists"
    They are about to experience a blue wave in 2024. States will flip solid blue.

  5. Shut it down.Tear the federal government down.

  6. Dems want Ukraine Aid included. They don’t care about Americans. Look at our border!

  7. Trump 2024 2024 2024 joebien sucks

  8. Kevin Mccarthy, I don't think he has it in him to Impeachment of Joe Biden he is dragging his feet Joe Biden will continue on what he has what he been doing.

  9. Unless the CR is a clean CR the democrats will not vote yes on it and they won’t vote yes until Jeffries gives the go ahead

  10. Declare state of emergency now. Vote for a short term bill now.

  11. It "could" hurt the party? Guess again… it WILL hurt the party and in a major way with just 13 months to the 2024 election. The Republican Congress is fractured and even many of its own members are getting fed-up with the Ultra MAGA "Freedom Caucus" and speaking out about their antics and mis-direction. As for Trump, what does he care if the government shuts down? His fat criminal traitor butt will be in jail by then!!!!

  12. Because 'GOP is dumb…..they just want control and they think shutting down will be on their benefit….go ahead so that all the MAGA Republicans will be wiped out by voters not voting for them!!!

  13. The Speaker is correct in asking why would anyone want to stop paying the Coast Guard or Border Patrol by shutting down government? Forced to work without pay lead people in the last big shutdown to quit and seek other employment.

  14. The government is already weakened.

  15. Putin:"Republicans, Go weaken America Forever!"

  16. Kevin.. these are all great questions. Maybe you should ask your keepers why they want to shut down the government so badly. Why are you asking a camera lens instead of the actual people??

  17. I'm pretty sure some of the GOPs want to tear the entire government down. His body language indicates extreme unease.

  18. It won't surprise me if the government had to shut down with Republucans at the helm. McCarthy can't make a deal with the Dems because the Republicans (maga) won't him.

  19. 😢 the purge will come like movies

  20. the best thing for americans is a weaken government-bring it on

  21. The party of 'family values'

    The party of 'law & order'

    No.

    It's the party of BS & theft.
    GOP ≠ Leadership

  22. This is his chance to enhance his ego yet he fails to act.

  23. so they fundraise until the last minute

  24. This what happens when a man gives his power to a woman who does not know how to handle it, does not respect it but she does know how to used it on the men in the MAGA party well I take that back she knows how to used it on the jelly fish.. a fish without a spine.

  25. "Electing" biden was much worse 😂

  26. They are the party of BDE,with nothing to back it.

  27. He's right. I don't appprpove this bickering and division WRECKING OUR ENTIRE COUNTRY AND REPUTATION. WORTHLESS GREEDY LEADERS! THIS IS POISON. ALL OF YOU WHO DON'T WORK FOR OUR ENTIRE COUNTRY ARE FIRED. There is nothing more embarrassing than these houses refusing to pay our bills. We HATE THIS. IT'S YOUR FAULT NOT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. WHAT AN ULTIMATE EMBARRISING SHAME THIS IS.

  28. It’s a warning and a call to arms. Every shout out of our weakness helps their over throw. They are what’s happening ,deliberately going to shut down and let you blame them for being stupid. They eat your lunch and livelyhood , to your tune of better not,better not.
