  8. So says Gaezt the real roaring wolf

  9. The republicans just fucked themselves …!?!? 🥴

  10. McCarthy is such a timid little coward, it has nothing to do about anybody but him. He thinks the world, the congress is just waiting just begging for him to stand at that podium. Stand aside coward and let another republican take the gavel

  11. At this point JENNY MCCARTHY has a better chance at being Speaker than Kevin Mccarthy.

  12. I believe the Republican Party has spoken . . . . They don't want Kevin McCarthy. Period. Three ballots . . . no win.

    If by some fluke of a power play, he is elected today, it will re-enforce the perception of corruption in Washington, the good old boy system of power and pay backs, back scratching and back room deals made in late night smokey rooms each member selling his/her soul to the devil.

  13. Never liked this guy just a feeling?

  14. McCarthy is acting mentally ill, he will never be speaker yet he seems delusional, your not it stop obstructing congress

  15. Just pick someone else,why is the deep state Jesuits just let someone else do the job, McCarthy will never be speaker period, move on

  16. I have no real idea who that goverment represents anyway other than themselves.
    Put Dolly Parton in the seat.It’s never about me anyway.

  17. Imaging KM getting into his (not yet-not so fast) “earned” office and find Santos sitting there: “didn’t you know? I’m the new speaker-ish” 😂😂😂😂😂😂

  18. every day they hold back the vote, the ppl investigating santos have time to invite before he gets sworn in

  19. A Donald Trump's Deja Vu? 😆. Funny 😁

  20. HOUSE SPEAKER SHOULD BE VOTED BY THE PEOPLE – THE AMERICAN CITIZENS.

    RememberHelsinki

  23. If that Chip Roy guy ever was in a position of power over this country the doomsday clock would be as close to midnight as it could be.

  24. go back to selling used cars kevin

  25. "I earned this job" you entitled mother f-er no you did not!

  26. Crazy to see politicians with a backbone

  27. Keven refuses a social contract! You will be held accountable! His fellow GOP Republicans don't see him as trustworthy! He will not be Speaker! He wants nothing for anyone besides himself! The Party is over for Kevin!

  28. You cannot earn a Job for the Special Interest and Elite class. The People deserve a Speaker that repsents the People not Billionaires. McCarthy is a puppet of the Elites not the People.

  29. The hidden hands of Dems doing mischief for Brandon and Hunter,fear is the word as they will be destroyed so have a few butch like Chenny throwbacks

  30. Look how 19-20 Republicans are fighting their own party to get what they want. Look how they are holding up what the vast majority of their own party want as Speaker. Now imagine them attempting to pass legislation. It will not be what benefits the people who voted for them. It will be to help themselves gain more power. Look at the names of the people voted against McCarthy. These are the same people who had no issue throwing out the results of the 2020 election to insert Trump. They want one descending member to have the ability to throw out the current speaker. Three of the 19 want to run committees as part of any deal. This is how hungry they are for power. Put themselves ahead of the country.

  31. This is the biggest shenanigans I've seen since Donald Trump refused to concede. Who does this guy think he is to hold up the American government and continuously ask for three to five possibly more votes until he thinks he's going to win and he deserves this seat? He's a moron this has to end American politicians act more like children bickering neighbors than anything else. This guy should get one vote and when they vote against him that's it it's over. He thinks he has white privilege and he's going to get that seat well the people would be crazy to put in Donald Trump's sidekick. They have to change the way things are done now wonder America is such a bad place to live anymore no politicians are governing they don't know how idiots and morons from community college are being elected they do not as smart as you think they are and people like McCarthy is going to do nothing for America but set us back to the Trump bickering days. It's amazes me to see these grown white men stamp their feet and say I'm going to keep making people vote until they vote. No it's not your job oh white guy.

  32. The far-right National Socialist Kevin McCarthy should never be elected Speaker of the House, because he has neither the dignity nor the intellect or the backbone for a responsible post. He is and remains all his life only disgusting, pathetic and disgusting scum.

  33. Why do the Democrats always make it right about race. I don't look at him as a black man or a Latino . We are Americans. But the Democratic party always has to bring in race. I'm an American that's Mexican cassette but they want to call me latinx. It's like calling a black person the n word. That's why they came out with latinx for Mexicans

  34. How can he already move in when he hasn t been elected? Seriously.

  35. They need term limits because they are unable to stay from being corrupt but since they don't want to do it they trying to get a scammer back in there. Politics is easy to figure out its always about money and screwing over the American people.

  36. HEAVEN OR HELL, YOU CHOOSE!
    Whoever repents of all his sins (turns from sins) and calls on the Name of the LORD, will be saved! He who died on a cross for the sins of the world, rose from the dead on the third day, and by His blood, whoever repents and believes, has full redemption of sins and eternal life!
    Today is the day of your salvation, repent and confess Jesus now as your Lord and be saved, because you broke the law but He paid your fine with His life's blood!

    For those with understanding: Matthew 24:40-41 will take place very soon, this is the sixth seal. This is the generation of the harpazo, rapture, and behold you will witness the trumpet blast that will make the sky recede as a scroll being rolled up! Therefore, be ready and be the five wise virgins, do not be the five foolish virgins! (Parable of the Ten Virgins.)

  37. So many comments and tweets from clueless people who have no idea what's going on.

  38. Get Nancy Pelosi back in. When she says "she's get the votes"…she gets the votes. She gets the job done. This Kevin McCarthy don't have the balls to even get his republican caucus in line. What a shame.🥴🥴🥴

  39. Rand paul is a good senator

  40. Not unexpected. The GOP is seriously split, remember that a "House divided among itself, cannot stand". Hopefully the GOP will implode.
