GOP MC ATTACK

Submitted by ub on

The Republicans are coming closer to a severe Congressional Mc-attack; could you spare me two bits to get some fries with that?

We are full-line communicators with 11 years of experience and would be happy to cover the next set of red, white, and Greene attacks! 

The coming days will give McCarthy time to court his many critics, which could involve a combination of concessions on a House rules package, appointments to plum committees, and other related promises to individual lawmakers.

Across the Capitol, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is also getting heat from colleagues after a promised “red wave” that never materialized in the midterms, costing Republicans the chance in their chamber to secure a majority.

Can the 'Never Kevin' caucus hold the line?

Five House Republicans say they won't support Republican leader Kevin McCarthy — enough to deny him the speaker's gavel. But they're facing enormous pressure to cave.  https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/can-kevin-mccarthys-opponents…

You'll be happy to know that Kevin McCarthy, whose only gift is making up excuses for the violent, insane, anti-democracy, murderous, treacherous, traitorous, seditious mob otherwise known as "The Republican Party," has reassured us that when Marjorie Taylor Greene said SHE would've "won" the January 6th Coup, she was just being "facetious." (2:11) So now, what rationalization will he come up with Rep. Ralph Norman and his text of 1/17/21 urging that Trump get busy "invoking Marshall (sic) Law!?" There's quite a few of these McCarthy needs to excuse: the Republicans who want to hang Democrats, who want to hang them from cranes, or put them before firing squads. What words might he choose? (7:05) And how would he describe what Trailer Park Greene asked Laura Loomer to find out about McCarthy's own "affairs"? (8:19) And what word would we use if McCarthy grew a pair and acted to expel Marjorie Taylor Greene under the Rebellion Clause of the 14th Amendment? ‘ By Keith Olbermann Podcast #Countdown
