Scalise withdraws

Posted by bingbong on Thu Oct 12 21:26:59 2023

He couldn’t get the votes. Now they have nobody. Meanwhile, Israel is fighting an unprovoked invasive horde of barbarians, Ukraine is trying to survive their unprovoked invasion, where just at the point of making some progress, their supplies run dangerously low.

Congress cannot do anything to help them. Not without resolving a 8 member tantrum.

Electing Hakeem Jeffries….who will have to work solely in a bipartisan manner given he would leading from the minority….seems to be the only solution. Can 9 moderate republicans help America? Before the world falls apart?

It is not. As a minority leader, he is forced to bring only bills forward that are bipartisan. Or nothing really gets done.

Wow you are dense. What if a bill has unanimous support among the Republicans but opposed by all Democrats, Jeffries could keep it from coming to the floor. Also, as Speaker he alone would determine membership on Select Committees. So what would stop him from forming a bunch od Select Committees to investigate stuff that President Trump was alleged to have done to distract from the failures of President Biden’s tenure.

Are you Shiite-ing us?

Israel is poised to…well before sunrise…militarily surge into one of the most densely populated urban environments on earth in order to eliminate one of the biggest threats to their existence. They need support. Their Iron Dome needs more missiles (as does Ukraine, whose UShelp should be fully funded as well, as this will prevent WW3 if they succeed), as they are running low.

Nothing is going to happen until there is a Speaker of the House. That's a huge problem.

First, I am glad you are siding with Israel. Second, foreign aid hurts Israel more than it helps. Third, Steve Scalise did the right thing by withdrawing, making it easier for the rightful man to be Speaker, Jim Jordan. Fourth, Congress would never be in this mess is it wasn't for that asshole Matt Gaetz, Congress wouldn't be in this mess.

Should anyone take you seriously when you cannot even spell "Jim" correctly? Other than 4 students words, can you prove those allegations? If the allegations had any credibility, why has there been no move to remove Jordan from congress? I would think that you lame liberals might be more concerned with getting shumer to remove menendez from the foreign relations committee. Or are we using lower standards for democRATS

I beg to differ. One example…They need missiles NOW. We have missiles NOW. We should help them keep their Iron Dome functioning. Yes, they can make more but that takes time. They don't have time, they have 5K missiles being fired into Israel daily now. How does that harm them?

Jim Jordan is going to allow WW3 to happen. He won't fund our assistance to Ukraine by not allowing the funding bill to be voted upon. We will have to fight when Putin invades a NATO nation. Americans will DIE if that is allowed to happen. What don't you understand about that?

The republicans are responsible for this. The party supported his running for Congress to begin with. Yes, McCarthy was a failure as leader.

Finally…why wouldn't I support Israel? I am not anti-Semitic. Do you actually believe some here?

So you want actors like the Chinese and Russians (who, BTW, we do not provide any aid to) to develop the rest of the world, holding them in their sway?

I do not. Developing countries should be free to choose their paths.

Georgia, Arizona, and Wisconsin were all 0.63% or less which means if even 0.64% of all ballots cast in those states were fraudulent it becomes a 269-269 tie and Trump wins based on having more state delegations in the House of Representatives.

Fact remains, they weren't. IIRC, over 60 courts decided so. The 2020 election, in fact, goes down in history as the most credible ever.

And no, it wasn't close. Presidents are elected by electors.
