There’s been a few resignations/refusals to stand for reelection. Some are adults who don’t want to continue to work with angry, arrogant shrieking children.
No defections – perhaps I should say “defecations” – from the Freedom Caucus rubbish, though – More’s the pity.
Reminds me of a UK politician who remarked to a colleague about a fellow party member that: ‘He is own worst enemy.’ The colleague replied: ‘Not while I am still alive.’
What happened to the left’s favorite chant? Hate has no home here. When you’re done with McCarthys resignation, please pass the pens to the republicans. We have drawn up Joe’s resignation letter (we know he doesn’t have the wit’s to write anything on his own), hence the cheat sheets for meetings and the list of pre-screened reporters’ questions at press conferences.
And now Democratic Governor Newsom will have to pick a replacement for the remainder of Qevin’s term just as Democratic Governor Hochul of New York will have to do for the remainder of Santos’ term. Most interesting.

I hope he decides to do a bit of revenge on his colleagues before he leaves.

I can’t say I like the guy, but I can’t blame him for living. I bet he gets a cushy job as a lobbyist.

Why am I suddenly gleeful? Maybe now he will have time to go find his spine.

The GQP House members are offering pens with one hand, while giving him the finger with their other hand.

he already elbowed someone in the kidneys in the hall of Congress. Maybe he’ll use all those pens to write a book(s_.

At least three times a coward: Pilgrimage to Mar-a-Lago; Cave to Freedom Caucus; Resignation from Congress.

There are plenty more DC Swamp critters who should resign, including Tlaib.

I think what I’ll really miss are his endless recountings of “The Kevin McCarthy Story” every time he goes away. “I was born a poor black child….”

There’s a very long list who should join him. Starting with every person in congress who voted to overturn the results of the election.

He’s still supporting TFG, and hopes to get a job in his next administration, begging the question:
If you had a choice, would you hire the fellow who has broken his promises to BOTH sides,
or a small pile of Tuberville’s prized collection of used athletic supporters?
Choose wisely.
