No one really seems to know what happens next. Whatever happens, Gaetz already won.

This is the worst number of votes since 1860, when the House was split on the issue of slavery.
He’s a very sad sack, that McCarthy.
There is no sweet heart deal McCarthy can make because the Senate is regime controlled. There’s nothing he can offer. He has no leverage to do anything good, only leverage for people to join him in the steady, gradual concession parade.
Jim Jordan is going to launch a major investigation to prove what everyone already knows from the Biden laptop and Project Veritas crumbs.
Then he has a Biden DOJ to turn to.
It’s a dead end. Just shut down the House.
It’s past its expiration date.
The logic is very basic: hold out and keep the House shut down in perpetuity. This is far more damaging to the Democrats than anything you could do in committee.
Neither Trump nor DeSantis will take 2024. There is no cavalry charge. It’s over.
May as well deny the regime the power of the purse.
The official hero of America is now Matt Gaetz, who has been driving this revolt.
He appeared on Laura Ingraham last night. She was shilling against him and lost the debate.
The entire pundit class is total garbage.
None of these people will stand up for the people, they are just total shills for the establishment.
If Fox News actually stood up for Christian norms, the agendas of Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell would be impossible.
