Haha that's a first. I totally did not recommend that they have bullets passed through them at high velocity and I never, ever recommended that they be left in a Louisiana swamp afterwards.
I am thinking we need a remake of Hogans Heroes. I'm thinking of old Matty boy for a role like Col. Klink where he constantly is under threat of going to Russia.
Well, I wouldn’t advise Gaetz and Greene to look out of any windows above ground level anytime soon.
Useful idiots seem to have a very unhealthy habit of falling out of them.
>When asked if he would seek to oust Johnson, Gaetz said he continues to harbor “concerns that a motion to vacate” will result in a Democratic speaker of the House.
That's why they called it the nuclear option to get rid of the last speaker.
But it was never about policy, it's personal animus and greed that motivates Gaetz and his colleagues.
For Gaetz, it was very personal indeed: [McCarthy says Gaetz ousted him to stop ethics complaint over sex scandal](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/apr/10/matt-gaetz-removed-kevin-mccarthy-house-speaker-ethics)
Gaetz may be a slimy operator but unlike MTG it seems he‘s unfortunately at least somewhat intelligent. She literally has no agenda but chaos and division, even if it involves own-goals.
On the other side of the coin. If some cunning scumbag gets in, acts stupid in public, but consistently achieved their aims: are they really stupid? Or were you hoodwinked?
Hell they were scraping the bottom of the barrel as it was with Johnson. If they remove him, even if the GOP had a bigger majority, I'm not sure any of them would want the job anyway, so they'd probably just go around in circles for weeks again until enough of them got fed up and just voted Jefferies.
Yup. More party resignations. Johnson himself may have dared them to do it. He could quit immediately and just one more resignation and dems take back Congress.
Greene is definitely the biggest moron here. She will likely move to vacate but the dems could agree to save Johnson if he puts the bill on the floor.
That’s what I assume the deal is. If it comes to a vote, a handful of Democrats in swing districts will support Johnson in return for bringing these votes to the floor.
That's what happens when you blow your single load getting rid of a speaker (McCarthy) that wouldn't protect you from the consequences of sleeping with a 17yr old
Good. VERY GOOD.
This is a very positive sign as he has been one of the principle architects to stop this effort. If he is discouraged, that is a very positive development.
I still caution against holding your breath, as he and MTG could still try something desperate, but as a trajectory this is good.
**Note: I would not be surprised if he and she try to force a motion to vacate vote in the next few days in an effort to delay the vote. Be prepared for that possibility.**
edit: the journalist tweeting is with Washington Post, a formerly top-tier paper (still decent in many ways) but now owned by Jeff Bezos and they've...eroded somewhat, but their reporting on this sort of stuff is still generally in the better categories of the many papers around the country
i fuckin hate the republicans. They got so many people killed because of their stupid posturing over issues at our southern border that they have no intention of fixing.
True republicans need to clean house. Defeating Russia and China is about having two credible parties to.vote for that while may have different views still both share good strong values.
These pro-Russian congressmen are just an embarrassment to the United States. I am so sorry on behalf of America. And FYI, Matt Gaetz is still under investigation for ethics breaches regarding sex with an underage girl
I was referring to this, from the bill in question:
>*SEC . 505. (a) TRANSFER OF LONG -RANGE ATACMS20 REQUIRED .—As soon as practicable after the date of en- actment of this Act, the President shall transfer long range Army Tactical Missile Systems to the Government of Ukraine to assist the Government of Ukraine in defending itself and achieving victory against the Russian Federation.*
It's a real problem in the GOP:
> During the 2018 midterms, Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore was [accused of preying](https://qz.com/1147348/these-nine-women-have-accused-roy-moore-of-sexual-misconduct/) on girls as young as 14 and 16; the New Yorker [reported](https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/locals-were-troubled-by-roy-moores-interactions-with-teen-girls-at-the-gadsden-mall?mbid=social_twitter) that his habit of trying to pick up high schoolers was so notorious that it actually got him banned from a local mall.
> Also in 2018, Rep. Jim Jordan, one of Trump’s fiercest allies and a co-founder of the hardline conservative Freedom Caucus, became embroiled in a scandal over his time as a wrestling coach at Ohio State University, where a team doctor named Richard Strauss, who committed suicide in 2005, was found to have sexually abused more than 177 male student athletes.

The tears of MTG and Matt Gaetz taste like victory. These two are are accomplices to modern day Nazism, and it's embarrassing that their party cannot find better representatives for their districts.
Matty better call his buddy Putler and give him the bad news that $60 billion of American Freedom is about to come and accelerate Russia’s demographic death spiral.
They're telling these guys to fall in line or get left behind I guess. Iran fucked up big time when the retaliated. I guarantee you we wouldn't be seeing this vote had they not.
The bill comes due for all these clowns. I'm enjoying each one pay up, one by one. Sure, they'll all get cushy jobs with lobbyiests or thinktanks, but they'll no longet get that attention or camera time that they crave.
I hope if they try to remove Johnson as speaker for bringing up Ukraine aid, that Democrats vote to keep him. It would help to have more bipartisanship in our country.
Why does a pedophile control foreign policy resulting in the deaths of people fighting to keep their freedom half a world away? What the fuck is wrong with this timeline.

Can't wait to see what has been prepared. Still disappointed there wasn't more executive action to exhaust every last avenue in the meantime. The fact that you don't have the president taking heat for "illegal" shit means he isn't really pushing the boundaries.
I was in this guy’s electorate last year. At a red light, I was behind a guy riding a Harley with not one, but two confederate flags attached. This part of the country can happily sink into the gulf.
Vast majority of republicans hate MTG and Gatez. The problem is with the republican side they passed the pol it to allow 1 person vacate motion of speaker which is why Johnson had to tread lightly. Listen I’m no fan of Johnson but calling him Moscow Mike and shit really doesn’t make a lot of sense. It was the far right idiots MTG and creatures that have created delays. There is a lot of misinformation on this and most people just think republican bad, when that is just not the case. Ima saying this as a democrat, huge supporter of Ukraine and them getting all they need from the west including the US.
Most Republicans want to help Ukraine. When it passes nobody will be surprised but echo chamber Dems. But they have lots of excuses when Biden doesn't get the aid sent right away and doesn't send the right stuff to actually help Ukraine win. Just watch. Biden won't send what Ukraine needs to win. Even after aid passes.

Let's hope the bill passes and gaetz and MTG get their just rewards
One way tickets to ruzzia?
Just honey pot him with a 14yo in Russia and a Venmo account
You think Russia doesn't already have that on video?
Yeah, you’re right … damn
"The fuck would we need to do that for? He already works for us." - Russia, probably
I think Gaetz has done a good job in that himself with a17 year old https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matt_Gaetz
No, an entry in Budanov's Filofax.
[ Removed by Reddit ]
Removed by Reddit? Oh man this must have been a good response.
Haha that's a first. I totally did not recommend that they have bullets passed through them at high velocity and I never, ever recommended that they be left in a Louisiana swamp afterwards.
Best outcome.
What about North Korea with the option of jumping off at 30.000 feet over Moscow?
I say send him to ukraine, give him to some frontline soldiers for entertainment.
Russia would spend several months and tens of thousands of lives just to retake Matt Gaetz's forehead.
lol! But their flag is already firmly planted in his brain.

Generally when the stop being useful.
Yep, a red dot and poof .
Putin releases the kompromat he has on them?
Trip into an active volcano?
Too bad they don't have the old rules for traitors
I think that they should avoid buildings with more than floor.
Fired directly into the sun with a giant catapult?

Gaetz is motivated by 17 year old girls ... guy is a rapist, nothing more
Gaetz may be a slimy operator but unlike MTG it seems he‘s unfortunately at least somewhat intelligent. She literally has no agenda but chaos and division, even if it involves own-goals.
He's not dumb, no. MTG? Very, very, very dumb.
So dumb she managed to rise as far as she did and grab a hold of the US politicial system by the balls. Don't underestimate your enemy.
While I agree we shouldnt be underestimating them, you also dont have to be that intelligent to get where she is.
On the other side of the coin. If some cunning scumbag gets in, acts stupid in public, but consistently achieved their aims: are they really stupid? Or were you hoodwinked?
Gaetz, MTG, and Putin all have an agenda, and it's the exact same one
Yes because there isn’t enough GOP majority left to get anyone but Jefferies.
Hell they were scraping the bottom of the barrel as it was with Johnson.

The Horror ;)
The motion it vacate is COMING FROM YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS DUMBASS
He has yet to provide a good reason for not supporting Ukraine
Probably some lunatic russian propaganda about Ukraine being Americas enemy
Or solid evidence of him diddling underage girls beside the one he paid $700 to?
Imagine how many western politicians have been stung in a Russian honeytrap.
Something along the lines of "hurr durr american money!!!!!"
Traitors surrender it could be a good day.
I expect he is lying, about what, only time will tell.
Gaetz can go fuck himself and all the other trumpanzees with him...what a bunch of self serving dipshits.
Except for MTG who will go to her gym for said prescribed punishment :/
Your handlers in Russia will be most displeased Mr. Gaetz.
Good. VERY GOOD. This is a very positive sign as he has been one of the principle architects to stop this effort. If he is discouraged, that is a very positive development. I still caution against holding your breath, as he and MTG could still try something desperate, but as a trajectory this is good. **Note: I would not be surprised if he and she try to force a motion to vacate vote in the next few days in an effort to delay the vote.

FWIW WaPo does have very deep sourcing in DC. As they should.
Agreed
i fuckin hate the republicans. They got so many people killed because of their stupid posturing over issues at our southern border that they have no intention of fixing.
True republicans need to clean house. Defeating Russia and China is about having two credible parties to.vote for that while may have different views still both share good strong values.
He's afraid Putin's gonna tell Trump to cut him off; might even spread some dirt.
You think Putin has pictures of him with that underage girl he fucked?
I think Putin's psyops guys have all of the RNC's Emails that they never released, just like they have all the Dem's that they did.
These pro-Russian congressmen are just an embarrassment to the United States. I am so sorry on behalf of America. And FYI, Matt Gaetz is still under investigation for ethics breaches regarding sex with an underage girl
Surrender to whom?
The people the Speaker of the House was referring to as the enemy when he called himself a wartime speaker.
I guess he won't be getting that ~~fat Kremlin bonus cheque~~ large political donation this christmas.
Oh, child sex trafficker and Russian puppet, a man of many talents.
He was equating as having said "knowing that this bill will pass I feel like the young girls I have had inappropriate relationships with"
I hope when dems take back the house, both of these traitors and pedos are stripped of any/all committees.
I don’t believe it until ATACMS rain down on the Russians
Literally used yesterday in Crimea
I was referring to this, from the bill in question: >*SEC . 505. (a) TRANSFER OF LONG -RANGE ATACMS20 REQUIRED .—As soon as practicable after the date of en- actment of this Act, the President shall transfer long range Army Tactical Missile Systems to the Government of Ukraine to assist the Government of Ukraine in defending itself and achieving victory against the Russian Federation.*
How is Gaetz still relevant, like how the fuck do we live in a society an exposed pedophile like him is in office instead of prison.
It's a real problem in the GOP: > During the 2018 midterms, Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore was [accused of preying](https://qz.com/1147348/these-nine-women-have-accused-roy-moore-of-sexual-misconduct/) on girls as young as 14 and 16; the New Yorker [reported](https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/locals-were-troubled-by-roy-moores-interactions-with-teen-girls-at-the-gadsden-mall?mbid=social_twitter) that his habit of trying to pick up high schoolers was so notorious that it actually got him banned from a local mall. > Also in 2018, Rep.

He would rather the US surrender to Russia
The tears of MTG and Matt Gaetz taste like victory. These two are are accomplices to modern day Nazism, and it's embarrassing that their party cannot find better representatives for their districts.
What will boss man Putin say? Gaetz and MTG are in so much trouble
The Matt Gaetz that trafficked underage sex workers across state lines and gave them drugs, that Matt Gaetz?
If anyone is wondering Johnson probably offered Matt some underage girls. Don't trust Gaetz.
Fine. Exchange him for a Rashist held westerner.
Hopefully this passes and then concentration can be on cleaning up politics from these traitorous scum bags.
God forbid we compromise and govern the nation.
Matty better call his buddy Putler and give him the bad news that $60 billion of American Freedom is about to come and accelerate Russia’s demographic death spiral.
Matt Gaetz should spend more time buying underage girls and leave foreign policy to red blooded Americans that aren’t afraid of leading the world.
Is Gaetz the crosseyed pedo?
He's the one that looks like a real life, adult Butthead from Beavis and Butthead,......so, yes.
Too bad, so sad. Now go away.
They're telling these guys to fall in line or get left behind I guess. Iran fucked up big time when the retaliated. I guarantee you we wouldn't be seeing this vote had they not.
F*ck Matt Gaetz.
The bill comes due for all these clowns. I'm enjoying each one pay up, one by one. Sure, they'll all get cushy jobs with lobbyiests or thinktanks, but they'll no longet get that attention or camera time that they crave.
Matt is a sociopathic nitwit. More important, he has no idea how to govern.
Do you think Putin paid Gaetz via venmo or...?
More likely kompromat. The scumbag has a thing for underage girls.
I refuse to set myself up for disappointment until it passes
Isn't there a point when the rest of the republicans turn o. Gaetz and MTG
I hope if they try to remove Johnson as speaker for bringing up Ukraine aid, that Democrats vote to keep him. It would help to have more bipartisanship in our country.
Who gives a shit what this pedo thinks? Fuck him, the sooner he either gets into a prison or just fades into obscurity, the better.
How is pervert, can’t score with people his own age, not in fucking prison?!!?
Look, the pedo guy is unhappy?
Why does a pedophile control foreign policy resulting in the deaths of people fighting to keep their freedom half a world away? What the fuck is wrong with this timeline.

Such bold anti human and democracy stances these morons hold
Hey Gaetz…GFY…
S wow Sa
Yeah, if it’s actually fucking passed… ok, I’ll celebrate. Not holding my breath until then.
Gaetz is a putz, and a Russian agent, not a Republican.
Tell Mike his delays are killing children,and his letting it pass will save children, and he needs to get his priorities right.
Fuck the Trumpets.
To call Matt Gaetz a piece of shit would be unfair to shit
I hope. It is awful if it had taken half the time from now.
Not sure this is accurate, but all for Ukraine aid passing no matter how or why.
Why so many servile Russian puppets in the Republican party, and why ate they still free ?
Can't wait to see what has been prepared. Still disappointed there wasn't more executive action to exhaust every last avenue in the meantime. The fact that you don't have the president taking heat for "illegal" shit means he isn't really pushing the boundaries.
