I may have never heard so many House Republicans — all of them — completely divorced from reality.
Whether they like or hate Speaker McCarthy, they are all talking as if the Democrats are the problem.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is a Republican.
Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz proposed vacating McCarthy from the Speakership of the House.
Last week, Republicans brought the entire US government — governing Democrats, Republicans and others — to the brink of a shutdown.
Democrats saved the wrong-headed Republicans from shutting down the entire US government last Saturday.
Holding the entire country hostage and shutting down the government because they cannot do their jobs (write and pass Bills, and persuade Senators and the President to agree with their Bills) is completely ridiculous, childish, irresponsible and pathetic.
If Republican House Reps — who get paid to write and pass legislative Bills — think there are problems with immigration laws, they should do their jobs: write bills, convince the Senate to take up those bills, work out compromise versions and send those versions of immigration bills to the White House for signature. Each of those reps receives about $176,000 per year to do that job.
If they don’t like the size of the national debt, those House Republicans who were in the House from 2016-2020 should not have written and worked hard to gain approval on Bills that helped Republican Donald Trump add more than $7 trillion of debt to the national debt in just four years.
These GOP members of the House are beyond ridiculous.
