Plus a whole bunch of other adjectives I can think of right offhand, many of them unsuitable for politer company than moi.
Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the House Proves DC Cannot Be Fixed From Within
DC is irreparable.Kevin McCarthy as de facto leader of the GOP is all the evidence necessary to realize the Uniparty Swamp is in complete political control. Pockets of opposition that occasionally pop up get burnt and discarded faster than a Hunter Biden crack pipe.
The GOP is the marginally-less-horrible wing of the Uniparty Swamp. This political cabal owns DC, or to be more accurate, they manage DC and do whatever they’re told when they get calls from Beijing, Davos, or Hell.
American people have absolutely zero influence over DC today.
The election system is completely corrupted. Legislation is bloated to thousands of pages so politicians can “earn” their payoffs from special interest groups by sneaking in the taxpayer-funded pork. The bureaucratic state is a cesspool.
The McCarthy-run GOP bathes in all this.
Only God can save this nation.
Alas for us all, so far He seems entirely disinclined to do so.
Few in DC deserve our support and even fewer deserve our respect. Unless we can somehow break free from the system, we will always be slaves to it. The system is worse than corrupt. It’s irreparably broken. And that’s the point. They WANT it broken to cover up their ineptitude.
Nah, they don’t much care about that, as long as the moolah keeps flowing their way and their power remains effectively unchallenged by us lowly Proles. Alternate view: it isn’t so much the system that’s broken, at least not the original one envisioned by the Founders; the grubby, grasping swine who perverted that one into the misbegotten mess we now suffer under are what’s broken here. THEY’RE the ones that can’t be fixed, which means they need to broken for real—into little bitty pieces, so badly that the mere thought of ever trying to fuck with us again causes them actual physical pain.
JD is correct, though; Swampy McCarthy is almost certainly going to wind up as SOTH, and he’s going to get cracking right away on breaking every false promise and reneging on every shady deal he used to maneuver himself into the position of power he so desperately lusts after. That indeed does put the writing on the damned wall for all with eyes to see, all the proof anyone should ever need about the true nature of the federal Leviathan-state, and that there really is no voting our way out of this.
I took a nap this evening after a long day. Wake up to discover that on the 15th vote the republican party’s favorite house marxist is now the speaker. Apparently the deal was finally made such that some of the remaining holdouts voted present, ending the McCarthy debacle.
Whores have more respect than McCarthy.
I read in a comment, so have no clue if true or not, that Gaetz voted present giving McCarthy the speaker position because he was promised chairmanship of the Armed Forces committee. Apparently that was taken from Rogers, the one that was getting in the face of Gaetz and had to be retrained.
I’m guessing that starting Monday some of the lesser snakes (not Gaetz) are going to find that the head snake told a few lies…
