Congratulations! You made me literally laugh out loud twice this morning, when I am facing a rainy, cold world and a day filled corralling middle schoolers. Which is, apparently, much easier than corralling allegedly adult GOP house members. I bet the middle schoolers would do a much better job of running the government than those pig asses. The are certainly more logical. And most of them can count.

Mike Johnson can count—he can count how many votes it would take to remove him as Speaker, something he doesn't want to have happen! I mean, what were the chances he'd get THIS far?

He's playing fourth-dimensional Go Fish, don't you see...?

The bigger story is that three defected, leaving a huge majority of them voting to impeach Mayorkas for political theater. Another chapter in the book of how the Republicans have become obstructionist, an actual impediment in our government. I'm waiting for a prosecutor to slap RICO charges on the entire operation.

In the final reckoning, this can't be allowed to continue...SOMEONE will have to stop it, or else SOMETHING will...Eventually there are things that the House 'controls' that MUST be addressed and that power will have to be wrest from them using emergency executive powers.

well didn't you know he couldn't count even before he became speaker? Apparently he couldn't the number of women and men when he pushed to end abortion. Apparently he can't count the number of men who molest their daughters. Apparently he can't add how much is beloved thieving raping pastor has stolen from others and he keeps on donating to keep his pastor in the pasture of crime.

Why would you expect him to know how to count?
