The current crisis in the GOP has been a long time coming. Republicans who classify themselves as either Neo-cons, RINOs, or MAGA, can’t agree on who should occupy the chair of Speaker of the House except to agree it won’t be Kevin McCarthy. It’s not a problem that the GOP lacks a leader; it’s that the GOP lacks leadership. They’ve licked the Democrat boots for so long that they’ve lost the leadership skills necessary to do what their constituents want them to do, be bold Americans.
Conservatives are always left out in the cold. This growing schism in the ranks of GOP leadership represents nothing more than the beginning of the need to pull the GOP out of the corruption of the Uni-Party and New World Order schemes. It has all the appearance of the irresistible object colliding with the unmovable mass, and Democrats are salivating in glee at the apparent GOP dysfunction. They shouldn’t!
I’m against labeling folks into categories that may apply, like Nazis, right-wing terrorists, deniers, racists, etc. I don’t see myself comporting to any of those categories, but I do see myself as an anti-communist. Does that make me an enemy of the state? Well, yes, if it’s Democrats running the state. Under no circumstance do I say that Kevin McCarthy is a communist. I don’t believe he is, but he is not a conservative as we understand the term, but a professional politician who enjoys his role in government. The burning desire to become Speaker has already led him to eleven failed votes for that job. Seems like he isn’t going to get it!
Twenty GOP congressmen react like pro-Americans in their opposition to elevating Kevin McCarthy to Speaker. They know what we all know, McCarthy has a long record in the GOPs House leadership playing the corrupt political games necessary so as not to be labeled as an outsider, but a team player (aka boot licking). The question is: whose team? The Deep State, perhaps? The New World Order, World Economic Forum, America’s Democrat Socialist party? Whose exactly?
The political waters turn murky here. All professional politicians need money, including Kevin McCarthy, but McCarthy is no slouch here. Apart from his own multi-million dollar Congressional Leadership Fund, supposedly to be used to support GOP candidates, we learn he dispensed funds only to incumbents of the RINO cut or new candidates who have pledged their troth for the money, to vote as a RINO or as directed by the leadership.
On top of that, the Federal Elections Commission (FEC) reported that Kevin McCarthy accepted a piddly 2 million dollars for his PAC from Ryan Salame, the Co-Chief Executive Officer of the now-defunct FTX bitcoin fraud. It’s a matter of public record. So, is the job of the Speaker so important that only he can fulfill it as a Republican? If so, what is McCarthy going to concede to get it? It hasn’t happened yet, and I heard none of the concessions he did make are in writing. It’s a politician’s job to make promises and not keep them!
Sources close to McCarthy said his campaign team agreed to a proposal offered by the conservative Club for Growth that could win over enough of the twenty anti-McCarthy House Republicans to elevate him to Speaker or certainly enough votes to give him momentum. The Club for Growth proposal, on the face of it, could have been debilitating to Mccarthy’s future plans.
It was proposed that McCarthy should agree that his Congressional Leadership Fund PAC be “prohibited from spending money or providing grants to any super PAC to engage in open Republican primaries or against any Republican incumbent.” That would be a hard agreement for McCarthy to make. He couldn’t buy favors then, could he?
Politicians need rules, but they make them up as they go along. Harry Reid was good at that, always moving the goalposts to suit the democrat’s needs. I don’t know if this rule has ever been changed, altered, or amended, but the Speaker doesn’t need to be an elected Representative. In fact, today, Matt Gaetz proudly put forth Donald Trump as his pick for the job of Speaker. So, how about it ⏤ voting Donald Trump as Speaker of the House and getting on with the business of Making America Great Again? It would drive Democrats absolutely crazy. Wouldn’t that be a hoot?
Remember, freedom is the goal; the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em!

They have leadership. It’s just crappy leadership. The McGOP needs an overhaul starting with McDaniel, McConnell, and McCarthy. Sadly, that will never happen. They are the leaders of the uniparty power structure that has given us a $30tt yoke to our grandchildren.
