This is good stuff. Brutally good stuff. I’m going to begin by repeating what I said last week.
I do not know if Matt Gaetz is the worthy Ty Cobb of Republican politics or not, but I do know he is currently one of the only people that is not pretending. That elevates him in my view. Oh sure, he’ll probably acquiesce to the pressures and sell out just like the rest of them, but right now – in his best form – Matt Gaetz has dropped the pretense, and that has sent the machinery of the DC Republican system into fits of apoplexy. Good.
I’m at the point of frustration with this nonsense where apoplexy, anger and visible ‘losing their sh*t’ makes me smile.
As CTH has outlined for well over a decade, the last federal budget that went through the appropriations process, passed both chambers and was signed by a president, was the fiscal year 2008 budget signed in September 2007 by George W Bush. Every single budget from that moment to today has been a series of continuing resolutions, omnibus spending packages (mini and regular) and baseline budgeted CR extensions. So, when Gaetz says it needs to stop, he’s holding the righteous high ground, and it doesn’t matter which congressional or media voice tries to say he’s wrong. He ain’t wrong.
Today, Gaetz said he’s willing to do whatever it takes, to see Kevin McCarthy taken down -OR- forcibly propped up by the Democrats in congress. Which, I might add, will highlight the exact nature of the UniParty construct with a clarity not before understood by the majority of Americans. Go for it, Matt… Make it happen. WATCH:
.
STAY STRONG MATT!
Gaetz was also on CNN giving Jake Tapper a case of the vapors. 😂🤣😂
.
This guy on ABC sounds like an idiot
Karl always leaves his marx
argumentative. He’s suppose to ask reasonable questions, not argue with the interviewee. I cannot stand to even look at Hakeem Jefferies. He is one evil looking man.
He IS evil.
The soul of the current democrat party is anti-God. That’s their agenda and purpose, and those who like that outlook like that party. That’s why violent criminals are usually democrats. And that lack of conscience absolves them in committing voting fraud… they have no fear of hell.
I know what you mean about Hakeem Jeffries. He gives me the willies. Something about him is over and above the usual loathing. Strangely evil.
He reminds me of certain canines whose eyes one daren’t meet.
Full of menace and eager to maul and maim.
He has the same evil, chiseled look as Barack. May come from the same planet (not this one).
A 6th grader could have done a better job than the ABC interviewer.
“Matt, it sounds like this is personal!”
What a d.
It sure as hell is personal to millions of voters. We have zero representation.
Finally! A Republican that can make cogent and logical arguments, and can explain his position thoroughly so that even and idiot partisan hack like Tapper can understand it!
What’s not to like in Matt Gaetz? His argument is about the agreements McCarthy made in January in order to garner enough votes to become speaker and he’s behaved like a Democrat the entire time. He has made stupid, back room, secret deals with the Biden White House, he’s blind-sided the Republicans who thought he was negotiating on the money honestly and capitulated and gave away every advantage the Republicans had!
McCarthy has had more than enough time to show his true colors. We see who he is. Matt Gaetz has the moral high ground here. I’ll be contacting the loser that represents me (Tom Cole, OK) to tell him to back Gaetz.
At this point, Matt Gaetz, Tim Burchett, Lauren Boebert, Anna Paulina Luna and Matt Rosendale are the hero’s in the House. I would love to see more Republicans find their moral courage and stand up with these brave people.
‘They’re’ going after Gaetz on BS ethics violations for expulsion!
Where you at MAGA congressman, especially you, MTG????!
MTG is a McCarthy fan girl.
Playing second string to Luntz.
She tweeted Saturday to remove McCarthy 🤷♂️
Did she beat Gaetz to it?
Well that’s kinda special.
It appears to me that the Republican Party is in for a significant shake up.
Gaetz, President Trump and a number of other individuals are making just simply too much sense.
It is hard to imagine Hakeem Jeffries in essence being McCarthys “ Bud” and McCarthy not getting a primary challenger.
Gaetz sure speaks well..
Cheers!
McCarthy was given his chance and blew it. The Republicans need new leadership if we are ever going to turn this country around. I’m not holding my breath.
The entire group, Ryan, McConnel, McCarthy.( etc)
Years back the guy that lost in Virginia ( that loss shook the RINOs) and have fought every challenge to their power since.
Cheers!
Congressman Brat won and he was another Gaetz. Brilliant in the law and they voted(?) him out after 2 years. RINOs knew he made them all look like the crooks & idiots they are.
I have to disagree. Brat was not brilliant in the law, he was an economics guy. The people of the 7th aka Tea Party got him single handedly elected and Brat could not choke out a thank you to the Tea Party. It was so lame. We focused on the victory because it was so sweet, but never forget his disdain for the very people that got him elected.
Brat’s win didn’t phase the RINO’s for long. Brat was treated like dirt by the RINO’s for beating Cantor, but unlike Gaetz he had no spunk or fire. He did nothing to help himself beat Spanberger. NOTHING. He wanted out after two terms. He term limited himself. Brat got his book that no one read and a cushy post Congressional job that was lined up. He got his and is now a happy little camper. Where I live you don’t utter his name.
Nobody ever wins a a race alone.
If Brat did nothing else, he knocked off the heir apparent & the amnesty king of the republicant party. That was priceless.
McTurd is Boehner 4.0

McCarthy COULD redeem himself, by following through on the promises he made in January to become Speaker: but he won’t.
Everything he does is one erect middle finger to Middle America.
Smart man, not holding your breath. Curious question on the “if we are ever going to turn this country around.” How much time do you believe is left before it’s too late?
Reason I ask is, like the debt clock and the doomsday clock, at some point every clock passes the point of no return. And those two clocks are precariously close to their witching hours. After which this country will be a wasteland.
I know you didn’t ask me that question, but I think we’ve already crossed the line of no return. My question to self is how bad is it going to get, and what do I need to do to prepare for an America that looks like Russia after the World Wars. Infrastructure in ruin and millions starving. If we go into WWIII, as the Biden Administration is driving us, no one may survive.
Don’t mean to be a Debbie Downer. I just want to be prepared to help my family not starve. I pray for Divine intervention.
I ask the question because some think they can still vote themselves out of this. As if the entire government apparatus is going to stand down and say “let’s let them have a fair election.”
Nothing downer at all about your answer. In fact, it’s refreshing in this forum where group think is excessive. Thank you for having the confidence to step forward and speak your mind.
I, and many others, are in total agreement. And it is why I say get closer to God and prepare yourself and your family as best you can for what is coming. And I will continue to do so. Sounds like you are there. Congrats!
Yes, pray and prepare, simultaneously. God bless you and yours.
Not going to happen. A zebra can’t change his stripes nor a leopard his spots. McCarthy is owned by the establishment and he doesn’t have the ability nor the will to contest that ownership. For gosh sake, they may even expose his romance with Luntz if he tries to assert his independence.
He’s not homosexual. He had a torrid affair with married freshman House rep Renee Elmers, with both committing adultery. He’s married, you know, to a devout Christian.
The Republican Party is at a major inflection point. The Establishment Republicans , RNC, and conservative pundits are trying to eliminate the MAGA movement. They are doing everything they can to keep President Trump from getting nominated. Probably helping the leftist with Trump indictments, Kemp and others.
Now they are trying to kill the MAGA movement in the Republican House reps. They have pretty much done it in the senate.
I have zero interest in voting for Establishment Republicans
I am thinking about moving to Niceville FL
Gaetz being the congressman there is a plus
It’s a nice place to live 😉
OK, serious question. When SD refers to Gaetz as the “worthy Ty Cobb of Republican politics” is he referring to the ball player or DJT’s former lawyer?
Personally, I think the ballplayer is more fitting. Gaetz is both hated and feared by everyone in his universe.
That’s because he has come in the mantle of PDT.
He is holding up a mirror and they see that they are gutless time-serving pussies.
And they hate him for it.
Ball player.
House GOP members seek to expel Matt Gaetz over ethics woes as he attempts to oust speaker: ‘No one can stand him’Rep. Matt Gaetz’s GOP colleagues are looking to boot him as the firebrand Florida lawmaker leads a push to oust House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.
https://nypost.com/2023/10/01/house-gop-members-seek-to-expel-matt-gaetz-over-his-attempts-to-oust-kevin-mccarthy/
RINOs really don’t like people who actually stick up for America. Look what happened to Colton Moore in Georgia – and that was by the Republicans.
Perfect example!
They will use Gaetz to drop the impeachment investigation as a bargaining chip.
Mrs. McLuntz took a two-month paid vacation so he could wait and force this issue now in favor of the Democrats. Because he is one.
Just like he rigged the Budget and the Debt Ceiling for Democrats.
And just like he is slow-walking Impeachment until Obama picks his next PedoPuppet.
And until Kevin can throw the House to Democrats like Paula Ryan did.
Malachi 4:
1 For behold, the day comes that shall burn like an oven, and all the proud and arrogant, yes, and all that do wickedly and are lawless, shall be stubble; the day that comes shall burn them up, says the Lord of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch.
2 But unto you who revere and worshipfully fear My name shall the Sun of Righteousness arise with healing in His wings and His beams, and you shall go forth and gambol like calves released from the stall and leap for joy.
Amen!
Geatz = FIRE
Go Matt Go!!🇺🇸
If they can’t/ won’t hold McCarthy to his agreement, then those who pushed for McCarthy need to hit the road. That means you MTG.
AMAZING How these TALKING HEADS Do NOT ASK PROBING QUESTIONS – THEY DEBATE / ADVOCATE for an Issue.
I don’t understand what is so hard to understand about McCarthy. He was and is a Washington DC insider currently pretending to be a conservative because it suits his personal aggrandizement scheme. He, like most of those who spend any amount of time in the DC morass has been subsumed into the Uniparty. They are, to use a tired analogy, the officers on board the Titanic, directing the ship of state into the ice floes at speed because their ulterior motive, supplied by the owners of the shipping line is to set a new trans-Atlantic speed record. Protecting the passengers is, at best a secondary consideration. In their myopic dedication to their main, if concealed task they have put the ship and al it contains in mortal peril, yet they refuse to even see the danger, believing in their hubristic delusion that they are insulated from disaster. God help us all.
Great analogy, Steve.
Call Matt’s DC office tomorrow and tell him thanks. A little encouragement goes a long way.
What Gaetz is setting McCarthy up for is what Sundance is now saying. McCarthy is a Democrat at heart and he will be exposed for all to see – a traitor masquerading as a Republican. Gaetz will grow in power and McCarthy is going to go down in flames. Nobody trusts a traitor and McCarthy is a traitor. He may cling to power in the short run but he will never be trusted by anyone again.
SOB’s like McCarthy believe they are invulnerable. Who has offered them protection?
Bonne question…
What a terrible way to live one’s life, constantly looking back over one’s shoulder to make sure the protection is still present and in effect. Sad.
THEY ARE OUTRIGHT STEALING THE UKRAINE FUNDING. IT IS ALL GOING TO SWISS BANK ACCOUNTS.
THAT’S WHY THEY CLING TO UKRAINE–THAT AND THE HUMAN TRAFFICKING, DRUG TRAFFICKING, BIO-WEAPONS LABS, PLUTONIUM TRAFFICKING, WEAPONS TRAFFICKING, ETC. ETC.
IT HAS ZERO TO DO WITH “FREEDOM”.
Awesome–he said “last”!
Remember, the DEMOCRATS refused any accounting for our tax dollars being dumped into the hands of one man in Ukraine.
Golly gee! I wonder why?
The one thing to observe in this whole affair the last two weeks is how ConInc has circled the wagons around McCarthy and gone after Gaetz with the same venom as the left. Mark Levin, (a.k.a. Ol’ Yeller) as one notable example absolutely blew up any claim that he might ever make to me about being a fiscal conservative. He also demonstrated that he’s got the GOPe on speed-dial via people like Chip Roy(RINO-TX), and that his ear is completely bent in that direction. Nowadays, I’m waiting for him to announce his endorsement of Rob DeSanctus, but really, this entire episode is already demonstrating to me that there are very few Republicans who are worthy of my support. Couple this with the shenanigans we Texans witnessed with our legislature through the Paxton Hoaxpeachment, and I’d say we have damnably few friends in the GOP. And like Sundance, while I expect politicians to be politicians, and wait with trepidation for the day Gaetz betrays us, so far, so good. The skunk nest circling around Kevin McCarthy needs to go, and with him, at least half or two-thirds the GOP caucus. Don’t even get me started on the Senate.
Check ✔️ ✅️ on all you wrote Mark America as these people really are democrats by their actions and qualify as “enemies foreign and domestic”
Gaetz is tough as nails. I am hoping he will be able to handle them.
Forked Tonge Yapper Trapper! What a SNAKE! Gaetz skillfully and correctly flushed that Yapper in the Trasher.
When the hell is everyone on the treehouse going to understand there is nothing worth saving in this ass backwards country anymore.
We’re way past fixing this with these clowns.
The COUNTRY is worth saving. It’s the GOVERNMENT that needs to be…completely dissolved and replaced.
Exactly 💯 Mark America
👉Save the Country by dissolving the current antiConstitutional bureaucracy and replace with Constitutional Republic Citizens who love our Country minus most of our current bureaucracy 👈
Question is how to do this and who will step up to do it.
The FIX is in…Kevin made a deal with the Dems, ( the ones masquerading as Repubs), to support his Chair if Gaetz tries to pull it out from under him. Remember only 90 R’s out of 221 voted against this cluster puck. This is, without a doubt, the slimiest Congress we have ever been shafted by….!
I love the condescending attitude of whoever this guy is to Matt.
Matt shoves it down their throats, and has no fear. I love him!

Lmao, Gaetz is called a “smart guy without morals”.
It’s official, the UniParty has spoken and projected who they are onto who they despise.
FGOPe
relocated
Don’t get dead Matt!
You guys should read Laura Loomer’s comments on Twitter today about Gaetz. Quite a bit of it rings true.
Sundance did warn us that not a single one is reliable.
Trust no one but God, and His spirit in you. And know you were created in His image. That we are all competent to counsel. All sinners. All paid for with blood. All called to call him Lord in response to His love, grace, mercy, omnipotence, and authority
We as a nation were more submitted to his authority, humbled by our persecution. Imperfect, but God blessed the fruits of even the imperfect faith and lives of our founders.
I have no doubt in what she is saying, but she has her own set of issues. No disrespect, she is a fighter, but sometimes people don’t always put their talent where it could be most utilized. Politics is such an ugly game.
She’s always been a real attention seeker, and kind of crass. She’s cleaned up her act a bit, and found a good niche with her investigative journalism, but I don’t trust her as far as I could throw her. I’ve watched her for probably 12 years. She lives in my area.
She hates MTG, and actually floated the idea of moving to GA to run against MTG in her district!
She’s a NY Jew. She knows NOTHING about the Southern culture, or the district, or its history. She just thought she could move up there, and be the savior of a place she knows nothing about, cares about not a whit, in a culture that would rightly see her as a Yankee Carpetbagger. How arrogant/clueless can she be?
That there tells you all you need to know about her. Beware.
Thank you for sharing that.
Another thing that puts a lot of this in context is where was Gaetz calling for FKM’s ouster after that backstabbing deal to increase the debt limit in June?
This is looking more and more like Kabuki theater. I’m not sure that there is even one patriot in congress right now.
It reminds me of Genesis C18V16 sadly.
The knives will be out for Matt,,of this, you can be sure of.funny thing is,, gonna be repli-rinos doing the cutting,,, believe it
Keep throwing sand into the machine Matt! Then walk out of the room
I’m glad you owned up to crapping on Congressman Gaetz, I think he’s in the fight big time! Asshole deep
They’ve got the goods on ALL the Rinos, thus forcing them to play a bad hand worse. Someone needs to let them know we’re on to their shady dealings and they’re toast any way they play this. The question becomes do they leave the field in tatters or shame.
principles…personal principles…these are moral decisions that prevent you from losing your character and diluting your chosen identity.
principle…political principles…these are moral decisions that prevent you from becoming the swamp and diluting and losing the trust and faith of the people who voted you into office.
for a proper morally correct politico, personal principles and political principles are nearly a perfect venn circle with no outliers…
what GAETZ represents is something profoundly different than normal, status quo, institutional power in DC.
when the interviewer sarcastically grins and asks: “do you aren’t accomplishing anything…you are going to do this without the support of votes and move to vacate knowing it will never get the votes?”
see right there…you see it…the sarcasm is not fake…it literally represents the expectations from corrupt insitutional uniparty power in DC. The sarcasm is cynical to anything that looks like change. It is void of principle. The media has not expectation for change…”we have always done it this way”.
this is why I believe the founders understood well that a limited central government is how to govern. Because human beings cannot be trusted to have moral consistency. And when you have all that power concentrated with nearly no limits to its impact on THE PEOPLE..then it becomes corrupt. it attracts the worst kinds of people…unprincipled, unscrupulous scofflaws.
Matt Gaetz gets it. He is sending a shockwave AGAIN in DC. And he has stage presence now. Media people (in their attempts to set him up and attack and disenfranchise his ideas and to delimit his DC power), are elevating Matt Gaetz.
In a way, this is the same thing that is happening to President Trump. Every single time they attack him, his stock goes up.
and not because “we love trump”…or “we love gaetz”…no, we are not robots. WE LOVE THEIR IDEAS! THE IDEAS ARE BASED ON SOLID GROUND…PRINCIPLED INTELLIGENT BASED GROUNDING.
then we love them for doing THAT.
this is what the demented left has failed to recognize…they “love” biden, with every evidence to prove there is no reason for that affection..they have tied their knots to his broken wagon, because of FEAR AND HATE.
and those are mind killers.
The enemy of the the US IS ALREADY DEFEATED…BROKEN…the sooner we realize just how much power we have to transfer our best interests into DC and states, the sooner we can get past THE PAIN…the paralyzing neutral gear we find ourselves.
as this movement toward truth, and of principles, remember these people TRUMP, GAETZ…these are our champions…they are doing things that are far more important than just getting votes to vacate the house speaker. They are SHAKING THE WORLD.
God Bless America
Ah, as always the very voice of truth & wisdom comes to us from the keyboard of “regitiger”

When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened. – Billy Graham
We are to be a sheep, but only to the Shepherd who was present when the earth was formed. We are not to follow any one man, king, president, religious leader, with the same degree of lordship or submission as our Creator.
It is amazing: A word search of “one another” in the Bible yields several things we ae to do with one another: Meet, sing, teach, restore, speak, provoke to good works, protect, rest, stand alone, raise and train children, work. But also submit to one another in humility as we seek to be transformed by Him. To be like Him in whose image we are created.
Most of those “one another” things are embodied in the Bill of rights
A study of history shows those components in almost every system that consistently produces human beings of excellence in any skill, character, or purpose. Families, church, recovery (AA), Navy SEALs (or any warrior class), Olympic champions, excellent tradesmen, physicians, scholars, teachers.
Our founders put us in many silos: three branches, states, freedom to act as individuals, families, cities, states, churches.
The success of the Republic (“if you can keep it”) depended on the morality of the individuals, and grassroots groups seeking wisdom and growth individually. Ideally following the sacred wisdom not of this world. Jeffersons biggest fear is that we would become dependent and uneducated, and he took great steps to keep that from happening.
Sundance is right. We have the power. Start in prayer, be the best you can be where you are, throw sand, stand for truth,
This nation is still ours. Comfort is the enemy of growth. Lukewarm is for cowards.
I see a whole lot of loud pontificating about what *will* be done, not what *IS* being done.
Which… I’ve seen a whole lot of times before. (I’ve lost count).
So I won’t hold my breath. Will await for the actual action.
Gaetz, in this interview, has already postulated the failure conditions.
So we’ll see..
And now the GOP Establishment wants to expel him from the Republican caucus.
“House GOP members seek to expel Matt Gaetz as he attempts to oust Kevin McCarthy: ‘No one can stand him’”Try that, and the GOP will never get another piece of legislation through the house for years.
McCarthy is Hakeem Jefferies little bitch.
Matt Gaetz grills FBI Director Wray and makes him look as sleazy as he really is..
https://youtube.com/shorts/pbCgRQCbvPQ?si=r48EWJeyHUs39nXZ
Gaetz has eyebrows that go on for miles!
Unmasking McCarthy, Democrats can have him. We all are familiar with the terms laid out as the cornerstone of his Speakership. He is not a man of his word.
Matt is very quick on his feet, more power to him; bring it on, Matt, and bring him down.
Maybe Matt should be president of the senate in 2024
Would dearly love to see him replace the vacuous, spineless Rubio.
True Sundance, at some point you can’t deny reality and that reality is smacking the feckless worm McCarthy and his Uniparty collaborators smack in the face!!! 🫣
Uh oh! Some people in DC are getting upset with Rep Gaetz!
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/10/house-rinos-reportedly-looking-expel-matt-gaetz-based/
The Speaker should be removed ASAP if not sooner.
When the Dollar is no longer the currency that runs the world the US will have to absorb all the Inflation we create.
Which ever is the international Currency gets to force any one who trades in their currency to buy Oil to buy this or that is forced to absorb an equal percentage of that inflation that country creates equal to the GNP, What ever that country’s percentage of the World Economy they have to absorb that percentage of the inflation.
Just imagine if the US inflation was ten times higher then it is because the rest of the world was not absorbing 9/10 of the inflation the US creates.
Most people don’t understand or even care about such matters. We are populated by dullards.
I’m one of those people who can see things coming down the road 4-5 steps ahead. I saw the Aug. 2011 bonds downgrade ahead.
Told my financial advisor to move a fair amount of my stocks to cash, the most vulnerable ones.
He didn’t do it. He thought I was just a pessimist. After the downgrade, he came to me with an apology. Said he always thought I was his “pessimist”. He said that he now calls me “his realist”.
Been telling people about this for years, telling my girlfriends to forego buying that Birken bag, and buy some gold, or food, or a CCW…. NOPE.
They got the handbag. SO sad.
We all knew what McCarthy would do. Gaetz makes noise but he won’t make a difference.
Even if Gaetz were purposely speaking empty words (but I don’t think he is), his words are making a difference. Trump has made a difference. Palin has made a difference
Even when the disciples pointed out people teaching Jesus who were not of the twelve, Jesus still called it good.
We can be like one of the unknown 10 leaders, or we can be optimistic and faith filled like Joshua and Caleb. The choice is ours. The number of people taking steps to gain our country back is growing every day.
Thank you.
When RFK fights for an issue for the people that is against his party issue, his party does nothing.
When Matt Gaetz fights his own party on clear duplicity of national importance and survival, and in line with his constituents — they are trying to remove him.
RFK is a friend and an actor for the Uniparty. He is playing his role well.
Matt wins more points n my book: He is showing commitment, courage, and princples. He is moving more toward the behavior of true patriots: Pledging his life, fortune, and sacred honor. He is fulfilling his oath to defend the constitution, which nearly every one of his peers, and every citizen in DC is trampling underfoot.

@JoeyMannarinoUS
If there is a Motion to Vacate and Trump doesn’t come in to save McCarthy’s ass like last time, very real possibility we get a new Speaker.
The only thing is if it’s someone like Emmer or Scalise, nothing really changes. Their mentality is no different than McCarthy.
The only one in leadership that has spunk is Stefanik. I wouldn’t mind seeing her as Speaker at all.
Cont….
I just saw Stefanik’s name yesterday on the list of reps who voted to send more $$ to Ukraine.
Maybe Comer or Biggs could get through… Both have been hard workers on the investigations.
But dang, now I have to find that list again to see whether their names are on it!
It’s always somethin with these people…
So grateful to listen to Matt tonight. Full Wolverine Picture should have been included, but I’m not sure Gaetz is in that state yet. I think his point about the Continuing Resolution Budget syndrome probably flies right over many heads.
A Continuing Resolution is NOT a BUDGET! Or something that really becomes a LAW to manage spending. Its a tool to keep money pouring into pet projects and interests without any control over the amount of spending .
I actually longing in some part of me, to read a real Budget from the US GVmint. At the very least it was a basis for proposing an audit.
Endless CR’s is a scam on we the people who pay for it.
Well said, sir!
The “CR” was designed, along with the administrative state, to exempt congress from responsibility the laws they create, and the money they spend. “I voted for this” “that” was the secretaries discretion. You’ll have to take it up with them bulls hit!
