My dearest friends, as much as I do not want to accept certain things, this one is critical to accept. Jim Jordan has shown over time that he is simply a purposefully placed “anger manager” on behalf of the Professionally Republican wing of the administrative state.
Perhaps we lost him before the 2020 election, when the “six ways to Sunday” group fired a shot across his bow with the issues about “widespread sexual abuse in OSU’s wrestling program.” The timing seems to fit with the overall dynamic and how the intelligence apparatus operates. Regardless of whether that was the inflection point, the extreme visibility & promotion of the claims, in combination with the sudden disappearance of them, was the impetus –or if it was something similarly timed– something consequential changed in the political orbit of Jim Jordan.
For the past several years, as more intensity has swirled around us, Representative Jim Jordan has appeared as more of a useful “anger manager,” better positioned to satiate the masses than actually deliver any accountability results. The media appearances seemed to align with that intent, and then a very big datapoint surfaced that few -other than myself- seemed to be concerned about.
When the House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of Government was formed, it was constructed in the lane of the House Judiciary Committee. Meaning, the House Judiciary Committee would be the presumptive authority committee under which the select subcommittee would form. For most casual observers, this seemed to be just a parliamentary decision; however, for me it also held concern.
Those concerns were then realized when it was announced that Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan would also sit as the Chairman of the Select Subcommittee. If you are cynical and/or knowledgeable as to how the Deep State operates, this approach positioned Jordan as a backstop against the issuance of subpoenas that would be against the interests of the Professionally Republican leadership. Trying to protect the flickering flame of hope, I held my powder and watched.
What followed was the worst-case scenario that I previously outlined {Go Deep}. It is no longer a question of whether the Select Subcommittee was constructed in an effort to dissuade, dilute and deflect the outrage by the American people who were witnessing the weaponization of government. That’s exactly what the subcommittee result was as a result of Jim Jordan’s leadership.
I told several people at the time, after watching about 5 months of the subcommittee work, “It’s over.” Meaning there never was a genuine, actionable effort on behalf of the new Republican majority to confront the weaponization of government. It was all another farce – another railcar in a “long train of Republican abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object,” gaslighting and kicking the proverbial can.
As much as I did not want to accept it, we were once again victims.
Kevin McCarthy’s Lucy has unlimited footballs.
Jim Jordan is the carefully positioned guardian of Kevin McCarthy. Jordan was the general selected to hang out with the troops and play the role of steering leader; one foot in the trenches and the other foot in the mahogany meeting room. If he did his job well, he would control the glances by the regulars toward the indulgences of leadership.
Jim Jordan did his job very well.
Jordan is corrupt; perhaps that’s too strong a word; perhaps compromised is a better way to put it. Not corrupt/compromised in a way of directly lying, cheating or stealing, but rather corrupt in the same familiar manner that generates all of the frustration we feel. Corrupt in the sense of satiating the masses while being disingenuous in the extreme of creating ZERO accountability.
Speaker Kevin McCarthy used Jim Jordan for exactly this institutional preservation purpose, and Jordan knows it…. and willingly goes along with it…. and willingly plays the role of “anger manager” on behalf of his leadership. That’s the part that has become more obvious and needs to be accepted.
Once you understand this, the next part makes total sense.
WASHINGTON — Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, on Wednesday became the first lawmaker to announce a bid for speaker of the House, one day after Kevin McCarthy was ousted from the top job in a historic vote.
Asked by reporters in the Capitol if he was running, Jordan replied unequivocally: “Yes.”
“We need to unite the conference,” said Jordan, who had just met with Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., a likely rival for speaker, to inform him of his decision.
Later Wednesday, Jordan sent a letter to colleagues touting his work on immigration and oversight issues on the Judiciary panel and asking for their support.
“Now is the time for our Republican conference to come together to keep our promises to Americans. The problems we face are challenging, but they are not insurmountable. We can focus on the changes that improve the country and unite us in offering real solutions,” Jordan wrote. “But no matter what we do, we must do it together as a conference. I respectfully ask for your support for Speaker of the House of Representatives.”
Jordan said he made his decision after many of his GOP colleagues reached out, urging him to run. A source familiar with Jordan’s thinking said the congressman has repeatedly said that choosing the next speaker “will be a decision for the conference” and now the conference is asking. (read more)
Every element of the professional Republican apparatus in DC, positions their interests for the long game.
When a person grabs the flag at the front of the parade, watch who they hand it to… Often, there’s an intent.




Weaponization went nowhere. Impeachment inquiry was unimpressive. I don’t want this man as speaker. We need someone who is conservative, AND an disruptive leader. Scalise doesn’t qualify either. Nor does Stefanik, or anyone who backed the satus quo.
Trump, perhaps Mace, Gaetz, Tucker. Nunes?
Mathew Whitaker…?
No…sellout. My apologies, Remington, but Matt laid down. I know he had a tough position, but he just laid down.
I agree. Pitiful.
Matt Withering Whitaker?
He had an opportunity to do the right thing, but decided to go AWOL during the darkest of times.
He was the cause of the worst case of hopium I ever had
Look at Matt Rosendale from Montana. How is this man being overlooked? Look at his voting record. He is a constitutionalist.
Rosendale now seeking the Senate seat for Montana would do more good there than in the House Speaker’s chair.
I’ve never heard of the guy but is he an actual “Constitutionalust?” What is he doing about the hundreds of undeclared, illegal, unconstitutional wars the Washington mafia has been involved in since 1945?
He had an interview on Epoch Times if anyone missed it.
https://www.theepochtimes.com/epochtv/rep-matt-rosendale-responds-to-criticism-of-his-vote-on-kevin-mccarthy-and-who-the-next-house-speaker-should-be-atlnow-5504127?ea_src=frontpage&ea_med=lead-story-epochtv-0
Devin Nunes would be the person who could get it done.
Ric Grenell would be great.
Nunez would be the most natural fit.
He has some axes to grind, which wont be a bad thing.
Without a doubt!
Has anyone seen the latest interview with Nunes on John Solomon. The guy supports CRs. 100 percent because he feels that you need to be a “team player”.
No, I do not support Nunes as Speaker. Sorry I am too tired to post the link, I think I saw it on TS. I support only TRUMP for speaker, just like MTG. She is correct, she told Alex Jones that Trump is the only person she trusts.
Didn’t know that, thanks.
The candidate must be elected by the Republican Congress-creatures. Options are very limited.
That’s why Nunes returning to the house as appointed Speaker would be difficult for the House to deny – he’s one of their own…
The next Speaker will be:
-acceptable to Democrats
-acceptable to GOPe
-acceptable to RNC/DNC/RGA and other money changers
Hoping for the best, bracing for the worst
Trump needs to pay attention to his campaign and the lawfare that’s trying to consume him. Speaker would be a millstone around his neck. No, not Trump. Devin Nunes with his previous House experience – he knows how the place works – and his demonstrated courage to move when everyone else was complicit or terrified of the overlords makes him a worthy choice.
Bullseye!
I wouldn’t want to see President Trump lose Nunes. His list of trusted people gets shorter every day it seems.
Also, Nunes used to be part of the Gang of Eight. He knows more than most congressmen or senators ever will.
Weoponisation went SOMEWHERE, most definetly!
WHO did the weoponisation of Govt. committee ‘invite’ to testify, ABOUT being a victim OF Govt. weoponisation?
PDJT, who unequivocally has been THE victim, or recipient of Govt. Weoponisation, and coincidentally IS the Republican front runner?
NO, Instead the REPUBLICAN controlled committee invites RFK JR, who’s credentials for testifying consists of what?
The MSM blackballs his book, and he is denied SS protection.
The hearing features Dems going over the top, in trying to prevent his testimony, in order to bolster his bono fides with the rubes, that he is anti-establishment, and a “Dem Trump”.
That was confirmation for me, of Jr’s purpose working FOR the Uniparty,..as for the committees, I never had any doubt as to their true nature and purpose.
Always, ANY committee hearings overall purpose is to prop up the illusion of two opposing parties, thats,…generic.
Beyond that, its to investigate to exhonerate, insuring the worst aspects of any scandal, as well as the Uniparty leaderships involvement, never comes to light.
EVERY Public hearing of CONgress, starts with those background goals. Promulgating false narratives, particular to the committee, layers on top of that.
You could say they write history, with their hearings…
Some think our champion of the common heartland people, ‘ole Jim, has been compromised, or bullied by the #HimToo dustup. I never thought Jim Jordan was ‘guilty’ for being assistant coach at Ohio State; he was too young and not high enough in the hierarchy, and the college guys were joking too much about it for him to have known that the perv was actually seriously molesting guys.
Or that’s the story I wanna believe. We want to believe in precious Jim because he’s the seemingly most moral or maybe humble and tough at the same time. He is in fact from the heartland, and has seemingly lead a good life.
To me it comes down to, do we still believe in the R’s at all? I think years of making deals in the Swamp will take most of the principles out of anyone.
Remember folks, we are all watched.
I would love for Sundance to maybe create a thread on how to block the government from surveilling you as best as possible. We need as much tech savvy as possible.
I suspect Jim just wants the status quo, since it’s worked well enough for him.
NO, I think not. Have you seen who is hanging out doing interviews with? A group of disinfo shills, ie. Ward, Shurka, etc. No thanks.
I know its in the name of this website, but really have to quit using “conservative” and use MAGA instead.
Perhaps it would be good to start, by actually reviewing what it IS that the Speaker actually DOES, what unique authorities and responsibilities (powers) they have, what qualities (beyond being MAGA) they need, …
Jordans call for “uniting the conference” is a dead give away, and sounds a lot like a call for ‘bipartisanship’.
The other side (RINOS) DO NOT WANT to “work with” MAGA, they HATE us, and fear us, every bit as much as the Dems.
We will hear similar calls for PDJT to accept a VP dictated to him by the RNC, to “Unite the party” in other words another Pence.
Bullshirt, there IS NO UNITING the Republican party; it is fractured beyond repair, and WE, MAGA do not WANT to “work with” or “unite with” those dupliscious, backstabbing barstud RINOS, that are perfectly happy to work WITH Dems, to defeat MAGA.
So no, Jim screw Uniting the R “conference”. Our goal is to expose, and drive from power all of you RINOS, to make room for MAGA primary challengers, who are NOT career politicians.
How much of that might be Jim posturing, maybe partially faking out his adversaries. He works within the system, that’s for sure. And it is corrupt. I 100% agree there is no uniting the R’s; there’s no uniting the country.
All I can say is, we have to be working on defending ourselves from government intrusion at the very tech level. They can’t fully control us if they can’t spy on us so effectively.
We can only judge by action taken — not by shoulda, woulda, coulda — inaction.
AGREE 100%: “Our goal is to expose, and drive from power all of you RINOS, to make room for MAGA primary challengers, who are NOT career politicians.”
Well said D-man!
“… really have to quit using “conservative” and use MAGA instead”
Nah
“America-First” is the better adjective
It’s unambiguous in its intent and meaning, and is unassailable in purpose if one is a true American
What American can go against the sentiment “America-First”?
Without being readily tagged as a Commie or cheese-eating surrender monkey?
MAGA as an adjective is a guttural acronym the Left has already turned into a perjorative
… as amplified by the constructs “Mega-MAGA” and “Ultra-MAGA”
MAGA is too easy to make fun of and cast as an epithet of derision
As indeed we see it being used
.
“America-First” all day long and six ways from Sunday
Can I get a witness?
Amen!
America First indeed.
PDJT said, “They are against America First! Who can be against America First?”
In the list of congress critters who is America first?
The existing leader ship is all owned by Chamber of Commerce. You would think you could pick someone from the eight that voted Kevin McCarthy out but only 5 were needed. Which 3 made the vote to shine their MAGA bona fides? I’d call Ken Buck and Nancy Mace as suspect.
Any other the person, in congress or out, will have to fight the Uniparty and won’t have the authority to tell them NO.
PDJT would be the D9 Cat bulldozer that no could stop..
They are perfectly capable of turning “America First” into a pejorative. I suppose we’d be a bunch of “xenophobes” for a start. Probably also “hateful”, “small- minded” and of course “racist”.
I see your point. But don’t let the opposition choose your terms. Any of them.
Yes! That is the goal. Been saying since I first heard MAGA. The status-quo boys think America as it is, is great for them.
Wish Trump would rebrand for clarity. Maybe it doesn’t fit well on the red cap. How about shortening to A-1, or A 1st in white underlined with a blue stripe.
I’m voting to stick with conservative. That’s what we are trying to do: conserve America and its true values. Conserve freedom, life, and rights to worships
Seriously, the term “conservative” has been lost in the translation. This is due to the multitude who proclaim conservative values and yet totally lack them.
((((((( . ❣️. )))))))
Any chance dutchman, you’d be available for a speaker position?
That was a perfect narrative of what I think! Thank you again Dutchman for reiterating what most MAGA people think and feel. Sundance articulates what is going on underneath the phony words that are being spoken and if we have been following SD’s line of reasoning , we already knew about the behind the scenes scenario.
Why does Tom McClintock of California keep such a low profile?
Nunes! Yes!!!!
It would be a lot of fun to watch Tucker straighten them out.
Not Tucker, he says just the right words to keep the interest. Nunes would be good. They would never vote in Gaetz or Trump.
Byron Donald
Trump said there are a lot of fine people, which includes Jordan. Even if Trump took the job, he wouldn’t do any better. Why people keep thinking that salvation / Reform will come via the GOP is beyond me.
Vote harder to make the steal obvious.
Local protest , same size and location of the PDJT Rally in 2016-2020.
Sooooooooooooo…..reform will come via the GOP is beyond me….scorpion what’s about if army will force reform…????
I am out of ideas when it comes to the US. For work reasons I left in the 80’s (Canada) and then spent about 10 years in Europe as well. Now live in Mexico but still mainly follow US news and have family there. But I think it’s a post-constitutional Republic In Name Only at this point. Maybe many people believe it’s a real republic still and want to rescue it but very hard to see how it can happen after what has transpired since Trump’s 2016 election.
I hope am wrong. Maybe Lindell’s flying drones can save the counting process or some such. But unless the cheating is stopped it doesn’t make any difference how many vote. I believe DJT won in an electoral landslide in 2020. They just closed things down in a few key swing cities and jiggered the vote and Biden slid in with about 60,000 extra. (Pretty much the same as Trump in 2016 come to think of it, but without shutting things down and stuffing extra ballots in the wee hours of the morning.)
Anyway, I hope it all works out somehow, but damned if I can see the path.
In order for something to BE a miracle, there has to be no possible way it could happen, and yet it does.
Like, for the first time in our 250 year history, someone wins the Presidency, who never held any public office, prior nor was a General, returning from successfully winning a war.
Someone with NO previous political experience, at all.
Someone who would have to run against both Political parties, plus the MSM, Big Tech and the I/C.
NEVER happen,…right?
That’s the spirit!!
A man has to rely on availability to get through the door. Once through that door, has can be replaced by better.
Can anyone weigh in on why the ‘Vacate The Chair’ motion was expedited on the day Pelosi WASN’T there?
I have suspicions but would like some other opinions.
Was this a mini-coup?
Maybe it’s because she had a deal with McCarthy to support him in the even he ran into headwinds with his fringe faction (similar to the old Squad for the Dems and he and Ryan helped her then.) So she preferred not to be there. But also, truth is that Feinstein died and there was a funeral so that might be the whole reason right there.
I believe Gaetz played mouse while the cat was out. If the story of moving Pelosi out of the office is true.
I just read that Patty Murray is now Third in command if Biden and Harris eat a bullet? Holy!
Crap!
Hold on a bit longer Mr POTATUS!
I feel sick.
Going into the not so wayback machine:
Pelosi saw fit to go to Feinstein’s funeral, but PLUMB forgot
to go to her own older brother’s funeral. Pressing state business:
an overseas trip to do something to cast more dirt on Trump.
Much more important then the death of your own sibling.
The woman has no soul.
I try to avoid too much partisanship, but I cannot disagree with your last sentence. Most seem like willing dupes easily controlled by fear or greed, but some pigs are more equal than others and Pelosi is right up there. One thing I learned from Trump’s Presidency is to take the notion of Good and Evil more seriously again. For years I ignored it all as somewhat childish. Now I think they are key determinants in both individual and collective journeys we call Life. Every day we either turn towards and develop virtue or we don’t which in turn develops evil. There is no middle ground. Pelosi has a smooth, persuasive voice, but her face is ravaged, not only with old age, but deceit and greed. She looks like a living mask. Her movements are jerky because they are ruled by her conceptual mind, her every act a pose, a performance. She jerks like a puppet on a string dancing to her master, which is materialist, satanic Mind that can never follow or develop Virtue, only vice and Evil. Biden has a similar demonic look.
Trump doesn’t seem that way to me at all, he is a human being. But I cannot decide if he is an actor, a dupe or a truly great leader. He doesn’t talk straight – at least not to me. He never spells anything out in ways that I come away with feeling certain about his intentions. But compared to most of the other jokers in the deck he is a breath of fresh air. But he WAS the President, and under his watch the Republic fell whether or not he was in on it. I find that hard to ignore.
I see it the other way around… She intentionally chose to exit Washington and not be a part of the theater.
I’m not sure we’ll survive until 11/24.
I believe it’s Trump now or never.
Victor Davis Hanson sat with Tucker Carlson recently on Twitter, I highly recomment it.
He says it’s all hands on deck, and if President Trump loses in 2024, it’s unchartered waters.
Never trusted Jordan. Like Chaffetz, all talk and no action. Not one corrupt Deep Stater in jail or even fired. And no subpoena for Hunter?
So true.
Reminds me of Trey Gowdy all bark and no bite.
I dispise him now.
He is awful on Fox as a host.
Drippy.
Yes Jordan talks well, but there is no product as a result.
The media likes to interview him, especially Fox News. You can bet that they will be backing Jordan.
Jimmy manifests the ‘little big man’ complex. Prances around on his toes, yaps like a terrier, but purposely accomplishes zilch.
Such a monstrous disappointing deflector.
America-First, yes and forever.
I was sad to have to give up the hope I had in Jordan.
Others will feel the same.
And most will not have gotten word.
He was acting weird since the 2020 steal tbh. During tough times, we look to.those who previously had shown they were willing to fight. Jim Jordan lost me Jan 21 and he’s been going downhill since for all(or most awake conservatives) to see.
Don’t forget the Kingpin of talk talk and action, that is ALL Hat and No Cattle, Trey Gowdy.
Maybe has been mentioned ? Is Gaetz fundraising off his “achievement” ?
That 2nd paragraph of S re Jordan’s apparent metamorphosis is disturbing – If they don’t have “something” on these people , they can always manufacture a plausible enough story to get it pushed by MSM.
But considering the off -kilter personality types ( as perviously described by S ) that inhabit this universe , not a lot of wholesale/whole cloth manufacturing is probably really needed in that regard ..
If he is, then at least it’s from actual voters.
Not from nameless oligarchs or corporations.
You miss the point , I think …..
All politicians fundraise, particularly off “achievements”
Literally everyone.
That much is self evident.
I’m making the point that Gaetz is much closer to representing us, than for example McCarthy who gets a huge part of his campaign funding not from us, but from “other” sources.
I hope Gaetz is fundraising from this. He doesn’t take money from PACs and other conglomerates. And he is standing up for us. Why shouldn’t people support him and let him know through contributions that we appreciate what he is doing?
Or, we could sit back and say, okay, Gaetz, you’ve done it for us and now you’re on your own to sink or swim without our support?
Is he really “standing up for us “ ? some here don’t agree and think he is part of the “controlled charade “ – I don’t know , but if he is on board ,in a blink of an eye, in supporting Jordan “his mentor “ you have to be weary and wonder … ?
It’s crazy no one likes anyone for speaker except Trump. How will Trump become President? We can’t even figure out who would be a good candidate for speaker.
Not really that hard of a decision for PDJT for President – what’s your next problem ?
Can’t drain the swamp if most people are RINO’s or Democrats
So is that supposed to be news here ? Rhetorical question – I think you forgot to add that “you voted for Trump twice “ …
If Trump REALLY went for it, he could use being Speaker to expose the entire Deep State, the Election Theft, the Insurrection Psyop, everything.
But Trump never actually does stuff like that.
For whatever reason…
What is this “release the bots “ hour on the East Coast –
Shift change!!
😂 Nice
A+
That’s Good –
It’s almost as if he wants them to continue in their corrupt ways so that the people see the corruption for themselves as they awaken (rather than being told about it).
No, you guys have just read way too many Superman comic books where you think the hero goes in and saves everybody.
It took you guys decades of benign neglect to let America fall into such a state. It doesn’t fix itself in a day.
Really?
-fake what???
You the scorpion from the fable?
That’s very good – still remember the then young Forest Whittaker , as the hostage British soldier , telling that fable to his IRA captors in the (strange /haunting ) Crying Game movie in 19990s – the way he told it stayed with me ever since , ha
We have a list of candidates.
Unfortunately none of them are on the Uniparty pre-approved list.
Not dissimilar to PDJTs options for getting nominations through the Senate.
Perhaps Biggs
Robert Barnes for speaker of the house
I like Barnes. Never miss a post, repost, or podcast. BUT…there is a but. I do NOT like the gambling rush currently taking place. It is a back door to the destruction of families and society as much as drugs or alcohol, just prettied up sports fans.
If Americans really want a solid Constitutional Conservative, they need to write their representatives and demand they vote for Congressman Andy Biggs for Speaker. Biggs consistently votes with the Constitution, his wife even tours and give lectures on the Constitution. He receives freedom vote of 100% every year. Let’s get someone in the speakership who will do what Americans want, not another swamp rat or Bushite. I’ve written to mine! Please write to yours!
As for Meadows…I read he testified “against” Trump. Jordan has done nothing for E. Palestine. Scalise has blood cancer, and neither of them get very high freedom votes.
As Sundance has said many times, and I’ve long said the same thing, the majority of Republicans are neo-conservatives…they’re not true Constitutional Conservatives. They just aren’t trustworthy and would rather have a Bushite or a WEF member than an honest to goodness Constitutionalist who continually supported and helped President Trump.
That’s why we the people must write these “servants” and demand they put in who WE WANT!
Scalise is a wh0re. I watched him as Whip under Bonehead (Boehner), round up votes against every even marginally conservative/Constitutional bill, RINO votes.
I thought he might have come to his senses, and had a talk with his Maker as he was fighting for his life (and he said he did), but it’s either worn off, or he’s wallowing in the slop again…
“What shall it profit a man, if he gains the whole world …”.
Great promotion. Probably the only in-house guy I would agree with. If Sundance agreed and promoted him, he would win.
Maybe it was the murder of a nephew that broke Jim. I don’t remember the details but Jordon had stood up to them and the next thiing we knew his nephew (or maybe it was another close family member) but it was a close family member. maybe it was in 2016, or ’17?
I seem to vaguely remember about that.
Yes, his nephew was killed when his car ran off the highway. IMO, Jordan has never been the same since.
https://www.breitbart.com/sports/2018/07/07/rep-jim-jordons-nephew-eli-stickley-killed-in-car-crash/
Either way he’s on the clock. The honeymoon will be over in a few months and he’ll be removed right smack in the middle of the primary season if he doesn’t deliver which he won’t. Who’s next?
Kash Patel?
Patel likes Lee Zeldin
Jim Jordan is the prototype Fox News Republican.
So was McCarthy being canned a known inevitable?
Replace him with someone like Jordan that still has some conservative cache to the normies?
Matt Gaetz seems to think his “mentor, Jim Jordan” would be great in that role!
👇
Makes me itchy around Gaetz suddenly.
These people play the long game.
Jordan could probably get the votes. If Gaetz is the real deal, and I think he is, he must keep the RTV with a single vote. He would have him on a leash and could leverage that very simple maneuver to get a lot of good done. If we somehow overpower the rigged voting and our VSGPDJT becomes President again, perhaps he and Matt might make a very good team.
Jim Jordan is another Trey Gowdy. Talks a good game, is a great showman, and accomplishes nothing.
.
OMG. To me, Jim Jordan = Trey Gowdy. Where was Jordan when there was the train wreck catastrophe in E. Palestine, Ohio? As Ohio Senator JD Vance did? NO. Has he DONE ANYTHING to help the wrongful persecutions of J6 prisoners? NO. Even though he is the head of the Weaponization of Government Committee (I think) and if this is true for how long now? WHERE ARE THE RESUL TS?
Jordan has no shame anymore letting all know he could give a sh*t about citizen’s in his home state, let alone people in this country.
He could be best pals with Hunter Biden. I guess the power “snort” is equivalent to the “crack” snort. Seems to have the same effect. HE SHOULD NOT BECOME SPEAKER.
Why has no one been back to the DC prison where they are held???!!!
Related issue: does President Trump have enough high-powered, sharp attorneys?
Agree, RI.

I wanted to like Jim Jordan with all his “gosh, golly” and all. But it didn’t take long for me to recognize he was the guy to keep everyone treading water, just like Trey Gowdy and others. As Speaker Jordan would be the supreme tread water guy. No, we need a speaker who comes up out of the people. Someone who may not be polished and smooth, but someone with a fire in their belly to do something about salvaging our Republic.
Issa, the Useless One, has commented on this. He hates us, too.
Personally, I like Jim Jordan a lot and think he would make a great Speaker. I hope he gets the job. The only real power that the House has, other than impeachment, is control of the money. That is a gigantic power but it can only be wielded if the Speaker is not worried about the dems stopping funding bills and “shutting down the feral government”. For some reason, almost all of the Washington GOPers are scared out of their pants any time the idea of a government shutdown is even mentioned and fold like a cheap suit to avoid it. I don’t know why. If the dems want to shut the government then so be it. The fact is that the feral government is more destructive than anything and shutting some of it down for a while would be a good thing.
Hold the line on spending and let the dems shut things. If Traitor Joe tries pulling a Barky by closing open-air monuments or national park lookout spaces or whatever then just start impeaching Traitor Joe, the entire cabinet, and bucketfuls of his treasonous subordinates.
I trust that Jordan knows what has to be done and will do it as Speaker. I like him and I trust him.
The only real power that the House has … is control of the money
Which they give up by acceding to an an omnibus spending bill
Yes. That, and being scared to death of the hint of a “government shutdown”.
That vacation over the summer was a near criminal act. I was livid at the time. It was unbelievable – and it was designed to force the deadline and allow McCarthy to utilize dem votes to pass Biden’s spending free-for-all … once again. But, no surprise. McCarthy should have been removed from the Speakership when he surrendered on the debt ceiling. And to add insult to injury, McCarthy and his idiot buddies ran tv ads and sent me tons of emails trying to claim that McCarthy pwn3d the dems on that. That infuriated me even more.
DOES Rep SCALISE Believe IN GOD ? Dodged Death ONCE, NOW ” Cancer of the Blood “…
LOAD HIM INTO the SPEAKER’S CHAIR and REMIND HIM that The HERE AFTER is BEING WEIGHED.
Negotiate for Jim JORDAN’s REPLACEMENT on the Government Oversight Committee as a TRIBUTE and
Get RID of
McHenry and that SWAMP CREATION Garret GRAVES.
Not Jordan PLEASE, imo he is a bragger and strikes me as quite phony.
Pardon me for jumping in, but to be honest: What chance in Hades do we have of the Vast Majority of Deep State RINO’s putting someone that WE want as speaker? It’s less likely that Joe Biden winning the 2020 election after being down by millions in six swing states at 11PM election night.
We will be seeing a similar show down, after PDJT gets the nomination, on the issue of his VP.
The RNC won’t want anyone MAGA, and PDJT would be a special kind of fool to take anyone the RNC was willing to accept.
This is where MAGA has to PUSH, HARD and NOT listen to siren calls for Unity; the RINOS do NOT want Unity with MAGA, and MAGA would be foolish to compromise with those serial backstabbers.
Many of us seem to have short memories.

Steve Scalise; shot by an asshole commie. Oddly never mentions it or utilizes it as a talking point, guess he got the message to play (their) ball. Don’t trust Steve Scalise.
Gaetz; news media allows him to speak, behaves like civilized human beings, “c’mon man” something is up.
I met Jim Jordan a few times growing up. My high school was one of the many high schools he would come spend a week at during the summer to work w/the kids to hone their wrestling skills. Whatever happened, it’s less likely he’s sold out and more likely his family is being targeted/threatened/held hostage.
Go down the line, the left are all willing perverts/criminals who would do ‘who knows what’ to gain notoriety vs Republicans who I can only presume are either compromised/corrupt or they haven’t been able to get them in a small private plane to get rid of them.
I’ll keep saying it till the lightbulb comes on, if they wanted Trump gone, he’d be gone so why is he still here? If your knee jerk answer is “God is protecting him”, you may need to consider they’re leveraging our beliefs against us.
I don’t know how it all ends but if it was a math problem, the sum appears to be a negative number.
cause they will get their insurrection.
MTG and Bobert sure are a disappointment.
Both MTG and Boebert are silly unserious women who are too weak to resist the swamp, yet want to prance around for the cameras touting their supposed strength.
And of course, their proximity to President Trump.
Both MTG and Boebert allowed money and celebrity to trash their respective marriages. I can’t imagine what their children are having to endure.
Soon after, their backstabbing of America First/MAGA commenced.
& they present themselves as “trashy”
except for extraordinary, women should NOT be in executive positions in government or military.
men and women ARE different, and were designed so. Christian women tend to ignore the role designed for women.
if you want the creatures to behave differently, you need to control their environment. there isn’t one among us that I would trust to send off into the swamp to stay true to principle.
I like Kash, DTjr., Kari Lake, Dan Bongino, or Steve Bannon
Actually Trump is my #1 pick. Then he could appoint Gaetz after he gets elected president.
This video, while from a show and network I detest, is nevertheless instructive. Watch the look on Jordan’s face. Wrestlin’ man sure looked like he found himself in a headlock:
GONAP – the Grand Old No Accountability Party.
Go take a nap….
Let them vote no, and get it on record again for all to see.
^^^^^This.
That is a significant part of the value in a Trump nomination for SOH.
Of course, some of the compromised and the corrupt will probably support him in order to maintain or repair camouflage for home district voters.
But if enough do, he wins.
We might not reveal all the members who have thoroughly become creatures of the swamp. We might not win SOH. But drips of water wear away rock. (And DJT is more like a fire hose.)
He’s to vanilla, we need someone who will get things done, push conservative principles.
Republican legislators are flaccid. There is either a lack of desire or an inability to perform.
As a result, their perpetual empty promises and ineffectiveness are
expediting the number of embittered constituents. We are not silenced.
We are not duped.
We are not going away.
Congress, we SEE you!
The people we hang our hopes on…remember Trey Gowdy??? But there is something to be said about compromise….it seems to eat you from within. Look at what Jim Jordan looks like now, gaunt, pale, etc., as opposed to what he looked like a few years ago.
Jim Jordan has proven that he is not up to the task. I don’t see the fire nor the commitment. I hope that the days of the Republican Party are limited. They had decades to defeat the enemy and their record speaks for itself.
I bet that the DEMS do a thorough background check on all new Republicans hoping to find some dirt on them so they can threaten them when they do not tow the line. Suggest the Republicans do the same. Get the dirt on them and use it.
the only problem with that is: The more “slimy” they are the more “qualified” ,as far as Dem voters are concerned
Removing the “compromised” from DC will accomplish nothing if the reason everyone (nearly) who steps into DC is immediately compromised isn’t surgically removed also.
Strangely silent from all quarters about what that reason actually is…
I nominate Devon Nunes
Did we just get a new “Anger Management” operation with Gaetz/Vacate?
If they didn’t vote to get rid of McCarthy then they are complicate with his rule. Not any of them.
Yep.
To determine whether or not an elected politician or highly placed government employee is doing the right thing there is only one test: what has he done in terms of a concrete result? That test as applied to Bill Barr identified him as a Swamp Rat early on. Unfortunately, Jordan fails the concrete result test. Right now, Matt Gaetz is the only elected official currently in office who passes the concrete result test. Jordan talks a good game but is not helping anyone but himself.
Trump has told us over and over he “has the receipts”. Whatever happens will be largely as he needs to reveal more and more of the Deep State. How many more are now seeing even our so called “allies” in Congress are not what they appear to be, i.e. Jim Jordan.? Trump hand picked McCarthy. He served a purpose. If he was Uniparty, why did the Democrats oust him? If Trump really wants the Speaker position, he’ll get the votes if he has the goods on them. They may protest and postulate, but most in Congress are compromised in some way. I remember reading several years ago about a young Congressman invited to a “party” as a welcome to Washington gesture. He did not go. He knew if he did, “they” would own him by compromising him. The evolving reveal at this time is the corrupt rot of our two parties. We all need to see this. When Kennedy leaves the legacy of the Kennedy Democrats, the fallout will be nuclear to hardcore Dems. If Trump were to take the Speaker role, the controlled demolition will be put in motion sooner rather than later. If someone else is placed there, we have more Swamp creatures to be outed that may surprise/disappoint us. The Art of War. Just an opinion.
Trump didn’t handpick McCarthy. That’s just MSM koolaid.
The uniparty has taken control of so called conservative talk show hosts. On Cape Cod I have moved on from rinocrat Howie Carr. Such a money grubbing group of malcontents control the air waves. Truly sad, but predictable.
Thanks to SUNDANCE and GAETZ, the large amount of Americans that support a MAGA type candidate, and their ideals, now understand the importance of Congress, and how members vote.
How telling was it for all but a small group of Republicans to vote Against removing McCARTHY, the Uniparty Actor playing the part of House Speaker?
Combine that with any number of previous Votes, including where over 380 members of Congress voted Against Investigating Claims of 2020 Election Interference.

Should TRUMP be nominated for Speaker, a majority of Americans will be watching the Vote, noting which members vote AGAINST not just T and his America First Agenda, but We The People.
I know Jim Jordan. I too have become skeptical. Too much performance and too little delivered.
Remember the hidden J6 footage? Remember how McCarthy promised that we would all get to see it? Notice how fast the tapes disappeared again once Tucker started finding things? Jordan didn’t say a word. Trey Gowdy 2.0. The House version of Flimsey Gayman in the Senate.
