  • No balls Mike is never going to be speaker of the house, he doesn't have the balls to put the US before his master.

    "I'm going to do my job." Since when... ??!
  • I'm kind of supportive of the houses inability to get anything done because, unlike this guy, this American DOES NOT think house repub's agenda is in the best interest of the American people. The more they're unable to do anything, the less damage they are going to cause.

    "I'm going to do my job...", well its been 6 months, shouldn't you have started already?

    The GOP looks like a clown car going around in circles, with no brakes, no steering wheel, and engulfed in flames. 😅 Vote 💙 all the way through. 🇺🇸

    After Arizona basically guaranteeing President Joe Bidens reelection mikes ouster by MTG is beautiful 🎉
  • @michaelbray109
    He won’t resign. He will be ousted for a two-day story line to distract from Donnie’s spank trial.
  • @shitzuation
    This is what rule by the Christian Taliban looks like
  • Did he say " IN THE BEST INTEREST of the American People " Is this a scene from SNL?
  • The Dems could win the Speakership with Jeffries if this keeps up much longer...
