Erick, I imagine you'll get to this on your show, but do you have any people that you would endorse for Speaker? Thanks from a long time listener.

"I don’t know that McConnell can get Walker across the finish line..."

Considering you thought Walker would likely win without a run-off, plus thought there would be a red wave, and that Biden wouldn't win GA, I'm feeling better about Walker's chances today. 😉

All three voters in our household voted for Herschel.

Thanks for the heads up about the horrific attempt to fund ‘journalism’. This is one reason I subscribe. Also, y’all go vote for Herschel if you legally can. I just did. Need to make the progressive left’s job as hard as possible.

Journalism preservation act? What journalism? There have been very few acts of journalism that have made it to the MSM in recent years. Funding the current setup is nuts.

With the death of a Republican congressman, if just 5 Republicans don't vote for McCarthy - whether they don't vote at all or vote for someone else - and all Dems vote for Jeffries, he's your new Speaker, isnt he?

Of course this means the behind the scenes arm-twisting, batteries in sock beatings, threats, and candyman-like promises of power, will work. McCarthy is the Speaker a House with Marjorie Taylor-Greene and her ilk deserve. Let the next four years be a bloody knife fight that makes Brutus and Caesar seem like the Muppets.

First, Republican Senators backed the RMA. Then, House Republicans met secretly to vote back in earmarks. Now, they want to give the MSM a new source of funding? Which party did we just vote in to take the House, and hopefully hold the Senate to 50-50? If this is what Republicans are doing to us, imagine what the Dems will do.

Rinos in sheep's clothing, but rinos none the less.

Moderate RINOs are as loathsome as the most detestable progressives.

If the GOP were a business, the board of directors would fire the leadership for this horrible performance. Hey wait…aren’t we the board of directors?!?
