Thanks for the link. I’m good with him. Now, let’s get ‘er done! "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

^^^ In some ways a better choice than Jim Jordan. At this point, he’s the best possible. Get ‘R done! "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

IIRC, he has a better Liberty score than Donalds (who many were calling for before Emmers was anointed) _______________________ “The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.” Ayn Rand “If we relinquish our rights because of fear, what is it exactly, then, we are fighting for?” Sen.

You recall incorrectly...Byron Donalds has a 'Liberty Score' of 100! Liberty Score is one measure, but I'm not sure how valid it is, or how much weight we should put in it. For example, Dan Crenshaw has a Liberty Score of 74 as well, and he's not 'really' defending ANYBODY's Liberty...Just sayin' Anyway, Mike Johnson will probably garner more widespread from the GOP caucus, even pulling in the establishment RINOs because he's got more 'experience' in DC, and at the same time has good credentials. He's an ardent Trump supporter, and has been there and/or been instrumental on a lot of the right things during his tenure. I presume Trump will endorse him for Speaker, and with that, he'll do just fine.  ____________________________________________________________ If Some is Good, and More is Better.....then Too Much, is Just Enough !!

Trump should just lay low and support him behind the scenes. It only takes 4 anti-Trumpers to defeat him. They will do it just to spite Trump. "Some things are apparent.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) joined the War Room with Steve Bannon on Wednesday morning following the voting last evening for the next Republican Speaker-designate. During their conversation Matt Gaetz revealed the devious actions of the Old Guard Republicans in their attempts to derail Mike Johnson’s vote. According to Matt Gaetz, Kevin McCarthy was hiding in the background actively working to sabotage the candidates who were running to replace him. So as Emmer is withdrawing, Mark Molinaro, a moderate New York freshman Republican, stands up at the microphone and says, well, instead of restarting this process and having a candidate forum and sending everybody home for a good cry, let’s just take a non binding poll on where people would be on the person who came in second to Tom Emmer, and that was Mike Johnson. And Elise Stefanik said, well, that’s against the rules. The rules don’t contemplate it. We can’t do that. And brilliantly Mark Molinaro says, then I move for unanimous consent that the rules be waived, and we take a poll on whether or not Mike Johnson could be our Speaker nominee. And guess who objects to that unanimous consent request? — Kevin McCarthy! Kevin McCarthy stands up and says, I object to doing a roll call on Mike Johnson. And Mike Johnson was exasperated. All the times Johnson had voted for McCarthy, had carried his water, maybe even voted for some bills he didn’t like because he was working toward the Republican conference’s stated objectives under McCarthy. And here was the thing — It showed everyone that it was actually McCarthy who was working to knife Scalise. It was actually McCarthy who was working to knife Jim Jordan. It was McCarthy working to knife everyone, and he hadn’t yet figured out a way to knife Mike Johnson. And so he was worried that there was going to be this great unifying moment, and he scuttled the unifying moment. So because of McCarthy’s objection, we had to have this three hour delay, and candidates announce again, have another form, and guess what happens during that delay? Steve Patrick McHenry runs to the House floor, opens it up out of recess, and then adjourns till noon today. Now, why did he do that? Because they were setting up a play to block Mike Johnson with write in votes in the intra conference process for Kevin McCarthy. Watch: "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Alright, sooo what were they working on again? Oh yeah, 'Regular Order'...Let's focus on getting back to that! Also, if you look at this objectively, this is a YUUGE Victory for the American People, and an even bigger defeat for the Uni-Party Deep State Establishment, a.k.a. the Swamp! Mike Johnson is a MAJOR upgrade over McCarthy, and honestly, he's likely a better pick for Speaker than Scalise OR Jordan! ____________________________________________________________ If Some is Good, and More is Better.....then Too Much, is Just Enough !!
