Back on politics, its nice to see at least 1 party in the US believe in democracy and the will of its constituents. Hi Bernie. 1 sure likes to talk about it but now with the new congress only 1 has done anything about it. Remember the embarrassing AOC squad carry on then immediately crumbled and voted for Pelosi. The worst people of politics.
The GOP actually caring who the speaker of the house is as the 3rd person inline for the Presidency and in control of the US purse strings during Biden's lame duck Presidency is a huge deal and quiet refreshing for politics. The newly elected House Speaker McCarthy, although a RINO was held with his feet to the fire to make concessions for the American people and not just allowed another run of the mill uni-party vote. Fantastic job by those GOP members that listened to their constituents and held off their vote until McCarthy agreed to concessions that their voters elected them for. Beautiful to see democracy at work. Strong unified GOP is desperately what the US needs more than ever.
The best concessions of all was to allow a vote of no confidence on the speaker of the house to just 1 member of the house. Truly held accountable. The other great concession was to put actual conservatives and GOP congress members and not RINOs on committee chairs. Cant wait to see these committees commence shortly and see some accountability for the American people. A long way from the farce that was the Pelosi Speakership.
First order of business for McCarthy day 1 as speaker was to repeal the Democrats passing a bill for 87,000 armed IRS agents. Some sanity and reduction in spending, amazing job by the GOP.
