Centrist GOP effort to reinstate McCarthy picks up steam after Israel attacks. Reinstalling the Californian, the thinking goes, is the only way to quickly deliver aid to Israel.

  2. I’d love to hear the mental gymnastics from those who voted to oust him and then turn around and vote him back in.

  3. Why? Seriously, why should the democrats help elect him again when he repeatedly backstabs and renegs on agreements? Why should we deliver aid to Israel? They are already one of the foremost powers in the Middle east they can take care of themselves.

  6. Not only is the House crippled by the GOP, on the Senate side you have the arsonists Tuberville and Hawley actively handicapping our military.

    It should be clear to everyone by now, the GOP hurts the country, and in critical ways. I hope this is clear come election day. We can’t have clowns running the country.

  7. Holy shit NOW they care about foreign military aid?

    Clowns.

  8. Why would Israel need Aid? Israel is far more powerful than Hamas is.

  9. Kevin does suck but he is the best of the GOP choices, there knee deep in shit and it’s raining shit. There all just liars for trump and get what they deserve, hopefully somehow they return to being honest some day.

  10. The article completely misses another very important factor in this new Isreal war. Trump blabbed about Isreal secrets to Russia, and it is very probable this information reached Hamas. Trump is not just an American disaster, he is messing up the world.

  12. You put the alt-right in, you put the alt-right out

    You put the alt-right in and you shake it all about…

  13. I can’t wait for the QFloozies to accuse the deep state of arranging the attack on Israel just to get RINO McCarthy back in office.

  15. Dems should definitely NOT help put him back in. Israel doesn’t need aid. Why the fuck do we always send them cash when they have the best military (built from our previous aid) in the Middle East?

  16. Gee. There’s a downside to paralyzing the government. Whodathunk?

  17. Last time it took them 15 rounds of voting to elect a Speaker. I have faith in the GOP they can beat that number.

  19. Hakeem Jeffries is a better choice if the goal is a functional government. It would only take a handful of the so called “ moderate Republicans” to support him. The Israel situation emphasizes the need for a government that works

  21. I forgot that congress can’t do anything without a speaker. But then again, the majority in the House aren’t really down for doing anything except complaining.

  22. *fuck off with the radical centrism*

    go to the floor today and sit everybody in the house until they do their goddamn job, and elect someone who can actually lead then amend the fucking rules so there isn’t a metaphorical hand grenade up their ass.

    if the GOP cares about Israel then the morally correct thing to do *would be to share power with the democrats*

  23. What about “America First” why send money to another nation who’s boarders have just been overrun and women and children have been massacred in basements with indiscriminate civilian rocket attacks…

  26. Hopefully aid for Ukraine is tied to any effort here.

  28. He can reach across the aisle with some concessions of his own this time.

  30. Why do they want to help Israel? I thought they didn’t want to send aid to other countries under attack, like Ukraine?

  32. There is a reason so much foreign dark money flows into Republican Party campaigns and why so much foreign espionage is devoted to undermining their Democratic Party opponents. The very reason these republicans are in office is to cripple the ability of Congress to act. It is well known by our and our allies foreign adversaries that the Republican Party is the key to destroying the United States.

  34. No. They can wait for these a-holes to get their act together, just like the rest of us.

  35. Israel is one of the largest weapons producers in the world with a strong economy. What the hell do they need aid for? How about spend that money here so I can have affordable healthcare instead of worrying about getting hurt and owing money for the rest of my damn life… god damn clowns

  36. If you don’t support aid for Ukraine why support it for Israel?

  37. Why does the gop want to fund Israel but not Ukraine? This is some fucking bullshit!

  39. That would be hilarious. I would almost consider going to church if he was reinstated. Once.

  40. They may have gotten a good look at the douchebags looking to be his replacement.

  41. Why do we need to give aid to Israel? We already give them tons of money. They have all the weapons they need. They got themselves in to this mess after decades of BS. I don’t see why we need to give them anything else. Let them fight with what they have.

  42. I wonder if Hamas attacked specifically because the US government I handicapped without a House Speaker?

  43. So the people who voted not to remove McCarthy want him reinstated? Shocker.

  44. So tired of funding other countries when we can’t even find our own.

  45. Imagine getting back to a functional government to send aid to a minor country that already gets tons of aid to fight a minor scuffle…

    It’s shocking that they would even consider this…

    clown show.

  46. I’m dying to hear their rationale on giving Israel aid but not Ukraine
