The House rules haven’t had a change… any amendments to the rules would need to be presented in a motion and voted on by the full House.

In principle he’s susceptible to the same threats as McCarthy. However since he’s loved by the Treason Causcus and the “moderates” fear making the party look inept with another speaker battle…

Again? Thought they called for this back when Scalise was the designee after the first internal vote…

It’s a low day today… struggling hard with gender issues in particular, along with some partner stuff.

Feeling like shit, a bit worthless, that I don’t know who or what I am.

Coming soon… “I’m a very strong voice for women, and the allegations were about male wrestlers so they don’t count. Men can be raped? Huh?”

Technically that’s just a GOP rule… and we know what their reaction is to things like that…

Huh? How does this make any sense?

There’s a number of unlisted offices that can be assigned to various people who need them… the complex is large.

And Hoyer wasn’t ever Speaker so… ?

I guess offices were left empty since Ryan resigned rather than stay as a Member?

Also blaming the Democratic members for the Republican party pushing through rules that allowed one of their more insane to issue the removal vote, and that it was Republicans that spoke in the debate and then basically removed him…

It’s petty madness.

I mean… members can still nominate him… and he is known to go back on what he’s said in the recent past when it suits him anyway …

Seeing as this has never happened in US history before… well it’s going to be a clusterfuck that the parliamentarian will no doubt have to weigh in on multiple times.

No… she wasn’t.

It is her office, or at least it was.

There are a number of unlisted offices that can be assigned. It is customary to allow a Speaker to retain one of these if they leave that role.

Maybe you’re the one that should do some actual research?

McCarthy was the compromise candidate though…

Had a bit of a conflict with the other half last night. Didn’t sleep well. Feeling exhausted now.

Not really sure how to resolve things and feeling worried about it all.

So your implication here is that a major military counter strike was predicated on the network being extended just as the drones were headed to their targets?

That the strike plan was put into action, and then a request was made to extend the network whilst they were already moving and as they were approaching a point of losing contact?

Does that really make sense to you?

Nope it was confirmed that he’s using a local bondsman.

I’m actually surprised they named the grand jury given how insane the maga cultists are.

Jenna Ellis … she’s been suspiciously absent from a lot of investigation and reporting … she dodged the DoJ (so far) and was only mentioned briefly in the Jan 6th Committee hearings.

Good to see that she hasn’t been missed off…

At least for these charges the ability to pardon is limited. The governor doesn’t have that power.
