Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., came out in opposition to the Senate deal on DHS on Friday, saying he wouldn’t put the bill on the floor. Many House Republicans privately think he’s making a mistake.
After a week of false starts toward ending the Department of Homeland Security shutdown, House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., delivered the biggest setback yet on Friday, telling his conference that he wouldn’t bring the Senate deal, passed just hours earlier with unanimous support, to the House floor.
Behind closed doors, many House Republicans are already questioning the speaker’s decision.
On a GOP members-only conference call on Friday, Johnson came out in opposition to the Senate bill.
“We are not gonna eat the crap sandwich the Senate sent us,” Johnson told House Republicans, according to a source on the line.
Republican pussies could literally remove his ass from the speakership and have Trump impeached and removed from office lickity split, but they would rather privately grumble anonymously until they retire.
Personally, I think the GOP is run entirely by a small cabal that dictates everything. If you go far enough in that org, someone has something on you to make you dance.

Pussy is not a insult. You scrotum.
I mean it is an insult, you can twist it like Betty White and not want it to be one but it is definitely an insult. Has been a very long time.
In the immortal words of Betty White.
“I don’t know why ‘pussy’ is used to mean someone who is weak. I’ve got one, and that thing can take a pounding!”
Valid point but Betty White never said that.
Please, “bawbag” is the polite term.

Welp, you fuckin’ own that shit, assholes, unless you plan to do something about it. This is who you are.
Oh no! Not concerns! What ever will poor little Mikey do about some concerns??
So basically the House GOP have all turned into Susan fucking Collins. We are absolutely in the dumbest, worst, most embarrassing timeline.
At this point I don’t give a shit. Anyone that sticks an R next to their name is complicit.
Nurses hate this.
There is not a single person in this system with meritocratic validity, aka not born into wealth. The societal level nepotism of inherited wealth is the cause of all present problems. It is the common thread through every problem name you know. Intelligence is not hereditary in humans, but wealth is. This is the case in every western country except Japan.
Carcetti was actually a decent mayor though, if I recall. He at least had good intentions, even though the system was broken.

He wanted to do good things, but when he found out the school system was in a massive amount of debt and that the only way to keep the city running without doing extreme austerity would have been to take a bail out from the state that would’ve hurt his campaign for governor, he did the extreme austerity and let the city suffer instead of sacrifice his personal ambitions
Why don’t they boot his ass.
You know why
During the private conference call with House Republicans, Johnson’s own members criticized the speaker’s plan, according to the source on the line who was granted anonymity to share the private discussions.
That’s a real Profile in Courage right there.
“We’re doing the wrong thing, but I will go along with it because I’m afraid to speak out publicly. I mean, you’ve seen the crazies who vote for me, right? One of them might pop me…”
Speaking about courage, Ben Shapiro is now able to enlist thanks to the new cap on age limits. Just putting that out there.
Ben Shapiro has a medical condition called “Cringe AF” that prevents him from serving.
Im sure we can still find him a slot clearing mine fields.
I totally missed that this happened, so TSA still isn’t getting paid? Lines for Easter are going to be insane.
