Mary Johnson The way it's "supposed to be" is to have a functional government. Giving ONE member the ability to vacate the chair can cause vast amounts of disruption and should only be utilized for a good reason, not because some extremist has beef with a decision that they may make in the future. And over the last 10 years, both parties (though I'd have to say more Republicans) have introduced harder-line members to their caucus. And now with this Republican-majority Congress, this hard-line element will now permeate into the Rules committee dictating House procedures. This is just inviting chaos and dysfunction, the complete opposite of what voters expect out of their government.


Shawn Hinks I don't agree! I love everyone and I believe that everyone has a right in any supporting party to say and feel what they desire. In saying that, wrong is wrong and right is right in any circumstance. Our household embraces right and left and I understand that things can get emotional at times but there was no need to ACT like thugs. It is crazy how me voicing MY opinion triggered you guys and I the one YOU call leftist am being judged. I don't judge anyone but as a citizen I have a right to voice my opinion which is, They acted a da** fool in there last night!!!


Michel R Waldner it takes a bit of time cleaning up REPUBLICAN messes. Already seeing improvement though, more jobs, lower unemployment. Once again the middle class will pay for the luxuries of the wealthy, thanks to increased interest rates, increased costs of staples, food, housing, everything, in fact.
Thanks to the republican party, trump and his cronies, millions died due to covid deniers, anti vaxers (of course trump and his cronies all got their vaccinations and are still getting them). Bridges that are collapsing due to lack of maintenance... because Republicans are being fiscally responsible, as they give themselves pay raises, fantastic healthcare and of course reduced taxes... because "trickle down economics" works so well!!!
I have very little respect for any politician BUT the Republicans are the worse of the worse and if you can't see that, you just don't want to.
Quite frankly, I'm amazed at how quickly President Biden and his democratic team are putting America back together. Pity! A couple more years of responsible government, actually working together for America, would have put America back in the black. Then, as usual, Republicans would be reelected... and down the sewer America goes!


Respected sir, publish in news main work of security system of United nation done at here at chandrakona road, paschim medinipur, west Bengal, india. Our business is largest throughout the world ,established and spread by my father dilip kumar roy before gat deal, controlled by London based business team and virtual materials group, canada, other example are i
T. C. Limited, hindustan uniliver limited, etc. Our civilization reach in its finale stage. Implemented within two years. Permission have been granted. So i inform secretary general of United nation to inform space research scientist of every country including nasa and isro to publish our work about space science in news. Inform him to arrange infrastructure for landing. Fundamental concept of science and education have been changed.Supporting documents are given at my Facebook profile. Major weapons of every powerful country have been gone under controll outside of respective country. So Russia cannot use his full strength on ukraine.


Jason Klekovic So you believe in not working with people in your own party to achieve a goal. Really don't know your thought process or your age but trust me, you have a lot to learn. I thought Dems campaigned on "saving our democracy." They feigned and cried daily during the campaign. What went on in the House with vigorous debate, exchange of ideas, free speech is the epitome of the democratic process. Or is "saving our democracy," Pelosi handpicking her successor and the rest of the Dem members not allowed to differ, speak, vote their choice but sit down and be quiet. It can't be both. You can't keep redefining words and phrases to suit your narrative or feel good about yourself!


No shame here! You’d think he’d just won the first round instead of 15. Now you’ll have 2 years of chaos and anarchy. He sold his soul and put anti-government
misfits into high positions of government just so he could become speaker. More Freedom Caucus members on rules committees. To think someone like MTG sitting on a committee is pretty scary! Jim Jordan wants to be chairman on a committee…have you people lost your minds?
Your country needs a complete overhaul, it’s not just anarchists that have highjacked your country, feelings of hatred have festered since the end of the civil war.
How the Republicans can think this is a good thing is beyond the pale. Humiliation and shame are completely devoid from their vocabulary.

Robyn Ann Hello I love your comment, I can guess that such comment comes only from nice and caring people like you..I'm really much impressed about your profile and personalities. I also admire your good sense of humor on here. I don't normally write in the comment section, but I think you deserve this compliment....I'll like to be your friend...yet, I've tried sending you a request several times but it doesn't go through. I would be so happy if you can just click on my profile and send me a request, but if you find this message embarrassing, please forgive my manners, have a safe day


10ºYeah, I am sure the venezuelans and haitians sat in their living rooms watching that US presidential debate when Biden said inhumane treatment would stop, just as I know most on the right LOVE making orphans out of children and keeping them sleeping on the floor in cages. The speed with which you responded also betrays one thing…you have no interest is examining the root causes or solutions that may actually be effective since you clearly couldn’t have read a single one of the thought provoking links I provided you.

A wall will not free anyone up, which you would know if you had bothered look past the headlines. NOT throwing them back over the border just to try two and three times will free up CBP. Increasing staffing including immigration judges will free up CBP (which Biden has and is still doing). No, you like argument without the benefit of fact. Ignoring reality isn’t going to help.
