SCOOP: Rep. Gaetz is privately pitching some House Dems to help him oust McCarthy from the speakership. “He’s been talking to everybody about it,” Jayapal told us.“I told him in our caucus, in the Progressive Caucus, we’re not planning to save McCarthy... politico.com/live-updates/2…
Gaetz denies this to be the case. But we have three Dem who say he was specifically reaching out for this purpose. Jaypal confirmed it to @DaniellaMicaela this AM. W/ Daniella and @sarahnferris
@Olivia_Beavers >> This Republican expressed the hope that the House Ethics Committee’s investigation into Gaetz will end with a finding that can allow his party to “kick his ass back to Florida.” wait wut
To vote for 4 trillion more debt for America over 2 years adding to 32 trillion National debt with interest payment of 1 trillion a year will hurt the US DOLLAR,drive inflation,print more money we don't have lowering the VALUE of US dollar,raise interest rates,continue worldwide sell off of our dollar,hurting America and Americans. Easy fact to understand even for a child.
@Olivia_Beavers @JacquiHeinrich Rep. Gaetz needs to just go, not helpful. Any power play allied with Dems should lose any support he hopes to garner for any future elected office.
@Olivia_Beavers They should kick him out of the Conference now, he’s been a gift to Democrats by forcing a shutdown
@Olivia_Beavers Good grief - that would be a disaster! Might I propose #SpeakerJeffries ?
@Olivia_Beavers W E A K. If he had the votes on his own side of the aisle, he'd do it already.
@Olivia_Beavers Do I believe Jayapal? That would be a NO.
@Olivia_Beavers The funny thing is, even if they do help get rid of McCarthy, @RepMattGaetz wouldn’t be even close to enough votes to replace him.
