Oops. Apparently Jordan doesn’t like the bow tie guy idea.

More like Matt Gaetz doesn't like the bow-tie guy.

Welcome to the resistance Sydney Powell?

So that leaves Ken Chesebro by himself for his trial (he and Powell were the only ones who initially requested a speedy trial) in Fulton County next week. We'll see if he also flips on the Donald or whether he risks going to trial and potential prison time.

Meh, lot of posturing. Just vote for Jordan and get on with it or nominate someone else.

I like your second idea.
Somewhere in that caucus there must be a reasonable person who didn't take part in the insurrection, or refused to comply with his/her own body's subpoena, and is not under suspicion of turning a blind eye to sex crimes.
I think Jordan's strong arm tactics backfired with crazies calling Republicans and threatening them. Upset some of them for sure.
We need some one there in times like these.

Meh, your party isn’t in power in the House.

What Insurrection? The one yesterday? Or was that (D)ifferent?

Per a senior GOP source, “Ferguson told the conference that he‘s had to have a sheriff stationed at his daughter’s school over death threats from the far right. Also one at his house.”

And he's a Republican. (leopards eating faces)

What are your thoughts on yesterday’s insurrection?

[paulxu]

Absent being violently suppressed, there shouldn’t be insurrections.

What are your thoughts about the one on Jan 6th?

25 voted against Jordan this round. Why does he insist on embarrassing himself like this?

One thing I do like about this, is that the party is pushing back against the crazy wing. That’s a good thing imo.

[GoMuskies]

Oh, for sure. I'd vote against Jordan if I had a vote.
