The more radical R’s are running around shitting all over the commons because the Speaker blew off their threats. Looks to me like Biden and the D leadership have offered him cover and any ‘Motion to Vacate’ will fail.
I think the MTG’s and Gaetz’ of the world know this as well and won’t move that motion. They will however retreat to the shadows of their lair and scheme anew. To them it’s less about righteousness and more about power.
I may (or not) agree with the policy/funding decisions that were considered and passed. Those are not the subject of this screed; the uncivil and mindless thumping by R’s and D’s is. They (both sides) have turned the The Peoples House into a circus worthy of our ridicule.
The petty grabs for power and overt intimidation(s) sprawled out before a nation of sheep. 70 percent of the population has bought into the we/they, R v D shit show and have so thoroughly socialized their R-ness or D-ness that they cannot retract for fear of being abandoned by their herd.
So MTG, along with her sycophant Gaetz, would be wise to heed the words of the accidental sage Zack Van:
“Bullying builds character like nuclear waste creates superheroes. It’s a rare occurrence and often does much more damage than endowment”.
