They are lies, not embellishments. To embellish, is to say you got an A instead of an A-. Lying is saying you graduated from a college you didn't even attend. If he had any shame at all, he wouldn't be there — Sen. Mitt Romney #quote #GeorgeSantos #RepublicanDysfunction #shameful

The real issue is, do the #Republicans have a plan and what is that plan? Some Republicans say they’re going to cut #SocialSecurity and #Medicare. Some say they aren’t — Ron Klain #quote #DebtLimit #ChaosCaucus #RightWingGOP #RepublicanDysfunction

And right now, we're watching this RINO class of our party try to go into all of these small legislative districts and claw back control. And I want the grassroots to know: Don't give them a damn inch — Kari Lake #quote #KariLakeLoser #RepublicanDysfunction #MAGA #Extremist

Trump’s scandals weren’t just #Trump scandals. Once Republicans tolerated & excused them they became #Republican scandals. Similarly (though in a first time) the GOP refusal to hold #Santos accountable makes the Santos scandals Republican scandals — @BillKristol #quote #scandals #Trumpism #RepublicanDysfunction

#McCarthy: To get the votes, he surrendered to demands of a fringe element of the GOP. Americans want Congress to build on the historic bipartisan achievements from the last two years, not more gridlock — Sen Charles Schumer #quote #ChaosCaucus #RepublicanDysfunction #SINO

I hate the current GOP
All they care about is infamy
This is EXACTLY what Gaetz & Boebert wanted
A GD TV twist that had us all glued to the freaking boob toob.
Ass-freaking-holes
Narcissism & Nihilism that’s where we are.
Goodnight nurse. And fuck you.

Interesting…
Texas #Republican Congressman Tony Gonzales clearly states he’s a “NO on the house rules package” but that’s one of the #concessions #KevinMcCarthy traded away for #Speaker votes. Does this mean he will not vote for #McCarthy? 🤞🏻

McCarthy loses, but there was a new flip on the 13th vote: Andy Harris votes for #KevinMcCarthy. But six of the seven insurrectionists are still holdouts — Andy Biggs, Lauren Boebert, Eli Crane, Matt Gaetz, Bob Good & Matt Rosendale.
Per @stevekornacki
Also, with absences, there’s new math, #McCarthy doesn’t necessarily have to get to 218.

This was the 1st time #McCarthy’s vote total exceeded #Jeffries’.
Jeffries 211 (1 absent Dem); McCarthy 213.
Which sucks for those of us who dreamt of a #SpeakerJeffries.
Even if McCarthy wins, this #118th #HouseOfRepresentatives is going to be a freakin mess due to the numerous concessions he made.

... a once-in-a-century impasse; a power struggle; a barometer of #dysfunction; a gift to the Democrats.
