At this writing, Republican Establishment darling Kevin McCarthy has failed an 11th vote for Speakership. And to hear the reaction from both sides of the D.C. Swamp, one might think America has never faced a greater crisis in its entire history. Despite the fact that only in the past few weeks, a budget bill with the potential to collapse our economy was passed, and the Arizona governorship was stolen in an abominable, thoroughly corrupt joke of an “election,” the only thing major “Republican” players are wailing about is preserving McConnell as Senate Minority “leader,” garnering the speakership for his dutiful wingman McCarthy, and keeping Ronna McDaniel as RNC chair.
Even many major Conservative voices are crying “Uncle!” over on Capitol Hill, claiming that Conservatives don’t have any chance of upending the status quo, and should simply surrender to the detestable inevitability of “business as usual.” Had such insipid thinking predominated in Colonial America, the Patriots would immediately have gone crawling back to King George after they were routed on Lexington Common on the morning of April 19, 1775, thwarting any possibility of the victory, later that day at Concord, and eventually Yorktown. So do we wonder why the country currently is such a mess, and is so easily being dragged in a direction that is diametrically opposed to the desires and concerns of those people on “Main Street” who plant the crops, dig the coal, raise the buildings, and die in the wars to preserve and protect our way of life?
Not surprisingly, the Democrats are getting in on the act, decrying those twenty brave Republicans who refuse to support McCarthy, insisting that he’s the best man to lead the GOP! We haven’t seen such monolithic support for any individual, or any issue since America fell at the feet of Zelensky when the Russians invaded Ukraine. Everyone from Mark Levin to AOC is throwing it all in for McCarthy, while castigating the Twenty, and in particular their de facto leader Congressman Matt Gaetz, for refusing to play along.
In truth, the drama up on Capitol Hill is about something much bigger than who gets the gavel in Congress, or even whether Republicans can advance a coherent agenda going forth. The only manner in which the leftists/globalists, who have ravaged our economy, our freedoms, the rule of law, and the Constitution itself can hope to prevail is if they are able to fracture and silence the good people of Real America, and convince us that any resistance to their dominion over us is futile. And this threat comes from the inner circles of both political parties. So any “Republican” Speaker must be one of them.
Like his Senate cohort Mitch McConnell, Kevin McCarthy has proven to be a reliable devotee of this abhorrent status quo. He comes from a sordid lineage of capitulation and appeasement, going back to Dennis Hastert, followed by John Boehner and Paul Ryan. He has already asserted the pablum of RINO submission to the established order, assuring leftist Democrats that there will be no attempt at impeachment, and that his goal will be to “heal” the Nation, which means sweeping all of the rampant and treasonous leftist corruption under the rug.
Having taken such a position, can people expect real justice to come from any House hearings on Hunter and the whole Ukraine money laundering scheme? Rather than seizing the opportunity to fumigate the thoroughly infested Swamp, any action in regards to the despicable and profuse criminality of the Biden Cabal would result in nothing more than very “heated” fund raising letters.
Meanwhile, why is nobody in any major position suggesting that McCarthy “put principle over party” by withdrawing his name from consideration? If he were sincere, he could have ended all of the rancor, the moment it became obvious that he is widely distrusted. He’d simply concede that he had done much in the past to destroy peoples’ confidence, and step aside. That would instantly fix everything, were solving the problem their actual intention.
Clearly, the D.C. “Establishment” is not only fully invested in installing a compliant “Republican,” to ultimately do their bidding; it is also terrified of the prospect of “We the People” actually finding out we can decisively flex the muscle that we hold on this issue. At that point we may realize we can and should be flexing it elsewhere as well.
Eighty four percent of Republicans, an overwhelming majority, believe the Party needs new leadership. And their reasons for this are abundant. When leftists assume majority status in the Congress, their base gets results. But when Republicans are in the majority, even holding the White House, the Conservative base only gets excuses. Meanwhile, Senators and Representatives accumulate wealth that vastly eclipses their “paltry” salaries, starting at $174,000 per year. Given this den of guaranteed indulgence, regardless of any actual accomplishments, why should they risk backlash from a hostile press, by attempting to change the Nation’s downward spiraling course? They can merely coast along, and make pretense of being the “opposition party” in their abundance of fund-raising letters.
Sadly, despite the fraud and chicanery, too many Conservatives are absorbing and embracing the “Establishment” narrative on the speaker situation. And too few are supporting those twenty brave souls who stand courageously in the gap. This sends a contradictory message to Washington. Americans claim they want people to put principle over party. Well this is what it looks like! Yet when someone finally takes a stand, Americans are whipped into a frenzy, to condemn it. Going forward, those Americans, from the minions who believe CNN, to the big Conservative voices who so quickly started waving the white flag, have no room to complain.
This situation represents a decisive moment for our Nation. Americans must take note of who stands with McCarthy, and who stands with Matt Gaetz, the other nineteen principled Conservatives, and “We the People.” Per Mein Kampf and Alinsky, the goal is to get the Freedom Caucus to cave, and then mercilessly bludgeon them for ever having stood against the “Establishment”/Swamp in the first place. Doing so would complete the severing of the Republican Party from any accountability to the American people. Those are the stakes!

What Would You Do If Pharmacies Couldn’t Provide You With Crucial Medications or Antibiotics?
The medication supply chain from China and India is more fragile than ever since Covid. The US is not equipped to handle our pharmaceutical needs. We’ve already seen shortages with antibiotics and other medications in recent months and pharmaceutical challenges are becoming more frequent today.
Our partners at Jase Medical offer a simple solution for Americans to be prepared in case things go south. Their “Jase Case” gives Americans emergency antibiotics they can store away while their “Jase Daily” offers a wide array of prescription drugs to treat the ailments most common to Americans.
They do this through a process that embraces medical freedom. Their secure online form allows board-certified physicians to prescribe the needed drugs. They are then delivered directly to the customer from their pharmacy network. The physicians are available to answer treatment related questions.
The core issue facing America is our flat out rejection of Christ and our deep ignorance of the Principles of Liberty and Natural Law. Even those of us who know Christ are flimsy and spineless compared to our 1776 Forefathers. Moreover—an overwhelming majority of us know nothing of men like Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, Voltaire, Kant, Russeau, Spooner, and others. We scream like whining 5 year old’s about our “rights”, but we know absolutely nothing about the duties, obligations, and demands of Liberty upon our conduct and behavior—our thinking, words, and actions. Consequently, the lies of tyranny and tyrants has penetrated and replaced Christ and Liberty in us. So much so that the very moral fabric of our society is collapsing before our eyes. Therefore—you and others screeching and complaining about the “DC Swamp” is nothing more than emotional hyperbole. It’s not an answer or a solution. It is a distraction, addiction, and waste of time. What is the solution? Simple: The Church of Christ needs to rise up and pray, preach, and teach Christ in the streets, highways, and byways. Moreover—those same people need to read, understand, embrace and love Liberty like it is 1776 all over again. That means reading, knowing, understanding, embracing, and loving what our Founders knew—Hobbes, Locke, Voltaire, Kant, Russeau, Spooner, et al. Therein lays your and our solution. The rest of this crap is just emotional anger. It’s like being told you have cancer, but you are offered no cure. It’s time for us to wake up.
PS—I am going to brutally blunt with you on an aside. I don’t give a flying rat’s tail side about Democrats vs Republicans, Conservatives vs Liberals, Progressives, and so on. Eyewash. Distraction. As you pointed out—they just passed a spending bill that is financially crushing. All parties participated. The entire thing is corrupt from stem to stern. Lysander Spooner was correct about DC and about men in power in a “Republic”. He saw where they were headed. One hundred and forty years after his death, his prescient words are coming true. He saw the chink in the armor that would disallow US citizens and society to meet Ben Franklin’s challenge (i.e., “A Republic ma’am—if you can keep it!”). Quite frankly—we did not, we have not, we do not. We have become the fools. The fact that we keep voting for this crap ought to tell you why the crap persists. Politicians are not the issue. We the People are the disease.
Christ, the Cross, the Principles of Liberty and Natural Law are the vaccine and cure against the disease. They are the spiritual, intellectual, and physical inoculation against the cancer of tyrannies and tyrants. Our own mental immune system is designed to detect, identify, and destroy the disease of tyranny and tyrants. Those inward T-cells are made up from knowing Christ and knowing and loving the Liberty He has endowed within us. Remove Christ and Liberty fails—especially if it is not taught. My own great grandfather came from Germany in the late 1800’s. He knew Christ but failed to learn Liberty. Consequently, Christ was diluted through my grandfather to where my own father hardly darkened the door to any church at all of his own accord. It became a remote family story and tradition. By the time it got to me—I was an atheist at 18. Even when I became a Christian (God chasing me down) at 20, I did not know Liberty nor its demands and duties. It took my own son finding that and then sharing with me 35 years later. I am now 60. The last five years of learning Liberty has been transformational in ways I cannot describe. When I look at American society in 2023—I am furious and disgusted with what we have become. Republicans make me want to puke. Democrats are a worse evil. Conservatives are a joke. Liberals and Progressives, Marxists, socialists, and others are a cancer and a disease. Even Libertarians live at the edge of sanity without going fully in because they truly do not “get” Liberty plus Christ. I will stop writing now. I have written enough. Just know—when I read articles like this, the bile rises in my throat because you and others are blind and ignorant of the root cause. You are chasing symptoms of the deeper disease thinking that you’re doing us all a favor with your political diatribes. No thank you. Have a good day!
The RINOs are calling the freedom caucus republicans – the closest thing we have to constitutional conservatives – “terrorists”.
They’re not terrorists, of course,. But they are terrifying to the leftist hegemony.
Tell the swamp dwellers to EFF THEMSELVES.
ARGO
People need to call their reps over and over till they get the message. I am so proud of those not voting for the snake McCarthy, hope they hang in there. Where are the so called conservatives? guess they were in name only, when push comes to shove, they showed their true colors. Why isn’t Jim Jordan voting against the snake? All are on the take and will win in the end.
What too many of us fail to see that how far we’ve slid from a government OF the People, BY the People and FOR the People…
This is the last stand for the Republican Party which is supposed to present opposition to the Democratic Party. I salute these men and women for their conviction and courage. I know the pressure they are under most be enormous and I’m equally convinced should they succeed in thwarting McCarthy there is already a plan in place that will undermine their success. Steve Scalise McCarthy’s whip is mentioned. He is of the same cloth. I’m so sick of the McConnell logic of let’s just move along, that’s not who we are tripe when they finally achieve power. He doesn’t believe that bull but he convinces the weak. Just move on and don’t impeach a President after what he has done? His family is a criminal outfit, he abandoned Afghanistan, he imposed censorship on all Americans, the border is non existent, he lied about Hunter, he lies about everything and worse yet has the entire free press covering those lies. Ukraine is a money laundering pit 1000 times what planned parenthood was for this Party, tax payer money sent back to the Party in donations. It’s so corrupt. Anyone who stands behind McCarthy or his hand picked replacement is a shill. Face it, the Republican Party should have reformed as a 3rd Party after 2020. It was the perfect chance with a leader that could have pulled half the Party with him. The midterms were a planned disaster to make sure Conservatives have zero voice. Elections became a joke, a joke after 2020, open seasons, no ID, no proof of authenticity, coerced ballot harvesting and judges that sweep it away. The current regime ignores laws and now has openly waged war on the Document that codified the Social Compact that is this Nation, the Constitution setting their cites on outright repeal of the Bill of Rights. Is this so inconsequential that Americans blithely go about their day to day lives unaware or unperturbed? They are subjected to the media vilifying those who standup and ignorantly agree without taking time to find out what it’s all about? Look at the names of those you thought were Conservatives and represented you that now line up behind McCarthy. I excuse Trump because he is a good man who make poor picks. The rest know what they are doing and who they are doing it to.
The WEF has control over our government… Teaparty time is over with… It’s the “Concord Bridge” moment that seems to be getting close… I don’t know how much more citizens can take…
I am happy I did not vote in the midterms GOP reaped what it had sown. I did not vote for Trump in 20 because the US was still Occupying Syria, I did vote for him in 16. Simply I will vote a straight Dem ticket if Trump is not the GOP candidate.
hey night dipper, you are part fo the problem if you think your action mentioned above is the solution! The whole swamp is a uniparty. voting for the other party does nothing and they don’t care!
The solution is to VOTE IN THE PRIMARIES AND REMOVE THE PERSON CURRENTLY IN CONGRESS FOR THE GOP. FIGHT LIKE HELL FOR THE NON_ESTABLISHMENT GOP MEMBER! Raise money for them, knock on doors get their name recognized locally to others to vote for them in the primaries… not for the establishment chosen person. part of the fight of the 20 now is to end the practice of funding the chosen establishment candidates over patriot/other candidates in the primaries. and in the general elections give money and support to ALL GOP candidates wether you think they are good candidates or not! AND OF COURSE step 2 is DON’T LET THEM CHEAT!
I hope the stalemate lasts for 2 more years, congress can’t pass or spend anything until a speaker is elected.
For now we’re safe, enjoy it while it lasts.
