Tiberius Posted October 11, 2023 Author Posted October 11, 2023 Rep. John S. Duarte (R-Calif.), a freshman who called this week for fellow California Republican Rep. Kevin McCarthy to be reinstated as speaker, said he would vote for Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.) on the House floor. “Scalise had the majority of the votes, so I don’t think there’s going to be a problem on the moderate end of the conference,” Duarte, a freshman who represents a swing district, told reporters. But another McCarthy ally, Rep. Carlos A. Gimenez (R-Fla.), said he planned to vote for McCarthy on the floor in protest of McCarthy’s ouster. “I just choose not to participate in what I consider to be an injustice,” Gimenez said.
Tommy Callahan Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 Sorry Tibs. There is no way Nation of Islam, Jefferies is getting the speaker position.
BillStime Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 Another productive day - getting the peoples work done - under MAGA leadership.

I don’t understand why Rep. Gimenez thinks the ouster of McCarthy was an injustice, when the terms were agreed to by McCarthy, himself, and his ouster was through a House vote… Sounds pretty democratic to me…👍 Edited October 11, 2023 by JaCrispy 1 2

The insane GQP base will probably eviscerate him now. 1
