Like an infinite loop! Oooo... interesting...
I get the feeling we’re going to be seeing a lot of that from McCarthy in the days ahead. He bargained away much of the power he
might have had and he can barely turn around without some clown from his own party bumping into him and spilling his drink. >

If he lasts as Speaker past Memorial Day, I’ll be shocked. >

Okay someone get the head of lettuce. >

Kevin McCarthy, concerning refusing to allow Swalwell and Schiff on the Intel committee:

"They will not serve on the Intel Committee because integrity matters to me."

Ha, ha!  Good one, Kevin!  For a second or two there, you had me thinking you could take your job seriously. >

Republicans confuse integrity with fealty. >

Integrity? Nobody is even sure of Santos real name and he’s a congressman, with a good amount of Russian money behind him. It’s just embarrassing at this point. >

Like he had any “cool” to lose >

To achieve "cool", he would first have to thaw. >

Wait, shit thaws? >

Actually, the thawing of frozen manure and resulting agricultural runoff is a pretty big environmental problem that is being exacerbated by climate change. See here for a decent summary.
I'd say the comparison to McCarthy is on point. >

Wasn't expecting to learn about agricultural run off and it's impact being increased by warmer seasons.  
But here we are. 
And I'll say thanks. Learned something new and very applicable to the area if canada I live in. (Alberta has a lot of farmland and much if it is cattle) >

The Speaker of the house is angry he has to speak on matter pertaining to the house. Kevin, you’re worthless >

He's a fuckin' eunuch and he's pissed everyone knows... >

Santos is less a person and more a conglomeration of false identities. But he is one of the votes McCarthy needed, and still needs, to be "Speaker".
So the honest answer would be that, but I can't see McCarthy saying that. >

I don’t know. I’d say Santos is more of a conglomeration of republican ideals.  Gaslight, obstruct, project. >

The key thing I keep coming back to, every time I read a story about Santos, is "how is this person real?". There's no coherent self behind these stories.
I'd argue that Trump is that crystallized Republican ideal. He's the embodiment of everything they're looking for--rich, liar, white, dumb and racist, a gaslighter, obstructor, and projector par excellence. George Santos defies every attempt at explanation in a way Trump never did--he's not coherent enough as a person to be understood. When trying to describe him, adjectives fall flat or he runs away from them like he flees a wire fraud charge in Brazil. He simply lacks the solidity for me to say that he possesses any quality save being a liar, so I can't say he represents any kind of ideal, even the negative ones. He's too insubstantial for that. >

My god, George Santos is the living persona of “flooding the zone with shit”.
He’s a walking disinformation technique designed to confuse the public with lots of false and even contradictory information — and so much of it, until nobody knows what’s objectively true anymore.
As falsehood after falsehood are revealed, he doesn’t seem to be apologetic, backpedaling, or even worried about owning up to anything. Honestly, sometimes I wonder if he’s being employed to test the boundaries of US voter credulity. And to lower (even further) the minimum amount of integrity one should demonstrate as an elected official. Two for one! >

What a snowflake! >

It's breathtaking the amount of blatant lying to reporters McCarthy has been doing since being elected speaker. It's like he's been taking lessons from Trump and Santos. >

If he doesn't back santos, santos will call for a no confidence vote in him as speaker.
