House Democrats on Tuesday said they do not plan to save Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) when a vote on ousting him from the top spot hits the floor later in the day.
Emerging from a more than two-hour meeting in the Capitol, House Democrats said they will vote to oust McCarthy from the Speakership.
“We are following our leader and we are not saving Kevin McCarthy,” Rep. Pramila Jayapal, chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, told reporters.
Asked if a decision was made as a caucus not to support McCarthy, Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) responded, “yes.”
This news follows McCarthy’s statement that he won’t give Dems anything to save his Speakership.
Makes me wonder if Beavis would want it, since he’s pushing for his removal, but who knows. It was a collosal pain to even get McCarthy in the seat, so I’m thinking it’s going to be a long process
Gym Jordan’s Congressman Beavis, right?
Matt Gaetz is obviously Congressman Butthead.
With Jellyfish McCarthy about to lose his job, who else would want to be up there? He’d have to either kiss up to Beavis & Butthead as well as Marjorie Traitor Greene, or he’d have to make concessions with Democrats, either way, no matter who gets the seat, the next Speakership won’t last long…
Oh you’re right, I meant butthead. Lol
I’d watch Matt Gaetz get repeatedly embarrassed just like I watched it happen to Kevin McCarthy.
Gotta appreciate the little things.
