Buchanan, with sixteen years in the House of Representatives and one of the wealthiest members of congress, seems like a particularly bad choice to make an enemy.

1. not even a hint of decorum or self control from these maniacs

everything is just one big FU with them

2. Aww poor fella.

[Thomas Hurt]

3. Buchanan is not very bright if he didn't see this coming.

Never heard of this guy. Never seen him on the news. This fool sat on his hands for the last six years. Didn't take a stand against the Trump cult, so tough shit dude.

And The GOP will F**K up the United States with their inability to govern.

6. I seem to remember something about fighting like "a big bag of rats."

“You f**ked me. I know it was you, you whipped against me,” Buchanan reportedly told the California Republican.

Sources close to Buchanan would not confirm the phrasing but acknowledged words were shared between the men.

“Vern simply expressed his disappointment to Speaker McCarthy,” said Max Goodman, Buchanan’s political adviser.

The Puck report suggested the interaction between Buchanan and McCarthy became so heated security had to step in between the men, something McCarthy’s office denied.

It seems to me that his fellow House Republicans have zero respect for Speaker McCarthy. I remember somebody
shouted "get on your knees" @ Kevin when he was going to speak (beg) Matt Gaetz about getting his support.

9. Big bag of rats

all equally awful. per Stephanie Miller, and she's right.

[Warpy]

7. McCarthy is going to preside over a full blown Klown Kongress

and there is nothing sane people can do about it, except hope there are a few investigations that will pick off their majority.

Members of his own party should get used to being reamed, he's willing to fuck them all over to keep power.

We all warned them. They're all fools, so they didn't listen. They never do.

My suggestion is that if you absolutely must watch the "news," you lay in a very large supply of popcorn, you'll need it. A large bottle of Valium would also be a good idea. It would be a better idea to feed it to Republicans, but they don't listen about that, either.

McCarthy is pissing off the regular/sane members of the GOP

Rep. Vern Buchanan was reportedly not happy with McCarthy's decision to deny him the chairmanship of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee. I'm inclined to give this story a lot of credence, as the gavel instead went to U.S. Rep. Jason Smith, a Missouri Republican fifth in line in terms of seniority. That suggests some backroom deal was made, probably to help McCarthy in his quest for Speaker. If McCarthy screws over enough Republicans he won't be Speaker for long.

A new report in Puck documents an angry exchange between the Longboat Key Republican after the GOP Steering Committee denied him the chairmanship of the House Ways and Means Committee. The gavel instead went to U.S. Rep. Jason Smith, a Missouri Republican fifth in line in terms of seniority.

“You f**ked me. I know it was you, you whipped against me,” Buchanan reportedly told the California Republican.

17. Didn't McCarthy make a deal where any member of his party could try to expel him as speaker?

The way he's pissing people off, I bet he won't make it five months before somebody tries

18. Republicans should F each other as much as they can

and leave the rest of us alone

19. You dumb shit. What did you expect?

21. So F**k Him Right Back! nt

22. What did people like Buchanan think McCarthy was giving to the insurrectionist cabal to get elected?

They knew he was giving away their committee assignments and leadership roles to nihilists who want to destroy government. They have only themselves to blame because they still voted for him instead of putting forth a more viable candidate for speaker.
