Donald Trump is as crazy as Joe Biden, calls Chip Roy (TX-21) a RINO, wants him primaried

 

Wanting-it-both-ways DeSantis strikes again

 

Ron DeSantis: "I Was One Of the Guys That Opposed McCarthy Before It Was Cool" :

At the same time, though, I look at guys like Chip Roy, Tom Massie, Jim Jordan, and they’re basically saying there’s not a plan to go forward with whatever Matt Gaetz is doing.

Chip Roy calls latest House immigration bill a show, political theatre, which is ignoring the invasion

Everything government does is theatre, usually bad theatre, and when it's occasionally mediocre theatre because it's so rarely even that good the politicians abandon all sense of proportion and fall all over themselves telling us how wonderful what they did was.

Trump won't actually do his job. Congress won't actually do its job.

Sounds like a trend.

LOL, lowly Republican House member stops $19.1 billion disaster relief spending spree Trump caved on

Notice: It's Not Justin Amash.

 

House Republican holds up $19 billion disaster relief bill expected to pass unanimously:

The bill was expected to pass the House under a unanimous consent process, to which any member may object. ... “Secondly, it’s a bill that includes nothing to address the clear national emergency and humanitarian crisis we face at our southern border,” [Chip] Roy [TX:21] said. ... President Donald Trump has declared the situation on the southern border a national emergency and had previously sought to include border-related funding in the bill. He later dropped the demand. ... Roy, in a statement later Friday, wrote that  “I stayed in D.C. to object because this kind of swampy practice is what Texans elected me to stand against.

 

There were just 7 votes in the House against making the deep state permanent

The 7 Republicans who voted against back pay for furloughed workers:

But seven lawmakers — all House Republicans — opposed the measure. Those "no" votes came from Reps. Justin Amash (Mich.), Andy Biggs (Ariz.), Paul Gosar (Ariz.), Glen Grothman (Wis.), Thomas Massie (Ky.), Chip Roy (Texas) and Ted Yoho (Fla.). ... Gosar issued a statement after the vote saying the bill removes an incentive to resolve the shutdown swiftly. "This ill-conceived legislation takes away a useful tool in holding government accountable," he said. "Shutdowns have historically served to push both parties to compromise and resolution.  This bill eliminates the impact and urgency a shutdown creates and rewards bureaucrats and swamp dwellers." Massie made similar remarks in a statement saying the bill "guarantees retroactive pay for every possible future shutdown, which will only make it easier for politicians to cause future shutdowns." "This is irresponsible and I want to prevent future shutdowns from happening," he said.
