House Minority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., will reportedly campaign against the $1.7 trillion omnibus spending bill that Senate Republicans negotiated with Democrats.
McCarthy’s break with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell will reportedly come at a GOP lunch meeting Wednesday, just a day after Senate leadership agreed to the omnibus, according to Punchbowl News. Congress is expected to give a final vote on the package later on Wednesday.
House Republicans like Rep. Dan Bishop, R-N.C., have taken issue with specific aspects of the bill aside from its huge price tag. Bishop pointed to what he called a “sinister” portion of the bill that allots nearly $600 million to encourage “family planning” in places where human population growth threatens animal biodiversity.
Like I say, I think Trumps got some dirt on him and feels he can control him. This would also explain why MTG is suddenly backing him. Her and Trump talk. A lot.
Did I just see that Hell might have frozen over, no probably not. McCarthy will find a way to come out for this bloated monstrosity of a bill some way or another in order to save face with all the rest of the democraps and RINO’s who voted for it. I don’t trust hardly any politicians anymore because the always pull the football away just as we’re ready to kick it.
I’ll believe it if it happens
It is all a show.
mccarthy is a lapdog.
they decided he will oppose it to make him look good for the leader position
Check’s in the mail …
Meh.
He knows it’s a meaningless gesture.
Just more Kabuki for the masses.
Bill passes anyway, McCarthy gets a campaign ad, and the knife is twisted into the Republic as RINOs say “we’ll get ’em next time” yet a fucking gain.
Typical republican when it doesn’t matter you act like a conservative and do what the entire party should do ALL THE TIME.
oh! and i won’t cum in yer mouth.
Have they had the vote on the Speaker yet?
Either that or he stuck his finger in the air and found the wind was not blowing McConnell’s way.
Another $45 billion for Ukraine and Electoral Count Act.
There isn’t anything in there that’s good for America, just the politicians.
Using the FAKE Jan. 6 as a reason to pass more FAKE legislation.
There won’t be any way to vote America out of the Swamp.
Poor Persons Financial Advice
Never sign a contract blind.
Period.
Ask a poor person.
Absolutely No consequences for him. It’s just a show
Although McCarthy DOES have a very striking face…kinda wonder how many times he’s been struck there compared to how many grown, adult MEN in Congress WILL strike there in the future. Probably not a lot.
It’s a tough job trying to stay in front of the parade but…politician.
EVERYBODY’s got dirt on McCarthy. Countdown to his selling us out in ten, nine, eight, seven…
McCarthy is an expert speaking against a Bill when he knows the democrats and RINOs control the vote anyway. His move doesn’t have anything to do with his principles, as mentioned, it is theatrical.
That includes the closet democrat McCONnell and the usual RINOs in the senate who will pass the Bill.!
