I'm not laughing anymore...

...this is just so much of a humiliation, not just for Mccarthy and the GOP, but for Congress and America. I neither know nor care if some or all of this is GOP Kabuki Theater. Having one GOP member physically threaten another inclines me to think they aren't engaged in a charade... This may be forgotten in a month. But it's still one more milestone on the road to Hell... And half the country loves all this. God help us...
