12. McCarthy is toast

and Democrats are going to let him hang. He did nothing to try to even build a back-channel bridge to keep the comms open to Democrats and given the 24/7 insults even from the non-Freedumb caucus members twho can and will name call just like their brethren, they haven't learned humility.

So let them stew in it for awhile. The political media gets paid to fill air time and column inches with "reports" or "rumors of reports" or "propaganda-generated reports".

The federal government is funded until September 30, Biden got huge bills done over the past 2 years, and the debt ceiling issue won't rear it's ugly head until at the soonest, some time this summer (where "extraordinary measures" could then be taken to extend that out a few months)... So financially, it's not critical to even talk about any capitulation.

Make the GOP do the capitulation. They created the mess and we are sick and tired of cleaning up their messes.

And welcome to DU!
