    Does McCarthy have the stones to expel this pos from the house? Short answer no. If Santos were a D, McCarthy would have already crucified him.

    McCarthy can’t even lose 1 R vote and stay on as speaker. Santos was one of those votes. I think that answers the question.

    Trump is a low priority in my news cycle.

    It’s all a cover to throw the scent off of his secret undercover FBI work.

    Wire fraud, money laundering, stealing public money, making false statements to the House of Representatives ...

    Pretty big deal. Leads most news sites, of course.
    Fox: Republicans say Hunter Biden is crooked ...

    Ok now this is priceless... poster states " Looks like we know which party is trump obsessed. Let it go." But nowhere in this thread is a mention of Trump.... except his references. TDS?

    Yes, the correct order goes:

    1. A trans person exists
    2. The presumptive nominee for President from one of the two major parties is found by a jury to have committed sexual abuse.
    3. A sitting congressman is indicted.

    the members of the ethics committee may expel him with or without McCarthy blessing. they are tired of trying to apologize for him

    McCarthy needs his vote. Since he already sold his integrity, easy decision

    What a shameful lack of integrity. He never should have been sat in the first place. What next? Is he going to be allowed to vote from jail?

    He pushed the infamous Trump "witch hunt" button. Had to laugh loudly at that one.

    Interesting. Could be in disguise - look for an overly-made up dumpy woman. Seriously, Hope he is ok.
