OPINION: Leadership is still a problem for the GOP
Submitted by George McClellan
This growing schism in the ranks of the GOP caused by the multiple vote attempts to elect the “Self-Chosen One” Kevin McCarthy to the role of House Speaker, represents the beginning of the absolute need to pull the GOP back from the corruption that has infected it by its cooperation with the Democrat-Socialist Party and ostensibly, the New World Order. It’s a beginning and we have to start somewhere! How about with the GOP leadership?
For the moment, the leadership of the House of Representatives has seemingly been resolved. Kevin McCarthy stuck out the humiliation to the bitter end. I am waiting breathlessly to learn all the concessions McCarthy agreed to with the Freedom Caucus members to get their votes. I hope my congressman, Andrew Clyde (Ga 9) will keep us informed. It must have been brutal and despite the class of RiNO syncopates whose careers depend on maintaining the status quo predicting calamity in the GOP if we fell off the wagon, shouldn’t concern themselves because the GOP has been a calamity for a long time. They’re weak because they are weak!
What could possibly have been the motivating factors of the twenty or so Freedom Caucus holdouts but that they are honest Americans living up to their pledges to their constituents to start the dismantling the GOP’s role in the uni-party because real Americans do not want to be part of the New World Order, a Socialist America or a Biden totalitarian police state. Let the carnage begin. It has!
It has not gone unnoticed that a major antagonist, GOP Rep. Marjory Taylor Green (Ga 14), didn’t stand with the Freedom Caucus against McCarthy even as she was an integral part of it. In fact, MTG stood with McCarthy from the beginning. She is a very astute woman and looks beyond the present. Pelosi neutralized her in the House by keeping her off all committees. Consequently, she had the freedom to roam the halls of Congress making partnerships with her fellow Congresspersons and hashing out a set of particulars needed if the GOP won the 2022 House. Shockingly, they did so by only the thinnest of margins. The failure that the expected Red Tide turned into a ripple that didn’t wash across America as expected, was partly due to McCarthy and his RiNO advisers who refused to fund campaigns of candidates endorse by Trump or who declined to agree to GOPs demands on how they should vote with the party. That’s heresy and if left unattended, exposes Party disloyalty to the Constitution.
MTG, by supporting the inevitable, McCarthy’s Speakership, ensured that she would not be sidelined again this time by the GOP. She will now doubtless have some committee authority to start the restoration of Americas values. I’ve met MTG twice, at Mikes Ellijay Restaurant, when she first ran. She outlined exactly what she saw was the GOPs problem, weakness in leadership, and spelled out what she was going to do and did it! MTG very much knows what she’s doing. Notice that during the Speakers election controversy she didn’t rise above the horizon line. She already had her reward promised to her. I’m still suspicious of McCarthy and how he will operate as “Speaker” but if he fools around and doesn’t keep his pledges, hopefully etched in stone, he’ll join Paul Ryan and John Boehner in the House history books as a conservative loser while America slips into anarchy. MTG will help him get there!
The aging and feckless Mitch McConnell whose prosperity comes mostly from his wife’s connection to a Communist Chinese Shipping Company, is a crypto anti-Trumper except when it affect him directly. Will he work with a ‘strings attached’ McCarthy to pull America from the brink of socialism or will he stand in the way? As the new 118th Congress has now been sworn in, it remains to be seen what happens next. I’m all anticipation. For the next two years, we’ll not see any great movement of restoration of the American Republic. Biden still has a veto pen, Schumer still runs the Senate and a host of Progressive Judges have been appointed to protect the socialist party line, so nothing’s going to get done except the assembling of evidence of Democratic crimes by GOP’s House committees. I suspect it is for this reason Jim Jordan didn’t want the Speakers job. He’s willing to wait two more years.
We all know what needs to be done. First, the criminal family that is the US president already exposed, needs to be destroyed. Why should a two bit incompetent, life long professional politician enjoy the fruits of his criminality unscathed just because he ascended to the top dog position? His Progressive political policies, enforced by a corrupt FBI and DoJ, needs to be reversed especially the invasion across our southern border. All those illegals that made it through must be rounded up and returned to Mexico, let them deal with it. We must restore our energy independence, cease the totalitarian governments attacks on religious institutions, stop the censorship of our 1st amendment rights, stamp out the teachers unions and the perversion they are foisting upon our little children, stop financially supporting illegals over our veterans and stop government spending on countries who don’t or won’t stand with the USA. We’ve spent far enough already.
As a final word on spending and I’ve said it before, prepare for war with Mexico. It’s coming! Permitting foreigners to participate in Americas destruction by facilitating the invasions of illegals and dangerous drugs, is the most treasonous of all US foreign policies. Only Joe would permit this to happen. We’re in a world of hurt here and Republicans pussy-footing around with Democrats, won’t stop the bleeding. We need a warrior class in the GOP and the Freedom Caucus is forming up as the nucleus. Let’s help ‘em!
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the only way. Now, go get ‘em! (08Jan23)
