As has been reported, it will only take a single congressperson, acting in what is known as a Jeffersonian Motion, to move to remove the Speaker if he or she goes back on their word or policy agenda.

A “Church” style committee will be convened to look into the weaponization of the FBI and other government organizations (presumably the CIA, the subject of the original Church Committee) against the American people.

Term limits will be put up for a vote.

Bills presented to Congress will be single subject, not omnibus with all the attendant earmarks, and there will be a 72-hour minimum period to read them.

The Texas Border Plan will be put before Congress. From The Hill: “The four-pronged plan aims to ‘Complete Physical Border Infrastructure,’ ‘Fix Border Enforcement Policies,’ ‘Enforce our Laws in the Interior’ and ‘Target Cartels & Criminal Organizations.'”

COVID mandates will be ended as will all funding for them, including so-called “emergency funding.”

Budget bills would stop the endless increases in the debt ceiling and hold the Senate accountable for the same.

Well McCarthy finally caved because he got Chuck Schumer's word on it, that the Senate would not ever pass any of the Bills calling for those things.

I thought Pelosi nuked that rule and one of the concessions the 'rebels' wanted was its restoration?

Each new Congress establishes their own rules.

None of their bills has any chance with the Senate lost and the incontinent fraudster still occupying the White House illegally.

Christine (probably a pseudonym) is one of the more reliable sources on the Woo channels. If this is true, it is high strangeness. The military would HAVE to be involved for protection and logistics if they were to conduct this case openly without being hit by a stray 9/11 missile disguised as an airplane. Who knows.

Yeah, but Schiff can still fuck dead kids at the Beverly Hills Hotel and get away with it.

Can someone sum up the good vs the bad please? I didn't know speak of the house was such a powerful role.

If he doesn't have the power Pelosi had, who has those powers now? What are those powers?

Schiff violated the Satanic principles of absolute lies to protest by telling a truth. Committing this sin agains Satan shows he is upset.

Right but at least they can do damage control by not letting any BS through for a couple of years. That is, IF the rules are voted on as expected on Monday. Can't all those other eGOP assholes reverse course for ol' Kev?

Basically the Speaker of the House determines what bills can even be voted on.

Two things I still doubt strenuosly until I see clear and confirmed information to the contrary: That the Brunson case will ever see the light of day at SCOTUS, and that Damar is alive and well and not a vegetable who is not the object of a Fed psyops disinformation campaign.

Everything changes once you know what McCarthy and Gaetz were actually saying
