    +1000

    And it appears that it would be completely legal and valid. Link below is intentionally from a leftist-establishment source:

    Just wrote my Congressman urging this selection. Because I have no more respect for the swamp than Trump has for past unspoken rules in DC.

    This schadenfreude is almost too delicious to handle!

    That would assume the House GOP caucus has a single testicle to share amongst them.

    They do not.

    Problem is, how do we get 218 votes for someone to replace him?

    It's kinda like sending a T-800 back to try to prevent WWII by wasting Hitler in Landsberg Prison without a plan to keep the rapacious Red Menace of Stalin in check afterward... the cure may well end up being worse than the disease.

    Actually, a better comparison is the dog that chased a car and finally caught it, then had no idea what to do next.

    RINOS may learn something from this………Meh, probably not.

    Personal attack my ass you KA Whiner, the FL congressman had very distinct and valid reasons for kicking him to the curb.

    More Republican circular firing squad stuff. We will be heading into our 8th straight losing election cycle next year barring serious recession.

    Make a good argument for keeping him that doesn't involve a compromise

    Came here to post that. I also think you don’t have to be a priest to be pope.
    The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.

    It's that simple.

    Interim House Speaker Patrick McHenry first order of business….

    “Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., was evicted from her private Capitol office by the new speaker pro-tempore.

    Fox News Digital confirmed that House Speaker pro-tempore Patrick McHenry, R-N.C., gave the order to Pelosi to vacate her Capitol hideaway by Wednesday.”

    Here I thought that the GOP had possession of POTUS, The House and The Senate from 2016-2018.
