Apparently Boebert and Greene got into a near screaming match in a bathroom off the House floor over the McCarthy Speakership election that almost ended in fisticuffs.

www.businessinsider.com

MTG confronted Boebert in the bathroom, accusing her of taking millions from McCarthy but refusing to vote for him: report

Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert were "nearly in a screaming match" in a Capitol bathroom during House speaker votes, per The Daily Beast.

“Politico reported that somebody had to step in to de-escalate the argument because it looked like they were about to get physical.”

Whoever stepped in to de-escalate made a mistske and gave up some old school “Girls Gone Wild” reality show type footage to go viral. It's easy for me to imagine Marge grabbing Boebert by the hair and dunking her head in a toilet. Only the best people!

McCarthy is himself far right, fascist right, in fact. Don't lose sight of how radical "mainstream" Republicans are just because of the clown show. Remember: On January 6, 2021, one hundred thirty-nine Republican House Members voted to overthrow our Republic. Kevin McCarthy is one of the seditionists.

Lol. Debbie Dingell was in the washroom for the MTG/Boebort incident. When the press asked her about it, “what happens in the ladies room stays in the lady room”

McCarthy denies Schiff and Swalwell seats on the House Intelligence Committee, because ‘Integrity matters more.’ lol wtf!


“I cannot put partisan loyalty ahead of national security, and I cannot simply recognize years of service as the sole criteria for membership on this essential committee. Integrity matters more,” - Kevin McCarthy

I guess he’s going to put Santos in there? After all, he was the CIA director for a number of years, from what we have been told!

Man, I wish the voters were paying attention.

Now do one for fascism. Or, you know, do something to actually help working-class Americans instead of jerking each other off on taxpayer time.
