New Speaker already workin’
Currently, 433 sworn members.
221 Republicans.
212 Democrats.
289 is the magic 2/3rd’s number needed to expel.
Assuming all 212 Democrats vote yes on expulsion.
That means 77 Republicans need to vote yes.
Which is actually quite plausible.
I think expulsion has a decent chance of success.
I believe it the right thing to do. Wonder when the last time was.
Last expulsion was in 2002, when Jim Trafficant was expelled by a vote of 420 to 1.
Interestingly, there has only been one other expulsion since the Civil War, that being Michael Myers in 1980 due to the ABSCAM scandal.
Now the Senate needs to get their act together and throw out Menendez.
I certainly hope so. Santos is a ■■■■■■■ joke.
And again
That had nothing to do with the new Speaker. He opposed it.
Speaker runs the House!
And did they expel him ?
They’re working on it.

Sure, now that it’s too embarrassing to do anything else.
And now, on to Menendez.
Yeah… that guy needs to go.
“Expelling” the corrupt Biden would be the right thing as well.
Mind your back
Who needs an investigation
Guilty!

Johnson was willing to overlook.
We need some Biden Derangement Syndrome memes.
Update.
