You don’t give someone like MTG the choice between three options because she will select the one with the greatest potential to continue the craziness. Anything short of “denounce, apologize and never do this again” is weak leadership and doomed to fail.

“Desperate to save the GOP from an intensifying mess around Greene’s bogus theories, McCarthy reportedly told the panel that he would potentially try to convince House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD) to back off a House floor vote to remove her from the Budget Committee if he removes Greene from the Education and Labor Committee.”
Good Luck with that , Steny Hoyer smells blood in the water.
Steny isn’t the only one smelling blood,these folks eat their own at a fast clip.

“Keep up the good work,” Mccarthy likely said.
Or “I’m so, so, sorry. Let’s braid eachother’s hair and argue over who loves dondon more.”

Absolutely. Twitler is terrified by Garland’s competence and the fact that he will not be able to bribe or pressure him to let up. He just doesn’t know what to do with people who have ethical and moral frameworks which govern their lives. And since Twitler is always a victim and is convinced Merrick is out for blood in revenge (which he is not), he’s sweating bullets.

The funny thing is that Garland doing what Garland does may not be very far from Garland doing what they would do if they were in his place. The motivation would be entirely different, but the actions may not be dissimilar.

Sources told Politico that the panel reached consensus that a House vote on this issue would be catastrophic and should be avoided at all costs.
I fervently hope that vote occurs. It will be glorious!

Yeah but Party Over Country, as always with the GOP. Can’t reprimand her too hard without violating that principle. Although she’s definitely making it difficult for them (not that I have any sympathy).

Accidents happen occasionally.
Facebook putting out factual facts (what is our language coming to that we need a construction like ‘factual facts’?) is one such.

She sure is similar to him, and one similarity may be the assumption that if she has an advantage over you, like your reluctance to alienate all the Qanon morons, you will not act. Trump assumed this, being a coward. He never did learn that people with gumption understand that sometimes you have to mix it up, and it’s not the end of the world if you take a punch or two in the process. If McConnell deems it necessary that Greene be muzzled and to hell with the blowback, he’ll do it.

147 house members elected not to accept the electoral votes. This is going to get ugly for the GOP.

Though Democrats have the Senate majority, Graham is still the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman because the chamber hasn’t yet passed an organizing resolution for the 117th Congress.
That means the Senate panels are still operating under last year’s setup — in which Republicans had the majority.
That’s some serious bullshit. I thought elections had consequences.

Much like the “losers” and “suckers” in the military who sacrificed their lives.

“If you believe that the Jews control a space laser that starts fires,” you should not be on the House education committee, the GOP strategist said.
Rove, yet again, is a moron.
If you believe that bit about space lasers, you shouldn’t be within a 1000 miles of Congress.

Greene is becoming the voice and face of the GOP. Everyone knows that. There is no turning back. She will remain in her seat and on committees and might even take over Liz’s role. Given the decline of the party since Nixon, this is a natural route.
