The claim that Dems should've saved McCarthy's Speakership for the good of the country presumes that insulating the GOP from the downsides of MAGA craziness helps America. But it's the opposite.
The GOP needs to face the monster they unleased and still promote, or they won't stop
.@GregTSargent
Dems are not obliged to bail out Republicans when the MAGA monster they created comes for them. The idea is absurd. It presumes Republicans can't be asked to take responsibility for the messes they've made with their own malignant bad acting. Free link: wapo.st/3PLxSPY

[1] In response to reports we just received on the closure of the Huwarah road to Palestinians (as well as their businesses in the village), we say loud and clear: Closing off roads to the Palestinian residents while letting Israeli settlers pass freely - is called apartheid.

man the democrats really blundered not sticking with a moderate republican who wanted only to impeach Biden for no reason instead of having him executed before a crowd of ravenous cannibals

Probably should've thought about your institutional concerns when you were whipping votes to deny the rightful winner of the presidency the White House after your office had been stormed by people with confederate flags.

> @SpeakerMcCarthy emerged from House GOP conference meeting and talked to the press. Here's what KM said: "I truly believe, though, the institution of the House, at the end of the day, if you throw a speaker out that has 99% of their conference, that kept government and paid the troops, I think we're in a really bad place for how we're going to run Congress."

If Republicans really want a more moderate choice, it will take only five of them to vote for Hakeem Jeffries.
What's that you say, it's insane to expect people to vote for the other party to be speaker?
Right.
Dan McLaughlin@baseballcrank
Remember, Democrats may say they want more responsible Republican leadership, but they will side against that every chance they get - and then complain if anyone tries to hold them responsible for their own choices.

The consensus GOP position appears to be that Democrats are communist satanist pedophile dictators who want to destroy America, and also it is their solemn responsibility to protect us from the rabid lunatics in our own party, in exchange for nothing.
Ari Fleischer@AriFleischer
Unbelievable. The Democrats, with the help of Matt Gaetz and a handful of GOP Members, just ousted the Republican Speaker of the House. What a mess. This is so foolish. Why would anyone want to be Speaker of the House.

Question of the day is how many Democrats can see past their hatred of McCarthy to recognize how bad a precedent this would be - and how things get no better for them under the next person.

“Israel isn’t ethnically cleansing children, only teenagers!”
HonestReporting@HonestReporting
The @nytimes emotively captions this photo: "A diary left behind by a child in an abandoned Palestinian village." We asked a native Arabic speaker to take a look. The writing is actually that of a teenager in love, not a child. This is a deliberate misuse of a photo caption in order to create a false association with alleged Israeli mistreatment of Palestinian children. nytimes.com/2023/10/03/wor…

if "American politics" were broken, we'd have seen things like this happen when Democrats controlled the House
but we didn't
what's broken, very specifically, is the Republican Party
