MIDLIFE MINI-19, Saturday, September 30, 2023 - The Monolith State’s Dog Whistle to the Cartels Blown; Keep ‘em Coming.
“When he walked into the Capitol on Saturday, Speaker Kevin McCarthy knew exactly what he'd do to stave off a shutdown: Call up a bill that abandoned the border policy and spending cuts he’d preached for weeks.”
***
“McCarthy's move marked an abrupt shift after spending most of the year trying to placate all corners of his party — including a dozen-plus hardliners who have made it next to impossible for him to maneuver anything onto the floor. After the vote, McCarthy all but taunted his critics to come after his gavel if they wanted to.
“And their first chance to do that will be Monday night. Multiple House conservatives confirmed in interviews they will begin seriously mulling whether they will try to seize McCarthy’s gavel in the coming days.”
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA)?
“McCarthy, meanwhile, was defiant: ‘If someone wants to make a motion against [the cartels], bring it.’”
