    We want McCarthy to be prosecuted for his "new Mccarthyism." We are tired of the violent threats and McCarthy's attempt at overthrowing the government. We don't need a minime dictator in a position of power where he can provoke more violence while he lines his pockets.

    Sure makes one wonder why folks don't question the reality that Republicans seem to be against every STRONG WOMAN who comes along? And if not, where are their STRONG WOMEN in leadership positions?🙄😑😎

    He is speaking the truth. It would be hard for him not to hit her. Take the man at his word. This idle chat our "newsmen" are engaging in here is repugnant. They should be ashamed of themselves. But they are not. And so the daytime style talkshow banter keeps on rolling. These outlet anchors are a joke. Goodnight and goodluck ladies – carry on with your sewing circle. We need a Walter Kronkite. Instead we get schoolboys in charge of our network news rooms

    Ex Dixicrats, Confederate flag waivers, holocaust deniers, KKK, and other racist, homophobic, xenophobic groups. Proud boys, oath keepers, white nationals, white supremacists……
    Not all Republicans are all the above, of course not. However, all the above ARE REPUBLICANS AND TRUMP SUPPORTERS.
    I challenged several people on that, and no body has even tried to really debunk that.
    They all came back with "shooting the messenger" type answers.
    You want to shoot the messenger?
    Then, please, engage in intelligent debate, rather than taking cheap shots at me personally. Because if you do, you only exposing your cowardice, and lack of intellect.

    Kevin, a serious simple question:
    Are you tempted to hit your wife, when you have a disagreement with her? Since I will never get an answer from Kevin, I will direct this question to those who agree with Kevin.
    Do you hit, or are you tempted to hit your wife, or significant other, when he or she disagrees with you?

    At the end of the day government is still a work place. And it anyone else said something like this about a coworker you would have a talk with HR. Maybe on probation, maybe fired.
    This is just unacceptable work place behavior.

    These Republicans have lost all respect for professional character towards the Democrats, our fellow party and citizens of the United States. They are so unruly, really, people. we HAVE to vote these loonies out of office. We saw what happened when Trump had four years with us, don't let it happen again in Red.

    If you need to explain that your humorless threat is a joke.You’re lying. He’s a Federal employee threatening a colleague ! Don’t members of Congress have to follow the same laws as other Federal employees ? I’d like to smash Kevin McCarthy’s face in. Lol. Get it ? I’m just joking. Aren’t I hilarious ?

    Mr. McCarthy, you don’t joke about hitting someone with a gavel when it’s clearly YOU, who dislikes Nancy Pelosi. That’s a threat. I’ll say it again, you threatened Nancy Pelosi.

    Nancy Pelosi on Feb. 4th lead and provoked an insurrection in thd House of Congress during a national broadcast.  The internet in the days following exploded with hatred, anger, and division. ( Twitter and FB declined Pelosi's request to take the video down. – CNBC FEB. 7, 2020) Insurrection: a violent uprising against an authority or government. Summer of 2020 increase in violence was driven by politicians not just one person. Pelosi is still in office and the violence continues to grow. She is guilty of leading an insurrection against a standing US President regardless whether the citizens approve or disapprove of the standing President. Watch the video of Nancy rip the Feb. 2020 sotu speech. Observe the message she communicated in her facial expression and body language. It was a call to civil war. Guilty

    Nancy Pelosi is stronger , more intelligent, a better person, and has way more power by her merits alone. Mccarthy. Is a sniveling coward full of jealousy, greed, and hate. He's trash and we need to take out the Trash in congress. Indict the Traitors. Vote them out! What ever it takes .Do we want garbage over running our country. NO!!!

  46. @aliciataylor2972

    December 30, 2023 at 10:01 am

    Its not much of a joke. It is the very evidence that McCarthy should never be speaker or in politics at all.
    He's a Traitor a seditionist and he proves he belongs in prison with the rest of the seditionists.
