Just in: "BREAKING NEWS The House passed legislation to avert a government shutdown after Democrats rescued a temporary spending plan that many Republicans opposed. " The vote was something like 365 to 95. Wasn't Kevin's similar to that? Any bets on how long Mikey gets to keep his job?

I think democrats came to the conclusion that though odd, this was a clean CR and worth supporting. Especially since they could marginalize the crazies. If the crazies go after Johnson, I still do not think democrats will save him, but if they get rid of Johnson, I think there are a number of republicans that will vote for Jeffries.

We'll see what tomorrow's news will bring. Will Gaetz open his big mouth again, or has he learned nobody likes him any more?

Good evening (night, day) Ms Seifert,

"Will Gaetz open his big mouth again, or has he learned nobody likes him any more?"

Yes, and yes. The first because he can't help himself and the other because he just doesn't give a rat's patoot, he's still auditioning to be a seven figure-paid talking head on one of the far right networks (he's probably got wetdreams that he is the next Tucker Carlson).
