Gym fucking Jordan? Are you fucking kidding me? How is he thinking this is the moment for pedophile protectors to take the reins? JFC
For them, protecting pedophiles right now, is a requirement...not an option. Democrats are going to be investigating everyone, so they need someone in charge with experience at covering shit up.
Shhh, let them do it. MAGA is radioactive at this point.
Gym Jordan sexually assaulted children.
Of course he did! It's a qualification for any Republican Leadership position.
Yes, and Importantly, covered it up for years. Which is exactly what the Republicans want right now. The Dem leadership is definitely going to use their powers to investigate all the shit the Republicans have been covering up, including that. Actually going after the pedophiles the Republicans have been hyping their base up about for the last decade or so is a good way to maintain some support from voters that crossed over this election. The Dems don't have an issue cleaning their own house, even when it isn't really warranted like Al Franken, so it's not really a threat for them.
And exposing the pedophile members of Congress is a good way to start cleaning house. Congress can expel members, and while generally uncommon other than the Confederates expelled in 1861/1862, in the House, James Traficant was expelled in 2002 and George Santos was expelled in 2023. In the Senate, John Ensign was going to be expelled in 2011 but he chose to resign before that happened. It's uncommon, but isn't some long lost capability no one knows about anymore.
The pedo cover-up guy wants to do it? What you going to do r's.
Jim Jordan, chair of the House Judiciary Committee, has already thrown his hat into the ring and announced he’s running for House minority leader.
Gymnasium Jordan. Looks like he has a strict diet of armpit hair. That's the guy.
They'll pick him. Because that's exactly what they need. They need someone to help cover up everything from the Dem investigations.
Have you ever heard him talk though? That has to annoy them too.
Have you heard Trump talk? He hasn't been able to finish a single coherent sentence for years now. It's most obvious when you try to read a transcript of what he says. It's all catchphrases and little clips strung together as if they form sentences. And their propaganda network has to cut it up to make a coherent thought from it. But that's what they already do anyway, probably why his dementia has made him talk like that in the first place now.
AAAAAAAAhahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahhaahhahahahahaha... sigh.
jordan is a creep and criminal too
It's going to be Scalisce. The donors won't touch Jordon. Aside from being a degenerate, he's also a moron and a bad hang.
Yep. Even among Rs the leader has to be able to work with all, and Gym Jordan does NOT have that ability. Last time he was in the running for leadership, in multiple rounds of voting he only ever lost votes, never gained.
On the other hand, I can't even count the number of times Scalise has almost been Republican leader and then lost to someone else. I mean almost every single Congress for the last dozen years, and specifically against Keven McCarthy more than once. Scalise has also been whip at least once, which is a help, and they all seem to like him.
So yeah, Scalise was my first thought as well. But all those other times he was actively campaigning for leadership, and there is the possibility he may not want it now, in which case it's anybody's guess.
But it won't be Jordan, any more than it would ever be Ted Cruz: they just don't like him that much, and he's a bully. Republicans like bullies in general; they just don't like being bullied.
I also think it's telling that in 2023, the one time Jordan actually got close to being Speaker for a hot second because they just couldn't pick one after multiple rounds of voting, they finally removed Jordan from the race for Speaker by secret ballot.
I think you're right. It's possible but HIGHLY unlikely that the minority leader will be Jordan, IMO.
Scalise has been cruising on the "I got shot" thing for a while now.
I guess when your party is feckless and vapid, you hold onto any "story" you can get.
But I'm convinced that him getting shot was the best thing to ever happen to his career as a Republican politician.
Am I the only person who saw this sentence?
According to Punchbowl News, Jordan’s pitch will be that new blood is needed and that he specializes in investigations.
After reading that, I thought Punchbowl News must be a top-tier satire publication, but apparently, Jim Jordan seriously said that he, a person whose biggest claim to fame is that he refused to investigate repeated claims of SA on college students for unknown years, "specializes in investigations" and that they need "new blood".
Is he so dense that he could say something like that without realizing what it means? Or is he secretly reminding people what he's done, in an effort to taunt his victims, like serial killers have done in the past?
This has been such a satisfying news day. It’s been too long.
I’m surprised he’s aware that they lost the majority. Normally it takes forever for him to hear news.
Damn. People voted so hard they bullied this loser into quitting lol. Don't stop now! Demand Democrats actually improve people's lives.
In order to do that we need to replace the house and senate leadership.

I guess it makes sense that Gym Jordan world be the heir apparent. He's like a veruca, he just won't go away. Plus, he's the last one of the League of Extraordinary Dipshits left. Marge Taylor-Greene quit after her feud with Trump kicked off; Lauren Boebert just lost her re-election (finally!); and Matt Gaetz was forced out of politics, and is presumably now busy focusing on his main career - trafficking underaged girls across state lines.
a veruca
Huh, never heard that word outside of the name Veruca Salt. Apparently it's another term for a plantar wart, for anyone else reading.
I learned the word from the Verruca Gnome in Discworld's Hogfather book.
Yeah, they are often transmitted through public swimming pools. I had one when I was a kid and it was really difficult to get rid of. There's medication that's supposed to kill them, but it didn't work for me. I'm the end I physically cut that fucker out. Problem solved.
Republicans hate minorities, they can't cope with being one again in Congress...
I'm not surprised Johnson is stepping back. He only got elected as a deep compromise due to a thin majority and several failed ballots. The very special circumstance that got him elected is gone.

Welcome to the club of the ex-future leaders of the Republican party.
Did his job, his legacy will be leading one of the least productive bodies of Congress ever.
I'm every single photo I've ever seen of him, he just looks confused to hell. Like he's having super early dementia.
I mean I know he's just plain evil, but he looks confused as hell, and Patel always looks awkward as fuck.
Loser ceded his authority to the fascist in chief so I can’t imagine this is much of a change for his day to day
Jeffries and Schumer should have both stepped down after the embarrassing 2024 losses.
I was struggling yesterday to remember whst this guys name is. He just carries trumps diaper bag now and rubber stamps his crimes. He didnt quit leadership, he got sidelined. Like all trumps allies, its only a matter of time until trump backstabs or scapegoats them.
Jordan’s pitch will be that new blood is needed and that he specializes in investigations
Yeah, of his own belly button.
Whomever leads Republicans in the House will be a sleazy little shit who lives to suck Trump's stinking little toadstool.
Bye bye squeker of the house. 👋
Now he doesn't need to run off like a coward at the faintest sight of a disagreement.
They're eating their young. I'm sending (yet another) e-mail to our RethugliKKKan Senator, asking if she regrets not removing it from office as I demanded so many times in the past. Her reply will be priceless.
But God told him to be the new Noah! How can he shirk his responsibility like this?!
God, what a punchable face.
Retiring to a dacha on the Black Sea?
I really really really hate this snake and hope he will be prosecuted for his deeds.
God sent a tornado to Mike Johnson's front door aka the highest populated districts on election day.
What a loser and a coward he is.
This guy?
The guy who’s parents probably dressed him like an old man with a briefcase from the age of 5?
The guy who looks like he went to boarding school as a kid, soil himself regularly and noone liked him there because he would tell on everyone?
The same guy who was most likely never invited, even out of sympathy, to any parties in University because he still dressed like an old man with a briefcase, never got laid because of his Oedipal complex, and would rat his entire alumni out for a pat on the head from the professors?
That guy?
Colour me absolutely fucking unsurprised. He made less effort to hide his wretched being than Grima Wormtongue.
That guy?
I'm sure that a company that caters to highly conservative people who feel the need to be "kept honest" with their browsing history does a bangup job keeping their servers up to date, and no foreign intelligence teams focus on it at all after the Speaker of the House bragged about using it.
That's not just weird. That's weeeeird.
These guys are just so absolutely non human.
The way I tend to think about it these days is that this guy is part of a community where that kind of thing is normal; otherwise, why would he share it?
If anything sexual is so big of a deal to him (and I infer it is from the statements he made), then how does that align with shielding his boss from the allegations made against him?
I don't know... pretty sure, behind closed doors, lil man LOVES him some humiliation!
Specializes in investigations and slithers away from ones he is the subject of.
