    Ok wtf CNN. Decided to take a look. First line:

    Republicans on the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus are considering quitting the group “en masse” after Democratic members voted to oust Kevin McCarthy as speaker, a GOP member said.

    I’m sorry who called for his removal and actually cast the votes that kicked him out?

      The guy backed out of the deal he agreed to and then brought forward an impeachment investigation on Biden and then expected the democrats to protect him. The guy played himself like a fiddle.

          It’s funny for a guy that wanted that job so bad, it’s as if he tried to lose it by pissing off as many people as he could. The funny part now is that the moderate Republicans are now talking about working with the Democrats to get in someone they agree with and render the far right obsolete.

      CNN is just as bad as McCarthy trying to play both sides and failing for both. What a deplorable outlet.
