Somewhere out there is a document that the Republicans don’t want to talk about, a list of things that McCarthy agreed to in order to appease the fruitcake 10% that voted against him until they got those concessions.
From Axios:
A private document that only some House Republicans have seen and others refuse to talk about could play an outsized role in the governance of the chamber over the next two years.
Outsized? Like anyone found to have leaked it forfeits his or her life?
The document contains concessions — not included in the rules package passed on Monday night — that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) made to rebellious Freedom Caucus members to secure the speaker’s gavel.
Everyone in the country would love to see just how low McCarthy was forced to go. Is he now compelled to bring an impeachment when the freedom caucus decides it is time to impeach Biden? Is he tied to rejecting raising the debt ceiling? It is unknown whether we’ll ever see the list, but people have to know how valuable such a list would be. Someone might leak it in a fury against either McCarthy or the 10%.
Those members have threatened to kill McCarthy’s speakership as swiftly as they acquiesced to it if he reneges on their handshake agreements. The existence of a “secret three-page addendum” containing “the most controversial concessions” that McCarthy was confirmed to Axios by multiple GOP aides and members
FIND IT!!! Let’s all see how low McCarthy would go to snatch the power of the Speakership while already having given much of that power away. Compare McCarthy’s flying monkey cage to the smoothly run Hakeem Jeffries’ Democratic caucus. No comparison at all.
Amazing.

Can cavin’ kevin really keep this away from all the house members? That seems a bit odd. I get why he’d want to hide it-having everyone know who has his balls in a box somewhere is likely pretty fucking embarrassing. Still, seems like the entire house ought to be privy to this shit even if the general public isn’t.
Someone is going to talk. This crowd keeps a secret about as well as Trump practices dieting. May be a while but the need to brag will inevitably override their alleged better judgment.

Secret documents handing the assassins the power? Where’s their king going to build his castle after his minions have restored his autocracy? I guess they’ll let us know.
