Don’t worry Kevin, your secret is safe with me. Nobody will ever learn from me that you secretly wear Trump branded boxers in royal blue, with the words Mr. Speaker embroidered on them in gilt thread. My lips are sealed.

Recently I wrote that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy was playing with fire with his choices for members for the 1/6 panel. McCarthy put a couple of Trump firebrands on the panel, and the American people didn’t want bullshit, they wanted answers.

Personally, I had thought that Pelosi would accept all 5 McCarthy picks, and let the two idiots provide public contrast between the two sides. After all, she had 3 pretty serious GOP House members, which would have provided the Democrats with healthy 9-4 or even 10-3 votes going forward. Instead, she rejected two members, one as a possible material witness subject to a call to testify, and one for publicly stating that this was just another political platform for him.

And right on schedule, McCarthy boned the bow-wow. The smart move for McCarthy would have been to accept the slap, and then turn around and appoint two more Trump shills to the panel. That way, when Pelosi rejected those two as well, McCarthy could have run in front of the nearest camera and screamed that Pelosi was running a sham committee, and only wanted RINO flunkies who would follow the herd. Instead, he theatrically pulled all 5 appointees, and announced his own inquisition, which he can’t hold, being in the minority and having no committee chairs.

You know, you can’t buy or teach this kind of incompetent stupid, it is literally a gift from God. In one fell swoop, McCarthy pissed away any fleeting chance he ever had of becoming House Speaker. Because in his enthusiasm, he made the fatal mistake of forgetting exactly who his real master is.

Think about what happens going forward. The panel will have 7 deadly serious Democrats along with a deadly serious GOP member who has already voted to impeach Donald Trump, as well as taking both Jordan and McCarthy to the wood shed in the media. They will hold serious hearings, many televised, asking serious questions, and getting serious answers. And there will be no counter argument!

Which is going to give El Pendejo Presidente a coronary cow. Trump wants people on that panel on the GOP side, getting into the trenches and going to the wall for him, and the hell with optics. And by emptying the panel, instead of tinkering around the edges and getting at least two Trump defenders on that panel, and instead he pulled everybody and left Trump without a single voice at the table.

If you hear banging and sawing going on outside, don’t worry, those are just carpenters at Bedminster building a dog house with McCarthy’s name on it. The sight of these nationally televised hearings with Trump being pilloried with nobody defending him is guaranteed to drive Trump insane. And McCarthy is the idiot that let it happen. Personally, the longer these hearings go on, it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if Traitor Tot called for a loyalist rebellion in the House to strip McCarthy of his Minority Leader post. Blood is going to be required for Trump, and McCarthy is the logical candidate.

You lay down with wolves, and you wake up with teeth marks. Being a Trump acolyte has always been a perilous profession, simply because his mentality is so mercurial, and he totally lacks loyalty to others. McCarthy lasted a long time, but today I think he did a Wallenda, and fell off of the tightrope. Tough shit.

    • NO…McCarthy was smart, he wouldn’t be a Trump toady. As it stands, he’s just upped his chances of being pulled from leadership, possibly even the entire party, when Liz Cheney takes it over.

    • I don’t think so…I’m positive that Trump told McCarthy to name Jordan to get his pit bull, vut according to a report on MSNBC, when Pelpso told McCarthy she was yanking the two of them, she said McCarthy “literally threw a temper tantrum” and pulled everybody…He let his temper get away with him, and now there’s no way back to getting people on that committee…

  1. Murf: … and announced his own inquisition, which he can’t hold, being in the minority and having no committee chairs.”

    Hmm, I wouldn’t put it past them to hold their own sham hearings, televised ONLY on Fox ONAN Q & Newmax.

    Nah, they’d never do that…

    • Except rhat they’d have to hold the stupid things off campus and pay for it themselves…You have to chair a committee to call for a hearing and use House hearing rooms…1The GOP is in the minority, so they can’t call a hearinf or investigation…

  2. My question is if Bakersfield has had enough of this idiot or will they send him back? Anyone doing any polling in the district?

  3. When McCarthy picked Jordan, I told my friend “I have no idea what Speaker Pelosi is going to do, but I’m sure it will be the right choice because she’s so much better at this than I could ever hope to be.”

    Then she made her choice and, yep, it sure seemed like the right choice.

  4. YES YES .. forgot this part. They will hold #serioushearings, many #televised, asking serious #questions, and getting serious #answers.

    AND ALL OF IT WILL BE FOREVER RECORDED IN THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD.

    And there will be no counter argument!
