The vote was the first legislative battle for newly elected Speaker Kevin McCarthy
...the GOP house majority whip. He replaces Eric Cantor, who got whupped because his politix are like Kevin McCarthy's...

#5  Gaetz is vastly smarter and more cunning than McCarthy!

#4  At this point it looks like the holdouts have won. I suspected such when I saw the one dude have to be choked out to keep him off of Gaetz. The pressure of all the Uniparty will be on McCarthy to resist, neutralize and end all of the investigations. He seems ill-suited to the position that he wanted so badly. There is evidence that Gaetz is much smarter than McCarthy. They both need to hire food tasters.

#3   It's deliberately loaded language

It’s The Hill, the newspaper of the Washington, DC establishment. We expect nothing less.

#1  "hardliners"

"backroom deals"

"extreme right"

Propaganda is so easy to spot when you know how. It's deliberately loaded language designed to elicit an emotional reaction. The same method is used to silence critics of the Biden crime family's corruption in Ukraine, up to and including pointing out Nazi collaboration.
