Is this the "functioning" House of Representatives?

It's a huge disgrace. I honestly can't understand how anyone in their right mind can vote Republican anymore.

Our govt isn't functional. Hasn't been for years. Where have you been?

Let me help you. REPUBLICANS have kept the govt from functioning. They put up ridiculous bills that they know they will not pass, they purposely hurt our National Security (looking at you Tommy T), and shut down govt if they don’t get their way. Don’t blame Democrats. You may not like their policies, but they are in government to enact legislation.

I don't like their policies and their lack of agility. I don't like that federal service has become a jobs program and that's there's a ridiculous number of layers of management in federal bureaucracies. I don't like the fact that we're paying more than ever for .gov and getting less.

I don't like that they screw up everything they touch and they've become an income transfer scheme for the progressive left. Your answer to everything is to throw more money at it.

My answer is to cut it severely and get rid of whole layers of management in government (AKA, the rubber-stamp brigade) and bring back the agility for it to be effective again.

Government - If you think the problems we create are bad, just wait until you see our solution.

Numbers and specifics please.

Let’s start with one number:
Johnson’s salary is $223,500.
That number doesn’t include benefits
That number doesn’t include how much we are paying for him to swan around Paris for the long weekend
That number doesn’t include what we are paying his staffers for benefits and salary.

And what is Johnson and his staff doing to appropriate monies to fund the government? Nothing.

Let’s cut out that waste first.

Bills GOP brought up for votes this week.

Bill to prevent the government from using the word "latin-x"
Bill to cut WH press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre's and SEC Chair Gary Gensler's salaries to $1
Bill to defund the office of gun violence prevention
Bill to eliminate the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
Bill to prevent the government from developing greenhouse gas disclosure rules
Bill to eliminate 50% of the budget for the consumer product safety commission

How does this help everyday Americans?

He has released the House for the weekend and he is a scheduled speaker at a conference in Paris. She can deny whatever she wants, but the facts kind of speak for themselves.

Yep taxpayers pay them not to work
Taxpayers are paying those clowns to continue to over throw the gov of the US and meet with their Nazi loving friends to discuss facism and dictatorship for the US

If you are still a Republican you are stupid. Your life is going to suck when they win in 2024

You idiots think you will keep your guns how’s that working for citizens of North Korea? God Republicans are stupid, they will take your social security as well your money and you will hand it to them because you are dumb and who will suffer Republicans

Did any of the people who are reporting this check with the Speaker's office regarding his travel plans?

Is Johnson at work today? Or did he release everyone early yesterday?

That’s all that matters. If he’s partying in Paris, then it’s just insult upon injury.

No - what matters is if journalist are actually reporting facts by gathering information from all sources.
Sounds like they aren't.

It’s spun, baby.
Why are you trying to deflect with accusations against journalists? Johnson’s not at work and not is the rest of his conference.

They haven't denied he is speaking, as is currently advertised. If he is speaking by zoom to the conference, why doesn't his office just say that? If he decided to pull out of the conference, why doesn't his office say that? His office could quickly quell the uproar by clarifying this. Saying "his is not traveling this weekend" doesn't mean the same thing as "he is not speaking at the conference" or "he was scheduled but pulled out" or "he is speaking there but by zoom, so he is not traveling." Strange that is so difficult to do.

Apparently it is too difficult.

They asked his office who refused to provide answers about what he was doing. Why won’t they just say what he’s up to? What’s he hiding?
