Republicans: We’re going to punch ourselves in the face.

Democrats: No. Don’t.

Republicans: <punch themselves in the face by ousting McCarthy>

Democrats: …

Republicans: Why didn’t you stop me from punching myself in the face?

And yet, for some reason, these people keep getting elected. The truth is that there’s nobody there who is capable of even remotely up to leading that party, especially with the Freedom Caucus with their thumbs on the scale. It’s messy, it’s ugly, and it’s impeding our ability to govern.

This podcast episode get’s right to the heart of the current political unrest in the House of Representatives (brought to you by the Republicans, no matter what they might say).

The Republicans want to impeach Biden so badly that they kicked someone out of their “Freedom Caucus.” Here’s the deal: there are no high crimes or misdemeanors of which Biden is guilty to our awareness (and we definitely pay attention). These are prerequisites for an impeachment of a president. They argue that Biden's border policies (which, I remind you, mostly is extending the policies of Donald Trump) are allowing dangerous people to enter the US. They say this despite the fact that more migrants have been turned away under Biden than Donald Trump—which I’m officially against, but generally, Republicans go all gushy for.
