In real good news today, Rep. Mark Green beat out Dan Crenshaw for Chair of the Homeland Security Committee. Maybe other Republicans agreed that a Representative who calls fellow Republicans “terrorists” and “enemies” when he lets his hair down shouldn’t run a Homeland Security committee.
Mark Green is far more conservative, and the Republican Party is supposed to be a conservative party.
Dan Crenshaw, a great admirer of Liz Cheney’s and many Democrat issues, is the reincarnation of a John McCain or a Mitt Romney.
Rep. Clay Higgins of Louisiana dropped out and nominated Green. It was a great move. Green is a physician and a member of the House Freedom Caucus.
NEWS: Rep. Mark GREEN (R-Tenn.) wins the Homeland Security gavel, I’m told.
He beat out Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas). https://t.co/uFO5zNyHPY

In other great news, Rep. Mike Rogers, who lunged at Rep. Matt Gaetz, has announced he’s stepping down from the House Steering Committee. Maybe the swamp is draining itself. Rogers never showed the level of antagonism toward Democrats that he did towards Rep. Gaetz.
Two swampy reps down, hundreds to go.
Rep. Gaetz was very gracious and asked that he not suffer punishment. We don’t want to see anyone punished, but we like the idea of Rogers changing his ways and punishing himself. It will go a long way toward redeeming him if he’s redeemable. He does come from the great state of Alabama.

.@RepMikeRogersAL and I have a six-year productive, working relationship. We’re going to work together wonderfully going forward.
I don’t think there should be any punishment or reprisal just because he had an animated moment.
He has my forgiveness. pic.twitter.com/bXERia3a0j

Yes, I just saw this elsewhere. It’s GREAT news! Not only a most excellent Congressman takes the helm on the “Homeland Security” :::cough::: Committee, but a perfect jackass gets his posterior handed to him in the process. A two-fer.
As for Fisticuffs Rogers, your comment is top-notch: “Maybe the Swamp is draining itself.”
Knock me over with a feather.
Matt Gaetz is truly a forgiving and outstanding leader. However, Crenshaw is not fit to serve in Congress. If he is honest he should quit and come back as a democrat. Frankly, I think he has mental problems and should concentrate on getting himself fixed first. Mike Rogers may have opened up a can of worms on himself. Americans would get fired for drinking on the job and if there were kickbacks for voting for war that would be criminal. Both of them should leave Congress for their own sake and for their country.
That is great news, which I had not heard yet.
I don’t have to know a lot about Crenshaw to see that he has some connections to the corrupt establishment. We do not want that misfit to be in charge of overseeing the border control. His knee jerk vindictiveness towards dissent shows a deep problem, as with Cheney and Kinzinger.
Rogers wants wars and lots of money spent. He can send his first born to war. He’s another junk establishment insider trying to please the elites. His lunge did not look so bad, his words probably were worse.
Both of these nuts are happy to pick fights with conservatives.
Looking at Dan Crenshaw yesterday on the Sunday Talks Shows, he has realized that he may have torpedoed his Political Career. Calling Republicans Terrorist killed any ambitions of “National” or even State Wide Office. He will be Primaried in 2024 by very strong candidates.
Mike Rogers has a bigger problem. Apparently he had been drinking and that won’t go over well in Alabama. In addition, his outburst has now shown light on the Military Industrial Complex. If the MIC dumps Rogers he will have a serious problem raising campaign money and will find himself being Primaried in 2024 by strong candidates.
Both these Representatives have migrated over the the RINO Dark Side of the Party and the RINOs are going to be under serious scrutiny over the next 21 months. If they don’t give up their Communist RINO ways, they are dead meat in 2024. The Economy is still in decline and anything looking Liberal will be the Kiss of Death for a Republican. It’s the Economy Stupid and The People know that there is rampant Election Fraud in America. The People don’t like their pockets picked and Elections stolen. When it comes to Elections the appearance of impropriety is impropriety and 2/3 of Americans know there is Election Fraud!
Not surprising! The Good Guys really are good, kind, gracious and forgiving, ready to move the team forward.
I liked M. Dowling’s comment – “It will go a long way toward redeeming him if he’s redeemable.” Let’s hope he is redeemable and become a greater asset.
