    House conservatives have a special group dedicated to preserving their
    power. Of course, it's called the FART team.

    House conservatives have organized a crack team to monitor to potential
    ways to undermine their power.
    The House Freedom Caucus has formed a Floor Action Response Team.
    Yes, they called it FART.

    The far-right House Freedom Caucus has formed a crack team of
    conservative lawmakers to monitor the House floor lest Speaker Mike
    Johnson or other Republicans try to limit their power.

    Naturally, the band of rabble-rousers that loves generating headlines
    for its members has called the group the Floor Action Response Team or
    FART. Because, why not?

    According to Politico, this group will make sure that no other
    Republicans try to rush through changes that would make it harder for
    lawmakers to oust Johnson from power or that would strip three Freedom
    Caucus members of a powerful perch they all hold. The publication
    reported that the Freedom Caucus does not expect any such maneuvers but
    is remaining vigilant just in case any of their colleagues try to be
    silent but deadly to their cause.

    Conservatives' tensions with Johnson have surged since the $1.2
    trillion government funding bill to avert a partial shutdown. Rep.
    Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Georgia Republican and former Freedom Caucus
    member, filed a motion to potentially remove Johnson from power in
    response to the funding bill. The situation has only grown worse after
    Johnson made clear he would allow the House to vote on additional US
    aid to Ukraine.

    Greene could force a vote on Johnson's future at any time. Earlier this
    week, Rep. Thomas Massie, a Kentucky Republican with a libertarian
    bent, became the first Republican to pledge to join Greene's effort
    publicly. Massie is also not a member of the Freedom Caucus, whose
    membership is technically secret, but he does support many of the
    caucus' broader aims.

    The team does not appear to be a new creation. The X account
    PatriotTakes, which frequently trolls Republicans, posted a clip in
    2022 of Rep. Lauren Boebert, a Colorado Republican and Freedom Caucus
    member, discussing a FART team.

    "Myself and other members of members of the House Freedom Caucus, we
    have a Floor Action Response Team," Boebert said during an appearance
    on a Blaze Media show. "F-A-R-T, I'm a mother of four boys, I can
    appreciate that."

    Kevin McCarthy is partially responsible for the stink.

    Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy initially resisted setting the "motion to
    vacate" at the threshold of just a single lawmaker before reversing
    himself to wrap up the votes to what ultimately became his doomed
    speakership. Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida made history by successfully
    using the motion to vacate to force McCarthy's ouster. Gaetz teamed up
    with seven other House Republicans and House Democrats to boot McCarthy
    from power.

    FART is also worried that more centrist GOP lawmakers could move to
    strip Massie, Rep. Chip Roy, and Ralph Norman from the powerful House
    Rules Committee. In another McCarthy-era concession, Republicans
    allowed the three conservative lawmakers to serve on the panel
    responsible for determining how most legislation reaches the floor. In
    recent weeks, the trio has increasingly used their power to effectively
    block Johnson from carrying out his agenda.

    On Wednesday evening, Rep. Mike Lawler, a New York Republican who
    represents a swing district, said the three lawmakers should either
    resign from the panel or be formally removed by their colleagues.

    "They are there on behalf of the conference, not themselves," Lawler
    wrote on X.

    While you were there, copying and pasting the entire article you
    couldn't also pick up the
    link?

    WTF?

    Swill

    There's this thing called Google (or one of its popular competitors)
    where you search stuff.

    You paste the headline, or first sentence, exactly as you see it and
    its link comes up immediately.

    Or many times you can just go directly to the site in question and see
    the article you want on the main page.

    You're welcome.

    Poor Phil Hendry/tRudy Canoza, he wanted all the notoriety the late Art
    Bell had in the fringe radio market, but everyone hated him for his manipulative voice-overs of characters that existed only in his
    tortured mind.

    In essence tRudy used Phil's functional mental illness as a proxy for
    his own decrepit schizophrenia and MPD.

    Bit of a case of life imitating art, this one is...

    Well sheeitburgers from Suckramento...here he goes again!

    It's another tRudy sock up:
