Next she'll found the House Freedomer Caucus, supporting even more freedom than the regular Freedom Caucus.

And she'll be the only member and somehow get voted out of that a few months down the line.

Judith , Stan , Francis : [Murmurs of agreement and "splitters"]

Francis : And the Freedom Caucus of the House.

Reg , Judith , Stan : [More enthusiastic agreements]

Stan : And the House Caucus of Freedom!

Reg : [Agreements stop suddenly] What?

Stan : The House Caucus of Freedom, splitters!

Reg : We're the House Caucus of Freedom!

Stan : Oh! I thought we were the Caucus for Freedom.

Reg : Of Freedom!

Francis : Whatever happened to the Caucus for Freedom, eh?

Calling Boebart a bitch wasn't the reason at all, it was the excuse to shun her for being disloyal. She backed McCarthy as speaker and she backed the debt limit bill.

You can't go against the group when you're in a conservative group.

MTG may have made the difference in the US agreeing to pay the deficit interest on their bills. I am waiting for their (FC) next attack on children in school to be over rainbow colors in boxes of crayons.

Too dangerous when one of them actually believes the bullshit.
