Rep. Nancy Mace has ripped Speaker Mike Johnson for the way he has run the House of Representatives in a New York Times op-ed, the latest sign of discontent among Republicans with the speaker.

Mace, a former moderate who moved hard to the right who is now running for governor, criticized Johnson and House leadership for closing the lawmaking process and concentrating it among themselves.

“Would opening up the floor lead to more conservative bills passing or more bipartisan ones? The honest answer is: It would do both,” she wrote.

“Some Republican priorities would finally get a vote. So, too, would common-sense bipartisan measures. The point is to do more and let voters see where their representatives stand. What we have now is the worst of all worlds: little accountability, transparency and results.”

        President Piggy wearing a cheap polyester suit and fake silk tie. Not to mention his girdle, lifts and that weird orange face paint. I’ve met whores with more class than him, and wearing wayyyyy less makeup.

        Most of them wear the same damned outfit so not really any way to do that to most. But folks have been making fun of Trump’s clothes for forever and if you want to expand it to pissants in politics but aren’t elected then Musk exists.

        You know you’re making a bad faith point? That’s just not the reality we live in.

        I mean if they wore a bright baby blue 70s suit with those classic over extended undershirt lapels, I’d comment, but the most we get in variation is John Fetterman.

        How can you comment on content that doesn’t exist, they all wear traditional suits.
