"Conservatives in the House Freedom Caucus are signing up to take shifts to monitor the chamber floor in order to prevent their own party leaders from making unilateral moves that could curb their power,” Politico reports.
“The Freedom Caucus’ Floor Action Response Team, shorthanded as ‘FART,’ aims to guard against an unannounced request to pass resolutions that would stealthily limit their leverage against leadership.”
“While one of the Republicans said the group largely doesn’t expect major developments, members also don’t want to be caught flat footed if a GOP colleague tried to seek unanimous consent or a voice vote for a resolution that would change the House’s structure. Two potential examples of threats the Freedom Caucus perceives: the removal of its members from the Rules Committee or changes to agreements made at the beginning of this Congress with former Speaker Kevin McCarthy.”
They’re burying the best part
The Freedom Caucus’ Floor Action Response Team, shorthanded as “FART,” aims to guard against an unannounced request to pass resolutions that would stealthily limit their leverage against leadership, according to two Republicans with direct knowledge, who were granted anonymity to speak candidly.
I wonder if they will create a joint Senate/House Action Response Team next…
The “Quorum of Underminers of Established Executive Functionality”
Maybe a Communist Union Network Team with a subcommittee headed by the Communist Union Manager.
EDIT: Might work better as an Anarcho-Communist Union Network Team.
So, obstruction on overtime. As a politician, it must be a sad, pathetic life letting these people control them and them willingly letting it happen.
Looks as though House Republicans are going a little crazy while Democrats stand back and watch.
