Failure to govern, failure to mature

 

I read this article in late August, but it's even more appropriate and timely now.

Chance of a government shutdown grows

Before supporting a continuing resolution (CR), the Freedom Caucus is demanding the legislation include:

- A House-passed border security bill;
- A way to “address the unprecedented weaponization” of the Justice Department and the FBI; and
- Provisions that would put an “end” to the “woke polices in the Pentagon.”

The group didn’t specify how to address Justice Department “weaponization” or how to end “woke policies” in the military.

CRs generally extend existing funding levels and are usually free of such big policy provisions, but the group is seeking to leverage House Republicans’ razor thin majority to force a shutdown showdown right from the start.

The group’s escalatory and “unrealistic” tactics are becoming an increasing source of frustration for some of their GOP colleagues.

In essence, they are immature children who demand there own way, or they won't play.

And they are making it worse, threatening to end McCarthy's speakership (which hasn't been good anyway) and not pass a CR until Biden's impeachment (a demand that McCarthy caved on).

Useless.  This is not the way to run a country.

But they're so stupid they don't even recognize that.
