[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 350296, member: 35"] The squad and their supporters in the neoliberal online media world who’ve fallen in line behind Biden, Pelosi and Schumer would be happy if everyone forgot about [URL='https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/forcethevote']#ForceTheVote[/URL]. But you know who didn’t forget? The Freedom Caucus in the GOP, which is currently using their leverage to extract concessions in exchange for their speaker vote. The funny thing is they're doing so in exactly the same way many progressives had hoped the squad would do at this time two years ago. But they didn’t, and as a result they were exposed as go-along, get-along institutionalists who would never challenge the power centers of the Democratic Party. So far, McCarthy has lost 7 house votes to become speaker. This marks 100 years since the House last struggled to elect a speaker. While Republicans and Democrats alike are corrupt tools who do the bidding of corporations, Wall Street, and the military industrial complex, the one thing Republicans have going for them is they are competent strategists. They aren't afraid to use their leverage in order to extract concessions from members of their own party. In contrast, the progressives in the Democratic Party kowtow to party leadership and often become what they once railed against.
