So, as most of you know, congress ended up voting in a historic 15th round of voting late last night into the early morning hours of Jan 7th. The 6 patriots who were standing firm who would not put their stamp of approval on Kevin McCarthy voted "present" which lowered the threshold of 215 for the number of votes needed to be elected speaker of the house. Kevin McCarthy received 216 votes to win for the Speaker of the House.
But it's VERY important to note that:
Kevin McCarthy basically had to be put into a "straight Jacket" before the patriots would give him the votes to become speaker. What I mean by this is that he had to agree to adhere to the demands of the patriots, who were standing firm. Some good things came out of this and "if" Kevin McCarthy does not hold to his word and do what was agreed to, Kevin McCarthy will be removed as the speaker of the House via the "motion to vacate" clause. And through this constitutional process of debate, there are important policies being put back in place, like a "motion to vacate" the chair or remove the speaker that was removed by Nancy Pelosi.
-
The concessions that Kevin McCarthy had to agree to include the following:
The most important concession made by McCarthy is the motion to vacate.
One of the key concessions made by Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy in his bid to be House speaker was to restore the ability of a single member to call for a no-confidence vote in the speaker, a provision he opposed early this week, but one he agreed to on Wednesday to win over the most conservative members of the GOP conference.
The demand by the patriots would restore the House rule on vacating the chair to what it was before Rep. Nancy Pelosi was elected speaker in 2019. Under Pelosi, a motion to vacate could be offered on the House floor only if a majority of either party agreed to it. Before that rule change, a single member could move for a vote to unseat the speaker.
The ability of a single House lawmaker to propose a motion to "vacate the chair" — or to bring to the floor a vote of no confidence in the speaker — had been a key sticking point for some of the Republicans who opposed McCarthy's bid to be speaker.
McCarthy countered with a proposed rule that would allow a motion to "vacate the chair" with the support of five members, rather than one. That didn't satisfy some of the most conservative members of his caucus, including Reps. Scott Perry and Byron Donalds, both of whom voted against him on every ballot earlier in the week.
A motion to vacate is a formal proposal, either to 'vacate' (or reverse) the decision in a matter which had previously been formally ruled upon or decided, or to replace the holder of a presiding position.
In a parliamentary context, as used in a legislative body, a motion to vacate is made by a member of the body to propose that the presiding officer (or 'chair') step down. That is commonly referred to as a "motion to vacate the chair".
In the U.S. House of Representatives
The use of a motion to vacate the chair has been very rare in the United States House of Representatives, where under House rules it was considered a privileged motion, meaning any Member can offer such a motion at any time and is subject to an immediate vote. However, in the 116th Congress, House rules were amended so that motions to vacate would not be privileged "except if offered by direction of a party caucus or conference".
A motion to vacate the chair has been attempted twice in the House of Representatives: in March 1910 and in July 2015. The 2015 motion, filed by Mark Meadows to vacate the speakership of John Boehner, was non-privileged and was referred to the Rules Committee instead of triggering an immediate floor vote. The motion, however, contributed to the eventual resignation of Boehner in September 2015.
Changing the House rules to empower every lawmaker to call for a vote to oust the Speaker at any time; giving the House Freedom Caucus, of which most of the patriots are members, four seats on the powerful House Rules Committee; and appointing some of the chamber’s most conservative lawmakers as chairs to a handful of subcommittees. McCarthy also agreed to allow floor votes on a border security bill and a measure that would institute term limits on House members.
The moves constitute a significant overture to McCarthy’s adversaries, which would give them greater leverage to be disruptive during the next congressional term.
The other concessions are:
McCarthy agreed to lower the threshold for beginning the process to remove the speaker to one single member of the GOP conference, down from the majority required under former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s tenure.
McCarthy agreed to lower the threshold to five members in a departure from his previous stance that he would not budge on what’s known as “the motion to vacate.”
Kevin McCarthy agreed to as part of the concession that the Congressional Leadership Fund will stay out of primaries (something the McCarthy defectors wanted because they believe the super PAC thwarts conservative candidates) and McCarthy has agreed to install more House Freedom Caucus members on the powerful House rules committee.
House Freedom Caucus members could force a significant change to the budget process on the rules committee by requiring individual votes on the 12 appropriations bills that make up what’s known as the “omnibus package,” while McCarthy has also agreed to conduct a separate approval process for earmarks.
-
While the motion to vacate has drawn the most attention, McCarthy’s concession related to the House Rules Committee may be the most impactful. Allowing more members of the House Freedom Caucus, most of whom seem to relish chaos and causing a spectacle, on the pivotal committee that determines which bills can make it to the House floor could make a concrete difference on legislators’ ability to perform basic functions.
Those concessions are pretty huge, and they put some very real limitations on what McCarthy can do to manage the House floor and might have the largest repercussions on the appropriations process, particularly when it comes time to fund the government later this year. Last month, Congress passed a $1.7 trillion omnibus spending package that will keep the government’s doors open through September.
The Freedom Caucus members were among the most adamant in their opposition to the spending package, and have brought it up repeatedly this week. They say McCarthy is too willing to work with Democrats to contribute, in their view, to a bloated federal government. McCarthy tried to push back on that impression by voting against the omnibus, but it seemed to his detractors as too little, too late.
The House Freedom Caucus has long been a thorn in the side of House Republican leadership. In 2015, then-Speaker John Boehner resigned under pressure from the more conservative wing of his caucus. In his memoir, Boehner referred to one of the group’s spiritual ringleaders, Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, as a “political terrorist.” Jordan, for his part, has supported McCarthy for Speaker, even as many of his closest allies have done everything to torpedo McCarthy’s bid.

It's also very important to understand that what took place over the last 4 days was the remnant Patriots standing up and fighting for what is right for the American people. None of their efforts went unnoticed, and none of their efforts to stand up for the American people were a waste of anyone's time. This is not what we have seen for far too long, and quite honestly it's the main reason we are in the mess we are in right now. And the fact that we are seeing this is proof the things are changing for the better for the best interest of we the people. Because like I said the other day if it was "business as usual" these remnant Patriots would not have stood up with courage and boldness against the establishment like they did.
As the world witnessed, they stood up with courage and boldness for what is right for the American people, and there is nobody that can deny that.
It's a very good sign that we as a nation are headed in the right direction, and it's also a sign that we have a congress of some conservative Patriots in the majority who do in fact have the best interest of we the People.
And it's also a very good sign that we have members of Congress representing us who will hold the government accountable for their actions and all of its leaders.
In closing...
I am looking forward to seeing the outcome of the many investigations that the Republican led majority is and will conduct through the House Judiciary Committee over the next several months.
Some of the investigations on the list are:
Joe Biden
Hunter Biden
The Hunter Biden Laptop
Joe Biden's connection to Hunter's business deals in Ukraine
2020 Election Fraud
The origins of "Covid"
The "safety" and "efficacy" of the so-called "vaccines"
The collusion of the FBI, CIA, and DOJ with Big Tech to censor people.
Kevin McCarthy, Speaker of The House!
