THE NAKED SPEAKER

Quick Summary:

The Naked Speaker

In order to ascend to the throne he has coveted for so many years, newly minted Speaker #JoeJrMcCarthy has had to agree to so many concessions to the far-right Freedom Caucus that he retains little more than a ‘figleaf’ vestige of real power – to cover his remaining political modesty – in a last ditch effort to placate the ‘Burn It All Down” Right.  Thus, with little or no power to manage the Republican House, he will quickly start to suffer from indecent political exposure.  Infected with the one member ‘Vacate the Chair’ rule crawling around in his fevered head, tornado tantrums from the Freedom Caucus right will strip him of even that memento, to be cast naked into the abyss of the freezing political void.

ELECTION OF THE SPEAKER

Reading the results of the 15th Ballot:

The CLERK. “The tellers agree in their tallies that the total number of votes cast is 428, of which the Honorable Kevin McCarthy of the State of California has received 216, the Honorable Hakeem Jeffries of the State of New York has received 212, with 6 recorded as present. Therefore, the Honorable Kevin McCarthy of the State of California, having received a majority of the votes cast, is duly elected Speaker of the House of Representatives for the 118th Congress.”

Five Days and 15 Votes

After 5 days and 15 nationally televised grinding floor votes, the brawling House Republicans can finally applaud a new Speaker, Kevin McCarthy, of California. He successfully whittled down the original 20 ‘Never-Kevin’ holdouts to 6 for the 14th vote on Thursday evening, January 5, 2023.

However, on the 14th vote he still fell short at 216 at 11:15PM because of the 6 holdouts voting for others.  Frustrated but not defeated, McCarthy went in person to confer with the final 6 holdouts.  It was fascinating to view the televised floor as most Republicans were caucusing in groups frantically trying to determine a way forward for the 15th upcoming vote.  But with tempers flaring they determined that it would be best to adjourn for the evening to give time for more backroom arm-twisting, and then return on Friday, January 6, for the 15th vote.

But as the tabulation of the votes for the Motion to Adjourn were almost complete, several holdouts, most notably Matt Goetz of Florida, wound their way to the well and changed their votes on the Motion to Adjourn  from Aye to Nay. Enough Republicans then changed their votes that the motion to adjourn went quickly from agreed to defeated.  Thus the Final 6 hard-line holdouts signaled that they were ready to end their opposition.

The 15th vote went forward and all six holdouts voted ‘present’ instead of ‘McCarthy’ thus maintaining some semblance of political honor. But by voting ‘present’ those 6 were removed from needed total of votes. The result was that Kevin McCarthy secured 216 votes, the minimum needed on that vote. The House Republicans erupted in applause.  The Democrats, of course, could have cared less knowing what the future will bring.

About 12:50AM on Friday morning, January 6 2023, Kevin McCarthy was sworn in as Speaker of the House.  He gave an rousing acceptance speech, which was followed by a rousing speech from the new Democratic Minority leader, Hakeem Jeffries.

The upcoming two years in the House to the next election is guaranteed to be fractious and chaotic based upon the nasty Republican feud over the Speakership. In return for the votes by the hardliners, McCarthy had to agree to several onerous House Rule changes that will make his job even tougher with very little power to control his House Republican Hard-line Terrorists.

McCarthy’s Rule Changes needed to win the Freedom Caucus Holdouts:

  1. Motion to Vacate the Chair > Allows just one member to force a vote to remove the Speaker at any time, although it requires a majority to approve the motion. Still, it makes McCarthy’s Speakership nothing more than a day-to-day office.  It is basically the same as a vote of no confidence.
  2. Safe-Seat Primaries > Club for Growth required that any PAC controlled by McCarthy not interfere with their open Republican “safe-seat primaries” so they do not have spend money defending their extremists candidates.
  3. Committee assignments > the Freedom Caucus demanded more representation on committees, including the influential House Rules Committee.
  4. Office of Congressional Ethics > Republicans plan to remove all but one Democrat and paralyze its funding so that they can hide their wrongdoing again.
  5. Conservative bills > Separate votes must be held on certain conservative bills > a balanced budget amendment, congressional term limits, and border security.
  6. Debt Ceiling > Any proposal to raise the nation’s debt ceiling must be accompanied by spending cuts.
  7. Discretionary Spending – Discretionary spending must be capped at fiscal year 2022 levels. This would obviously mean lower levels of appropriations for defense and domestic programs.
  8. 12 Appropriations Bills – these standard bills to fund the government must be considered individually, instead of combining them in an Omnibus bill.
  9. 72 Hours > Give members at least 72 hours to review bills before they come to floor for debate and a votes.
  10. Floor Amendments > Members must have the ability to offer amendments to bills on the House floor.

Legislative Agenda

House Republicans will be limited in their ability to pass bills through Congress with Democrats in control of the Senate and the White House — where the president can exercise veto power over legislation. Still, House Republicans will be able to push messaging bills that highlight their agenda.

Speech, Speech

Speaker McCarthy stated in his acceptance speech that the following issues are part of his plan for the House:

  • Tackling inflation
  • Rising crime
  • Border security
  • Accountability (and Impeachment) proceedings – which some Freedom Caucus members have been demanding for months
  • Funding the Government (Debt Ceiling) – this fight will test the power of the Speaker to control the Freedom Caucus who have threatened to shut down the government if they do not get their way.
  • Defunding the IRS of the new agents
  • Form a Committee to investigate Weaponization of the Federal government against the citizens (Trump, of course)
  • End oil sales to China from the Strategic Oil Reserve
  • Prosecute ‘Woke’ prosecutors

INVESTIGATIVE AGENDA

The Freedom Caucus has been pushing for investigations into the Biden administration and plans to use its  dominance on committees and subpoena power to persecute the President and his family:

Hunter Biden > Republican James Comer, who will be the Chair of the House Oversight Committee, will focus on Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden claiming that his relationship with foreign partners has compromised the President.

Of course, these personal ‘investigations’ are just retaliation for the voluminous Trump crime investigations and will lead to little of substance, but will play well to the Freedom Caucus base.

Attorney General Merrick Garland, The Department of Justice and FBI > Republican Jim Jordan is expected to  Chair the House Judiciary Committee, and has already demanded numerous documents to undermine the numerous Trump investigations.  This is just a disguise as Jordan requested a pardon from Trump (for his coup activities?) before Trump left office.

Mexican Border > The Republican House Judiciary Committee will subpoena Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas about the border crises.

Afghanistan Withdrawal > Republicans will institute investigations into the events surrounding this disaster.

Covid-19 origins > Republicans want to blame the epidemic on an engineered virus that was released from a Chinese laboratory. Orin in a Wuhan market are not acceptable for their propaganda machine.

From the Congressional Record, Vol. 169, No. 5, January 6, 2023, Page H44-48, at 0130 AM:

SWEARING IN OF SPEAKER

The Sergeant at Arms announced the Speaker-elect of the House of Representatives of the 118th Congress, who was escorted to the chair by the Committee of Escort.

Mr. JEFFRIES. Madam Clerk, Whip Clark, distinguished members of the House Democratic Caucus and the House Republican Conference, it is my high honor and distinct privilege to finally be able to welcome all of you to the 118th Congress.

Let me just begin by thanking my good friend Pete Aguilar for his very generous words of introduction and for placing my name into nomination a total of nine times. I thank my other colleagues from the Democratic Caucus for their generous words of nomination, as well: Jim Clyburn, Katherine Clark, Ted Lieu, Dean Phillips, Joe Neguse, and Veronica Escobar.

I thank my colleagues and my friends in the House Democratic Caucus for their perseverance, for their strength, for their friendship, for their unanimity of purpose, and for their unanimous support. I want to say that that showing of strength is not for any one particular individual. It will be a showing of strength throughout the 118th Congress, unanimity of purpose on behalf of the American people.

{time} 0100

Before I proceed any further, let me begin by acknowledging the distinguished gentlewoman from the great State of California, the iconic, the heroic, and the legendary Speaker Emerita, Nancy D’Alesandro Pelosi.

Speaker Emerita Pelosi will go down in history as the greatest Speakers of all time. Throughout her turn in Congress, she has been a legendary legislator, a fabulous facilitator, and a no-nonsense negotiator. We know that Nancy Pelosi is a woman of faith, a loving wife, a mother of five, a grandmother of nine, a defender of democracy, a voice for the voiceless, and a powerful champion for the children, the climate, California, Charm City, the Caucus, the Congress, the country, and the Constitution.

I thank the Speaker Emerita for all that she has done. It is an honor to stand on her broad shoulders as well as the shoulders of the great Steny Hoyer and the great Jim Clyburn, two consequential leaders in their own right.

The Scripture says in Galatians: “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”

Over the last 2 years, House Democrats, in partnership with President Biden and our colleagues in the Senate, have been hard at work on behalf of the American people getting big things done. We passed the American Rescue Plan, saved the economy from a deep recession, put shots in arms, money in pockets, and kids back in school. We passed the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to create millions of good-paying jobs, fix our crumbling bridges, roads, tunnels, our airports, our sewer and water systems, our mass transportation systems, and ensured high-speed internet access in every single community.

We passed gun safety legislation for the first time in 30 years that will save lives and make our communities safer.

We passed the CHIPS and Science Act to bring domestic manufacturing jobs back home to the United States of America and ensure that our workforce has the skills to succeed in the 21st century economy.

We passed the Inflation Reduction Act to strike a dramatic blow against the climate crisis, set our planet on a sustainable trajectory forward, lower energy costs, strengthen the Affordable Care Act, lower healthcare costs, and drive down the high price of lifesaving prescription drugs for millions of Americans.

It was one of the most consequential Congresses in American history. President Biden gets the job done, and the D in Democrat stands for deliver. So over the next 2 years, as we begin this 118th Congress, let us continue to fight for lower costs, let us continue to fight in this Congress for better-paying jobs, let us continue to fight in this Congress for safer communities, let us continue to fight in this Congress to defend democracy, let us continue to fight in this Congress to protect the public interests, let us continue to fight in this Congress for economic opportunity in every single ZIP Code, and let us continue to fight in this Congress for reproductive freedom because as Democrats, we do believe in a country for everyone, a country that provides for the poor, works for working

[Page H46]

families, makes sense for the middle class, stands up for senior citizens, innovates in the inner city, strengthens suburban communities, helps out the heartland, and revitalizes rural America. We believe in a country with liberty and justice for all, equal protection under the law, and free and fair elections. Yes, we believe in a country with the peaceful transfer of power. We believe that in America, our diversity is a strength, it is not a weakness. It is an economic strength, a competitive strength, and a cultural strength. Our diversity is a strength. It is not a weakness.

We are a gorgeous mosaic of people from throughout the world. As John Lewis would sometimes remind us on this floor: We may have come over on different ships, but we are all in the same boat now.
We are White, we are Black, we are Latino, we are Asian, we are Native American, we are Christian, we are Jewish, we are Muslim, we are Hindu, we are religious, we are secular, we are gay, we are straight,
we are young, we are older, we are women, we are men, we are citizens, and we are Dreamers. Out of many we are one. That is what makes America a great country. And no matter what kind of haters are trying to divide us, we are not going to let anyone take that away from us–not now, not
ever.

This is the United States of America, a land of opportunity. The fact that I am able to stand up here today is another data point in that narrative. I was born in a Brooklyn Hospital, raised in a working-class
neighborhood in Crown Heights, grew up in the Cornerstone Baptist Church, and started off in the Cradle Roll Department. Somehow I survived the violence of the crack cocaine epidemic and wound up here in the United States Congress as the highest ranking Democrat in the House of Representatives.
America is truly a land of opportunity, a government of the people, by the people, and for the people.

So on this first day, let us commit to the American Dream, a dream that promises that if you work hard and play by the rules, then you should be able to provide a comfortable living for yourself and for
your family, educate your children, purchase a home, and one day retire with grace and dignity.
Let us commit on this first day to lift up the American Dream for every single person in this Nation.
I recognize that this is a moment of transition as we transition from one Congress to the next, from one majority to the next, from a year of accomplishment to a year of ambiguity, a moment of transition. The American people, understandably after the events of this week, recognize that the Congress is at a fork in the road.

I ask the question: What direction will we choose?

{time} 0110

On this first day, I do not pretend to answer that question on behalf of my colleagues on the other side of the aisle, but we do extend our hand of partnership to you and want to make clear that we extend and intend to try to find common ground whenever and wherever possible on behalf of the American people. Not as Democrats, not as Republicans, not as Independents, but as Americans.

But I also want to make clear that we will never compromise our principles. House Democrats will always put American values over autocracy, benevolence over bigotry, the Constitution over the cult,
democracy over demagogues, economic opportunity over extremism, freedom over fascism, governing over gaslighting, hopefulness over hatred, inclusion over isolation, justice over judicial overreach, knowledge over kangaroo courts, liberty over limitation, maturity over Mar-a-Lago, normalcy over negativity, opportunity over obstruction, people over politics, quality-of-life issues over QAnon, reason over racism, substance over slander, triumph over tyranny, understanding over ugliness, voting rights over voter suppression, working families over the well-connected, xenial over xenophobia, “yes, we can” over “you can’t do it,” and zealous representation over zero-sum confrontation.

We will always do the right thing by the American people, so let us not grow weary of doing good, for the American people will reap the benefit of the harvest if we do not give up.

God bless you, God bless the House, and God bless the United States of America.

It is now my solemn responsibility to hand over the people’s gavel to a son of Bakersfield, a former small business owner, a proud product of a firefighter’s household, the gentleman from the great State of California, and the next Speaker of the 118th Congress, Kevin McCarthy.

Mr. McCARTHY. That was easy, huh? I never thought we would get up here.

Thank you, Minority Leader Jeffries. Hakeem, I have got to warn you, 2 years ago, I got 100 percent of the vote from my Conference.

There is somebody else I want to thank, the gentlewoman who served as our presiding officer this week, our clerk, Cheryl Johnson. Thank you.

My father always told me, it is not how you start, it is how you finish. And now we need to finish strong for the American people. If the son of a fireman and the grandchild of immigrants can rise to
the highest position in the most important legislative body in our country, and if my colleague, Hakeem Jeffries, with his life story, can rise to lead his party, then opportunity and democracy still thrive in
America.

To Leader Jeffries, there will be times we agree, and many times we will differ. I promise our debates will be passionate, but they will never be personal. That is my commitment to you.
And now the hard work begins. What we do here today, next week, next month, next year will set the tone for everything that follows. Tonight, I want to talk directly to the American people. As Speaker
of the House, my ultimate responsibility is not to my party, my Conference, or even our Congress. My responsibility, our responsibility, is to our country. Two months ago, you voted for a new
direction for our country. You embraced our Commitment to America, and now we are going to keep our commitment to you.

It is a commitment for an economy that is strong, where you can fill up your tank of gas and feed your family, where paychecks grow and not shrink. It is a commitment for a Nation that is safe, where communities are protected, law enforcement is respected, and criminals are prosecuted; a commitment for the future that is built on freedom, where children come first and are taught to dream big because in America, dreams can still come true; a commitment for a government that is held
accountable, where Americans get the answers they want, need, and deserve.

Our system was built on checks and balances. It is time for us to be a check and provide some balance to the President’s policies. There is nothing more important than making it possible for American
families to live and enjoy the lives they deserve. That is why we commit to stop wasteful Washington spending, to lower the price of groceries, gas, cars, housing, and stop the rising national debt.

{time} 0120

We pledge to cut the regulatory burden, lower energy costs for families, and create good-paying jobs for workers by unleashing reliable, abundant, American-made energy. I know the night is late but when we come back, our very first bill will repeal the funding for 87,000 IRS agents. You see, we believe
government should be here to help you, not go after you. We are going to pass bills to fix the Nation’s urgent challenges, from the wide-open southern border to America-last energy policies to
woke indoctrination in our schools. We will also address America’s long-term challenges: the debt and the rise of the Chinese Communist Party. Congress must speak with one voice on both of these issues.
That is why we will end wasteful Washington spending. From now on, if a Federal bureaucrat wants to spend it, they will come before this institution to defend it.

As for the Chinese Communist Party, we will create a select committee on China to investigate how to bring back the hundreds of thousands of jobs that went to China, and then we will win this economic
competition.

Now, speaking of committees, we will hold the swamp accountable–from the

[[Page H47]]

withdrawal from Afghanistan to the origins of COVID to the weaponization of the FBI. Let me be very clear. We will use the power of the purse and the power of the subpoena to get the job done.
This is something we should all agree upon. We will stand up and speak out for the backbone of our economy: the hardworking taxpayers. It is nighttime here in Washington but in some ways, it is also like
a new beginning, a fresh start.

My friends, this Chamber is now fully open for all Americans to visit. I want to give all Americans a personal invitation: You are welcome to see this body at work. No longer will the doors be closed, but the debates will be open for you to witness what happens in the people’s House. From the committee rooms to this floor, we commit to pursue the truth passionately and embrace debate. No more one-sided inquiries. Competing ideas will be put to the test in public so that the best ideas win. We also pledge to bring Congress to the people because answers have not and will not always be found in Washington. That is why one of our very first hearings will be held at the southern border. No more ignoring this crisis of safety and sovereignty. We must secure our border. We must get America back on track. Now, on a personal note to my family here and at home: my wife, Judy; my children, Meghan, Connor, and Emily; my brother, Marc; Monica and Zac; and, yes, my mom, Bert, I am where I am because you are who you are. I would also like to thank my constituents in California’s Central Valley, and yes, especially my hometown of Bakersfield. I don’t know if you are familiar with music but as Buck Owens sings: “How many of you that sit and judge me have ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?” Well, I have walked those streets my entire life. I know its people. They are hardworking and relentlessly optimistic about our future, and I am very honored to have the opportunity to represent them in Congress. As a son of a firefighter, I saw firsthand how hard work, leadership, and service to others can change people’s lives. That is exactly why we are here today: to serve you, the people. We come here with the support of our families and the faith of our neighbors to be their voice in Washington. For all the wives and husbands, children and parents who are watching a loved one be sworn in–I know it took a couple extra days. I will be honest, that is not how I had it planned–I want you to remember this moment. Take it in. Your loved ones are about to become a part of history. My colleagues and I thank you for your understanding and your sacrifice. We will work every day to make you proud. My most favorite spot in this building is not in this Chamber. It is in the Chamber they met before, in Statuary Hall. It is my favorite place to take people on a tour. It is where Abraham Lincoln served. He
was just a one-term Congressman; sat in the back. I like to go in that
spot and stand where he stood. I like to do it at night when people
aren’t around. I like to look over and look at the clock because that
is the same clock and same view that Abraham Lincoln saw.
I have watched Lincoln serve in the greatest challenge to our
Constitution, the Civil War. I watched him take people who were rivals
and put them together. I watched at a time when he did not know if the
Nation could sustain itself, but he dreamt of a future and built a
railroad across the Nation.
I want us to all take a moment one time that you are here; I want you
to stand there. I want you to look, and I want you to think: If America
could do it then, we can do it now. One more time.

{time} 0130

Abe Lincoln gave his life in service to this country. One of his most
important observations about America applies today as much as it did
160 years ago. He said: “We are striving to maintain the government
and institutions of our fathers . . . and transmit them to our children
and our children’s children forever.” My fellow Americans, that is
still our mission today.
This moment calls for restoring trust within our country and with
each other. In that spirit, I will work with anyone and everyone who
shares our passion to deliver a better future for the Nation.
I hope you will join me. As a Congress, we can only operate if we
cooperate.
My door will be open. I would like you to come by. I want you to see,
as you walk down the hall, a large portrait of Lincoln. I want you to
go into that conference room, and I want you to see another portrait.
My Members know this. It is of Washington crossing the Delaware. We all
know the story. It happened on Christmas 1776. There was no iPhone to
take a picture.
People wonder when it was painted. It wasn’t painted by someone who
was there. It was painted in 1850 and 1851. He was an immigrant who
lived in America, Emanuel Leutze.
Do you know why he painted it? Because he knew America was more than
a country. America was an idea.
He went home to Germany, and he wanted Germany to have a revolution
based upon the values and freedoms that we defend every day. His talent
was art, so he believed if he painted this painting, he could inspire
his countrymen to rise up for the idea of freedom.
Many historians will tell you he didn’t get it correct. They will
tell you Washington crossed on a Durham boat, but he paints it with
Washington in a rowboat.
You see 13 people but only 12 faces. You see Washington standing up
in a rowboat in the middle of winter, wearing a ceremonial uniform with
his hand on his chest. He looks so stoic. You would look at that man
and you would say, “I would follow him anywhere.” You proudly believe
that he never lost a battle.
But history would tell us, at that moment, at that time, he had only
lost. We had never won. You see, that was the night of our first
victory as a nation, when we surprised the Hessians.
When you look at that painting, don’t look at Washington. I want you
to look at who is in the boat. You see the second rower in the beret;
he is Scottish. The person directly across from him in the green,
rowing in the exact same cadence, is an African American. You come down
right to the middle in the red. The person who is rowing the strongest
is a woman, and in the very back is a Native American.
I don’t know from a historic fact if they were in the boat that
night, but to this young immigrant who had lived in America, that is
who he believed would be in the boat.
The second-to-last person is a farmer. He could be from Bakersfield.
I am not sure. His hand goes across his face. People will debate this
part, but what I see is the hand of the 13th person nobody sees. You
see, what I believe Emanuel was saying is: Here we are, battling for
the creation of the idea of freedom, that every individual is equal,
not a perfect nation but striving to be a more perfect union, having
lost every battle against the greatest challenge with the strongest
nation, having lost them all but willing to do it on our holiest of
nights with a hand reached out and asking if you would join us.
That is as true today as it was then. If we let everybody in the
boat, if we row in the same cadence together, there is no obstacle this
body can’t overcome for this Nation. It is time for us to be the voice
and worthy of their vote.
Let me close with this. I may not know all of you–some of you are
new–but I hope one thing is clear after this week: I never give up.
I make this promise: I will never give up for you, the American
people, and I will never give up on keeping our commitment to America.
Our Nation is worth fighting for. Our rights are worth fighting for.
Our dreams are worth fighting for. Our future is worth fighting for.
Therefore, with love for this country and charity for each other, let
us now take our oath and be worthy of the office which we are about to
enter.
God bless everybody in this Chamber, and God bless America.
Not so fast. I have to get sworn in first. Sit down.
I am now ready to take the oath of office.
I ask the dean of the House, the Honorable Hal Rogers of Kentucky,
one of my first mentors, to administer the oath of the office.
Mr. ROGERS of Kentucky. First, we want to offer a bipartisan
congratulations to the gentleman from California.
