    "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. The only way they can inherit the freedom we have known is if we fight for it, protect it, defend it, and then hand it to them with the well fought lessons of how they in their lifetime must do the same. And if you and I don’t do this, then you and I may well spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it once was like in America when men were free."

    • @haydenschaffner2939
      @haydenschaffner2939 Před 7 měsíci

      Before McCarthy was voted in, several members on the republican side were holding up the vote because they knew McCarthy is a rhino who would squander the republicans soft majority if voted in. McCarthy struck a deal with those members in order for them to stop delaying the vote. Part of that agreement was that they would move to vacate if he broke the agreement, which he has done several times.
