A late-night meeting in House Speaker Mike Johnson’s office went off the rails Tuesday, with multiple sources describing the session as the most contentious this year. Among those summoned were the top leaders of the five ideological caucuses, known as the “five families,”The speaker wanted a bill to suspend the gas tax through the election, an effort spearheaded by House Freedom Caucus Chair Andy Harris (R-Maryland).The meeting quickly devolved into chaos, according to five sources in the room and another briefed on the meeting.Rep. Sam Graves (R-Missouri), chair of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, brought in a printed post on X from 2022 in which Harris criticized Joe Biden’s efforts to suspend the gas tax.Graves, who sits on a committee of jurisdiction for the gas tax, was opposed to the bill being moved to the floor outside of regular order and cited Harris’ previous comments.Harris got livid and began banging the desk, yelling, “This is fucking war! This is war!” according to sources in the room.He was starting to storm out of the room when the speaker attempted to stop him by telling him to stay and “talk this out.”Rep. Clay Higgins (R-Louisiana), an ally of Harris’, started to berate Graves.Higgins said. “You disrespectful fool!”He stormed out of the room along with Harris.The following day, Higgins took to X and fired another shot at Graves, saying in a post that Graves is an “Establishment elitist”“[Graves] just killed the Freedom Caucus bill that would have canceled the federal fuel tax for 3 months. Our intention was to bring the bill to the House floor tomorrow night. Man wants his taxes,” Higgins said. “And he was rude about it. Unbelievable. The swamp is fighting hard to come back.”https://www.washingtonsun.com/congress/house-republican-meeting-turns-into-shouting-match-speaker-johnson-andy-harris
If the people aren’t taxed on their gas, there won’t be enough money for Israel and data centers.

>>542769925How are Republicans going to pay for Israel's free universal health care if they suspend the gas tax?
i have a significant issue with members of our congress coming up with fun little mafia nicknames for themselves and their little committees
>It's happening!Source: A person familiar with.
>>542771853I guess the only way to defend this, is to deny it.
>>542769925Multiple sources confirm Rep Clay Higgins as pulling out his penis and angrily waving it replying>"Here your fucking gas pump, pump this fucking nozzle you son of a bitch" then storming out of the room as onlookers gasped
>>542769925>want to suspend gas taxOk I'm listening >only for 3 months so just for the upcoming election You fuckers deserve to lose
The federal government has a gas tax? The fuck, why does that even exist.
>>542771670By using the gibs you give niggers
>>542769925>printing tweets to rage bait in real lifeBased
>>542772479something about "muh roads"
>yfw the adults are back in charge
>>542772415And they can't even agree to it.
>>542769925Britain incubated the war in Ukraine, Europe pays for it. Trump tried to reason with them but they wouldn't listen. They scorned his efforts while relying on him keeping supplies flowing to them. They refused to help with the problem of Iran and the issue has dragged on as a result.Suspend US & Venezuelan exports to Europe and Britain. Their retarded leaders will figure it out eventually.
>>542770074This/threadAlso recording of the sessoon or it didnt happen
>>542772415The only until election part lost me.
>>542773894see>>542772046
>>542772479Simply to make you miserable and for no other reason. They hate you and want you dead
>>542772479We need that money for Israel!
>>542773028>>542772415If they had a single iota of thought they would have suspended it back in march for at least 2 years.
>>542769925Missouri is in the middle of the country and has a massive volume of trucks running across its interstates. They are in terrible shape, constanly under construction, and have very sparse crews working despite significant lane closures and reduced speeds. It is obvious this perpetual constuction zone is a big money grab and Grave's donors don't want their shovel learning cash cow to take a break. Meanwhile the roads are so bad, when you drive accross them in a semi, the pounding in the cab is so violent that you are afraid you will blow a steer tire or damage a steering link. It is that bad. This comes to you from a new truck driver with 30 year of auto and heavy equipment manufacturing experience. I know what our industry does to test vehicles and MS interstates and construction is the upper limit of what a class 8 tractor should be asked to withstand. These interstates were designed as part of the nations ability to move everything needed for defense, food, materials, machines and we are not keeping them is in adequate condition. We need to end support for Isreal and Ukraine and fix our fucking infrastucture. Highways, ports, airports, rails, are 60 years old.
>>542773324>Suspend US & Venezuelan exports to Europe and Britain. Their retarded leaders will figure it out eventually.They won't. European leaders and 70% of the continent is feminized mentally. They will make a big show, sign 50 letters, talk about how they have a crowd of children who disapprove of Trump and he should feel bad and never understandn o one cares about any of that shit.Ironically as gay as he is, Rob Ford in ontario is the only canadian with balls who could hypothetically inject a little masculinity into their gay society but since the Tories are associated with Trumo they'll keep voting for gay and fake politicians like trudeau and carney and then wonder why the US is dismissive to them when run by democrats and actively bullying them when run by republicans.
>>542775278But the special Iran excursion was supposed to be over very quickly, Trump would seize their oil, and Venezuela would send massive amounts of oil to US refineries. No need, you see?
>>542769925>would have canceled the federal fuel tax >for 3 months
>>542775334Good luck with that. Don't forget to vote GOP again this November!
>>542773324>Trump tried to reason with them but they wouldn't listen.>pretending the pro-Israel and pro-Ukraine factions are 2 different factions
>>542775708
>>542775708>pretending the pro-Israel and pro-Ukraine factions are 2 different factionsThey are Zion Don has been trying to get Ukraine to surrender before he was even on office so the US can solely focus on defending Israel
>>542775334LOL, never going to happen. Enjoy the slow collapse.
>>542775741
>>542775334Interstates 70 and 80, including the bridges for the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers need to be the best America can build. When you look at the way the Autobahn in made, with a better footing, you get the idea on how that section of our nation's highways needs to be. We are so much bigger than Germany so we cannot do it everywhere put in certain places we need to make the investment in roads that can support 80,000lb truck traffic. It is 2026 and we cannot have 1950s highways, we need modern highways, and gas taxes make the user pay for it. We sure don't do that for defense, some of that defense budget should be allocated to highway modernization.
>>542775657It would be based, I wouldn’t complain. 3 months is better than nothing
>>542775640Yeah so in hindsight anyone telling you a war will be over by st. patrick's day if started on the last day of february is retarded and they probably should have had contingencies.Relying on protestors who were already in prison, Kurds who didn't want to start an invasion and the Azeri government was also a very retarded mistake that doesn't make sense.
>>542775860Too bad DOGE gutted all federal infrastructure spending already allocated, and Trump cancelled even more.
>>542775334>Highways, ports, airports, rails, are 60 years old.>very few crewsBoomers want the system to last for another 20 years and then they croak. Nothing is fixed and they won't let it be fixed, because this would create a hunge number of jobs for zoomers and millennials and stop the collapse of society. Remove all boomers from power and it will finally end.
>>542771757Yeah this was my first reaction too. The five families the four horsemen the three princes the two kings the one God all of this anime bullshit needs to go along with all of the people that came up with them
>>542773324Wow a German with non gay perspectives for once
>>542770422These are all angloid surnames, can’t blame the jews for this one
>>542775939It's clearly a ploy to help the Miggers win the midterms. Good for the guy that killed it
>>542772505Sorry, I live in the north, not in the jungle with jungle animals like you.
>>542769925The GOP is a bunch of closeted gay pedo rapists who should kill themselves. Their israeli handlers should also kill themselves. There is nothing else you need to know.
>>542769925It isnt a war tho is a 2 week special military operation.
>>542776327>These are all angloid surnamesWe have noticed.I officially give up on white politicians. I don't care anymore. Accelerate
National Gas tax isnt going to help.You need to stop attacking these idiots. Impeach, convict, remove Trump and his cronies.
>>542772046Ask for proof>deny = defenseWhy are you pretending to not understand
>>542769925Quickly, get back on Fox News and smugly blame men playing video games!
>>542769925So Iran helped lower taxes and you still want them destroyed?I say have a parade parade down time square for them.
>>542775507was he the fat dude who openly snorts cocaine off hookers and straight-up admitting to it just mad him more popular? that fat bastard is pretty cool, for a leaf
>>542771670By ending social security and kicking your granny out of the nursing home and having you take care her.
>>542776794>Why are you pretending to not understandHe said the line! The pretending not to understand tweet!
>>542775640>>542776035I don't know why anybody still believes lies about quick easy wars, they never ever happen. It's literally "just the tip" logic, if you allow the tip you're always going to end up getting the full pipe and a sore anus.
>>542775334>>542776122This. Building good infrastructure means delaying gratification today for benefits tomorrow, "planting a tree you'll never sit in the shade of." Boomers have intentionally not done this. They have fixed infrastructure that would break before they all croak in 2035 and skipped working on infrastructure that will last at least that long, since they wouldn't get a strong benefit out of such an investment.Can't take it with you!
>>542769925>The meeting quickly devolved into chaos, according to five sources in the room and another briefed on the meeting.five different sources ran straight to the press the exact same evening to leak a closed door meeting. these guys scream about the establishment and then immediately act as informants for the media just to fracture their own party over a gas tax stunt. calling them traitors is an understatement. they are glowing third party assets sabotaging the base from the inside
>>542778286If you think what boomers did was bad, millennials thought the common cold was going to kill them so supported the complete destruction of the entire global economy.
>>542776327>What even is AIPAC?Who could be behind this post...?
>>542778809>What even is AIPACjews and christian american citizens, aka the founders of the US. they counter foregin influence like qatar. are you simping for ayatollas?
>>542778809Still, an angloid took the 30 pieces of silver. They could have grown a spine like Massie and said fuck your shekels.
>>542776580Cool it with the antisemitic remarks
>>542776105Too much pork, not enough strategic investment. I do not care about a bridge in Mitch McConnells do nothing district. That is exactly what he traded for his vote to pass obamacare in the middle of the night on Christmas. I am taking about strategically important roads and rails, not make work jobs
>>542782640You get what you deserve.
I feel like our country is run like Brewster's Millions where the politicians bet how much they can fuck us over
>>542776035Are you kidding me? General after general after general has war gamed the Iran battle for 40 years, they all said the same thing, dont. We have the best military colleges in the world where they study these questions. They all said don't do this. They study capacity, leadership, terrain, global position, economics, outcomes. They study their own mistakes. It's very good. Read the white papers. We told Isreal not to do what they did and they did it anyway, our military predicted that failure. That being said they need wars to train and keep a pipeline of talent and material, so sometimes they order a war the country does not need but not a war the country cannot win. Trump has let himself get bullied into wars that are not worth winning.
>>542769925Least corrupt and petulant Louisiana politicians
>>542776327Oh, not even going to look at the AIPAC for them, I don't have to. Jews are behind every problem.
>>542775334Yeah, Republican state govs are skinflints like this outside of like TX lmao.
>>542769925just get some gas from leafs, oh I forgot, they are taken now
The national gas tax is a sin tax. It just fucks over the people.
>>542772479>The federal government has a gas tax? The fuck, why does that even exist.To fuck you over. The same reason there's a payroll tax on top of the income tax.
>>542780121They didn't. You expect them to have principles. You can only make sure they lose. That's how you handle it. Don't vote.
>>542782726SO do you.
>>542783432There is one party. Them. They have no ideological North Star. Left, Right, Black, White, Up,Down, North, South. They only look to keep their seat and fleece the nation.
>>542770074fippybippy
>>542769925Problem is without a cap on gas prices they'll just rise the price to present levels without the tax. Price controls are needed and prosecutions for gouging.
>>542770422Harris isn't a woman if colors name? You just might be the stupidest fucking person on this website my fella
THIS IS FUCKING WAR! THIS IS WAR!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRJ2V2lUb5Q
>>542769925Isn't the worst choice imaginable be easing consumer incentives, during a gasoline shortage?Imagine if there's a famine, and the government orders it's citizens to keep eating the same amount as if nothing is happening.
