   All we need is one public hanging, and then people will start acting right -- kind of like it would be useful if we still had the firing squad for the death penalty, we shall see if there will be a public hanging in our future because it is still considered a valid form of death for treason.

   I do worry about a conservative circular firing squad. All that does is play into the hands of the left, and give them the election victory by default that they're looking for.

3. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy:

So you're not voting for a $ 1.5 trillion infrastructure bill, you're voting for a $ 5 trillion bill, they will hold it unless it goes forward.

   We need to end the circular firing squad and get to work. Our biggest obstacle to success is members of our own Democratic Party, we have one or two senators holding up big ticket items that we need to pass.
