For the first time in 2 decades, no woman will lead a House committee.

[Swede]

From the reddit thread: There isn’t a single bloke there I would take an opened drink from.

1. No women.....

Blacks, Asians, Hispanics, or even Eskimos.
I had to put on sunglasses when I opened this thread.

[jimfields33]

7. Did they run for the position?

But someone needs to run to win these things.

[newdeal2]

2. Is the black square bottom right corner what they call diversity?

[magicarpet]

15. That black square is that porn site guy who called himsrlf the "Black Nazi".

From South Carolina I believe,... Mad Man Mark Robinson. He is kinda controversial so he likes to go incognito, the reason for the black box.

3. Republican's don't care about this and unfortunately, millions of Americans don't either.

[CrispyQ]

31. I have a male relative who has multiple granddaughters, one grandson & he voted for this.

He said abortion is legal in his state so he's not worried. I said that may not hold & besides, is it fair that your granddaughters are now limited to what states they can safely live in but your grandson is not? Crickets. But I'm sure he still believes he's an ally to women.

35. A co-worker called the Republican Party, the party of Me. I think it perfectly describes them.

4. Not surprised

considering this gang of magats.

[Irish_Dem]

5. Americans voted for white male minority rule.

And that is what we shall see.

[atreides1]

6. Republican women...

Are always happy with the scraps that fall from the table. They enjoy being the Quislings to their gender, so they can get those scraps!!!

[magicarpet]

12. Speaker Johnson says women do not belong on Capitol Hill.

Give them a chocolate chip cookie recipe and send them home to bake for their families.

Oh,... and take away their shoes so they don't escape the home anymore.

[BattleRow]

13. Is foot hobbling on the Project 2025 agenda?

[Bernardo de La Paz]

17. Foot binding is scheduled for Project 2029 (Vance)

[BattleRow]

24. Can burkas be far behind?

[Hope22]

28. Nope! nt

[BattleRow]

41. Not to be unkind,but in some cases,it could be an improvement .I'm thinking some expired date Magettes.

[rubbersole]

36. They wouldn't have to go home if they just go to the lunchroom and make sammiches...

[magicarpet]

40. Why can't the US Congresswomen bring a nice cold beer to the Congressmen

.... on a sterling silver tray during lunch break ? They are being paid,... shouldn't the ladies be doing a women centric type job at the US Capitol ?

How about clothes laundry, vacuuming of carpets, scrubbing floors, and cleaning toilets and wash rooms - plenty of chores and jobs at the Capitol Building
for Congresswomen to keep them busy.

Eloon Musk & Vivek Ratsforbrainsswamy should be notified of potential cost savings that could be found if congresswomen multi-tasked at the Capitol and picked up some of the womanly janitorial load to keep things pretty and orderly - along with their regular jobls and salary.

If they have any extra time the congresswoman could bake some chocolate chip cookies for the congressmen and then spit shine their shoes and mend their loose buttons on the men's clothing.

It is so nice to have a woman around serving the needs of men... provided she does not get all uppity and mouthy.

[yorkster]

8. And "also too", the incoming President is

a convicted felon and a seditious thug.
An ugly to his core white male.

Oh, what we could have had...

[FalloutShelter]

27. Let's not forget he's also a rapist.

WTF? I just can't.

[City Lights]

9. The GOP despises women.

We are to be seen and not heard.

[Lucky Luciano]

10. Talk about identity politics!

Republicans need to be called out for their identity politics too.

[Johonny]

11. Making America For Wealthy White Males Again

They already floated getting rid of women suffrage. Slavery will be next. These people don't give a shit about their voters. And their voters don't seem to care. Conservatism is a mental illness.

[moondust]

14. Wow. So diverse.

There's red ties and blue ties and a green tie and some baldies and maybe a couple redheads and some brownheads and a whitetop and...

[republianmushroom]

18. One step forward, three steps back, the republican waltz. Jesus !

[paleotn]

19. Only thing surprising is it took them this long to show who they really are.

Not like they haven't controlled the House several times over the last 20 years.

[jayschool2013]

20. The Rohypnol Caucus

Looks about white.

[ms liberty]

21. They took Virginia Foxx out of a leadership position

That says something. She's been in leadership for a while, and has a pretty good sized war chest due to never being effectively opposed (her district covers three major media markets and also, gerrymandering).

[Vinca]

22. Well, duh, barefoot, pregnant and in the kitchen is the GOP goal.

[iluvtennis]

23. This is the Amerika that MAGA wants - white men in control of everything. n/t

[BattleRow]

25. Hitler,Mussolini and Stalin were all white men,btw

[kimbutgar]

26. Why do they all have punchable looking faces?

If I saw them on the street I would think they are a holes!

[orleans]

29. that's b/c women don't belong in politics, they shouldn't vote, they need to spend more time at home cooking up

delicious dinners like their grandma used to do, then die in hospital parking lots when their pregnancies take a bad turn

39. Barf. I hate these useless lumps of lard.

[CrispyQ]

32. Uptighty whities, I called them in another thread.

It's tragic that one of our major parties now embraces the absolute worst of human attributes. Their leader doesn't have one redeeming quality, not a fucking one. Other dictators at least like dogs or love their children but not Trump. It's all Trump, always Trump, & Trump only. He's so deficient in every fucking way.

[4th]

33. Back to ... ahem ...

... "normal". Right?

[Bo Zarts]

34. White bread. Stale-male, oldie-moldy white bread.

[dlk]

37. What else could be expected from the reactionary, women-haters party?

These are scared and emotionally stunted , little men, who think sharing sharing somehow diminishes them, and are supremely unqualified to lead.

[love_katz]

38. And, again, Facebook won't let me share this post.

Gee. I wonder why?!?
