The answer may surprise you.

Without a functional House, we can only lose stars.

you raise a fantastically interesting point. what can we do to chase TX and FL from the flag while Congress can't intervene?

Replace them by conferring statehood on Puerto Rico and tbe District of Columbia.

50?

we need this kind of optimism

So you agree with my guess? I honestly had no clue if the US would have changed their flag design with their stars. At the end of the day, I want Hakeem Jeffries to be house speaker so he can deliver stability

they won't find eight Republicans to support a Dem Speaker, but i think the Dems would unite for a rational Republican if one could be found.

Like which Republican would be rational? They're either alt-right or they're basic fascists, or a weak neoconservative

well there are 222 Republican reps, but the Speaker doesn't have to be an elected member of the House. there are literally millions to choose from.

Mitt Romney. Republicans hate him. 😄
