Truly the most important thing the interim House speaker should be focusing on right now - petty bullshit while someone is mourning a colleague. /s

What part of that sentence do you not understand? It means that he has all authorities of the Speaker to the end of electing a new Speaker. Nothing else. Are you an idiot?

It’s not really a moot point. He’s attempting to exercise power he doesn’t actually have, and as far as I know Pelosi hasn’t actually vacated yet because his power got checked by McGovern.

Someone like yourself complaining about whining is hilarious, you’re probably bitching about Pelosi all the time. And so mad that Trump is on trial for things he did.

Go sit your dumb ass down.

edit:

You may also want to go back and check the context and your claim overall, because in the second screenshot, he first quotes the “necessary and appropriate” portion from the new rules, and then says that such power was narrowly defined in a previous session, and provides a image of that text.

So he quoted both the relevant portion of the new rule, and provided the narrowly defining text when it was first introduced.
