“The House Freedom Caucus gives a voice to countless Americans who feel that Washington does not represent them,”

Seeing as how those who feel unrepresented are in that predicament because they are in the minority, they shall remain perpetually unrepresented. I have no doubt that every moon barker in every extremist organization feels "unrepresented" and I hope it stays that way.

They are the Sharia Caucus, last on their mind is freedom. They also seem to be underrepresented by women.

Call me naïve but I'm a little amazed at the sheer chaos and bloodletting being committed today in the GOP. Will the establishment conservatives even survive? This implosion is bad for the country and our reputation worldwide.

It was bound to occur at some time. The establishment wing represents big business and the Tea Party wing represents the racists, religious zealots, homophobes and gun nuts the Establishment has been recruiting for the past 50 years and maintaining on a diet of talk radio and Fox News. The inmates now want to take over control of the asylum.

It is also the manifest frustration set against the euphoria of the Mid Term election.

I need a bourbon and some popcorn for this mutiny.

These fecking crazies are going to do some lasting harm to the economy before they're done. I hope the sane Repubs start tossing 'em into a woodchipper posthaste.
