Curtin University Political Analyst Professor Joe Siracusa says Americans have pretty much “given up” on Congress.
Professor Siracusa’s remarks come after Republican Senator Kevin McCarthy was finally voted in as Speaker of the US House of Representatives.
“Research shows that about 80 per cent of Americans don’t expect Congress to do the right thing, so Congress could have been there all you know until the cows come home counting votes,” he told Sky News Australia.
“Americans didn’t expect much from them.
“Congress is going to have to prove itself.”

He went there to see if he can make some corrupt back door money
Your commentator is a joke.
There is nothing more important than a criminal justice system that is without political bias and the American justice system is a joke!
" 10 percent for the big guy to be held by H"
Russian misinformation says 50 high ranking intelligence officers. Seriously? Where is the special prosecutor on that piece of 5hit?
Of course we did… That's why 20 or so politicians fought for hours and received concessions to see changes that the American people want. That's totally giving up…
The speaker vote was Democracy in action. Messy to see but at least it was not behind closed doors. It gave me hope.
The American system of government is based on the idea that government was to be limited, with very clearly defined areas of authority. The separate Houses of Congress and the Administration was supposed to constitute checks and balances against any one institution gaining too much power.
The fight of the Speaker of the House is exactly how a vital and responsive political process is suppose to Work!
Not a "smoke-filled" back room deal!
I hope the rest of the world understands many Americans donor agree with open border welcoming every person into this country, there have to be SOME limits!
In order to survive as a nation….Biden needs to resign inmmediately and let Trump handle it things. Trump economy was a 200% success.
You are almost correct….
The American people hate the government.
Traitor Joe won't even know why he's there. Puppet Head!!!
Given up? The new session starts in 12 hours ~let ‘em start first.
& update the thumbnail, Joe says Covid’s over
He only went there to tell the Coyotes that the big guy wants his 10% fee from every illegal that crosses.
Bidens trip is just theater This installed puppet doesn't work for the USA. He is China owned
This clown Siracusa peddling the same establishment line "you have to raise the debt ceiling in July" NO They do not have to raise the Debt ceiling!!!
Boy, if it wasn't for Trump building that wall there would be a real problem at the border.
Did he take his Border Zar, vice president with him ?
Trump 2024
WATCH "OAT" Young female's Joe's GOWWIN on A sniffin AND TOUCHING sessions 🤮 RUN BABY RUN 🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🤮🤣
This guest is clueless on the Speaker of the House vote. The concessions weren't insignificant. The changes moved more centralized power from the Speaker back to the members than they've had in DECADES.
What you didn't see what was going on behind the scenes. Everyone played their parts beautifully and "rolled" McCarthy. He really didn't have a choice.
Yes, McCarthy's not ideal but if he goes back on his word he can be removed due to the concessions he made. If he's smart he won't fight the 20 Freedom Caucus members.
The guest is obviously biased against the Freedom Caucus which you can tell by his use of "MAGA" Republicans as if it's a slur. The proper term is "UltraMAGA"!!! Seriously, there is so much corruption of most Republicans In Nane Only or "RINO" members of congress by corporate donors and other big money that cause the members to vote against the interests of the US and the citizens and we are tired of it. We're sick of 4000 page bills that most members only see hours before a Yes/No vote with no opportunity to add amendments or vote against specific parts.
Left wing propaganda
Soap Opera at it finest
Worry about Australia
Right wing Propaganda
To late to little.
Given up on our Gov doing anything for the people. If the elections even counted anymore, they'd all be voted out
Biden has only made it worse. He has the least amount of support of any president in history. He is scared that he waited so long to act like he’s going to do something.
a long time ago
No we haven't given up on congress, I've got high hopes for it.
The concessions that McCarthy made were NOT SUPERFICIAL! They will be extremely important in seeking JUSTICE for all of the CRIMINALITY that the DEMOCRATS and their establishment Republican LAP DOGS have committed. If the MAGA Republicans hadn't fought so hard to get these concessions, we would never get to the bottom of what actually happened on January 6th or any of the other criminal, choreographed TREASON that the establishment has committed. Don't be fooled, McCarthy is NOT a "Republican". He's just another part of the UNI-PARTY. With the exception of the MAGA Republicans, it doesn't matter if they call themselves Democrats or Republicans they are ALL ON THE SAME SIDE. That is the side that is for the political elite and AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Not true…..This is how it always should be.
Y'all know that Russia is moving weapons into Mexico… Right?
Destroy the Left.
We gave up on that rich corrupt no good Republican party I guess will vote for Democrats at least they’re destroying the country and they’re doing it fast maybe that way we can start all over again👍
Americans have no confidence in Congress (except Liberal Democrats) unless they realize they were thrown under the bus too.
Under former President Trump, the U.S. national debt rose by $8 trillion, following the third-largest primary deficit growth out of all U.S. presidents except for George W. Bush and Abraham Lincoln. Trump didn’t launch two foreign conflicts like Bush or pay for a civil war like Lincoln. Here i thought he was a successful business man. More like a successful shonk who fails at everything. How did that china deal go for our farmers? Anyone…anyone?………..
Um, I guess you'd have to be in America, not be an MSM swilling git, have some knowledge of how this process works, and be in your right mind to think otherwise.
The Republican congress has issued its first agenda. A proposal to make it harder for working families to get tax rebates and loopholes so it's easier for their donors to not pay tax.
This is always the way.
Will you hear it here? Of course not.
Lies, lies and more lies. There are a group of brave patriots who have shown that they (and we) will never give up on congress. Draining the swamp.
This guest continuously reads from the Fauci play book…media hoR.
We do expect much from congress , really both houses , regular America’s are watching closer now then ever … we now have woke on both sides good for us…. We need less war planning and more stoping war.
Deranged Far-Left Control The US.
Biden's Admin protected by (The Deep State) DOJ, FBI, CIA, Big Tech. etc…
