In my humble opinion, Patrick McHenry is the most logical solution to this circus. But what do I know.

probably. But if it gets to a bipartisan deal, what will matter is not the person but the rules package that comes with him. But McHenry works well enough.

I love it.   It's the same quality of bs rhey pedal about Biden but aimed at other Republicans 

[pfife]

Imagine your vote being so baseless that its impacted by a matt gates fundraising email. Lmao

[romad1]

11 and climbing

what the heck happened after they said Candace Miller's name? 

[mtutiger]

Losing John James here seems like a really big deal, the Jordan people were making a huge deal out of courting him.

I think James just voted for Candice Miller.

[mtutiger]

Haha Johnny B gets a vote!!!

And she'd be a good choice.

MMM for Kay Granger, who unironically would be a pretty good Speaker.

[gehringer_2]

lost two more. Will the fact that he's going backward mean the conference decides to go another was without more votes? We can only hope.

[ewsieg]

Didn't he miss out on 20 GOP votes in the first vote?   22 this time.  

 

[gehringer_2]

Jordan did turn 2 to his side, but lost 4 he had yesterday so the net is 2 more down.

I gotta believe that he'd probably lose a few more with another ballot if they went ahead and voted again.

Mike Lawler once again on CNN blaming Democrats for helping to create this mess.  He did it 3 times in his interview.

I didn't know it was their job to make sure a republican stays speaker.

I like how, a few days ago, Jordan and his allies were messaging that they needed to elect Jim Jordan to get back to the work of the American people. Yet, according to CNN just now, they are working to kill a resolution (empowering McHenry) that would actually accomplish that.

It's almost like it's not about functioning government and more about giving Jordan power.

This was from yesterday but still applies... one thing this Congress has proven is that the GOP cannot count votes to save its life lol

Jack Tapper: Its not Normal and frankly not that interesting.

Why is it never the Republicans fault for joining the dems and electing Jefferies?  Why do the dems have to join the R's?
