@michael Posted January 3, 2023 Posted January 3, 2023 Rejected yet again as he was in 2015. He must feel like he’s wasted all of these years waiting for another opportunity just to be embarrassed on the national stage again.
VOSS Posted January 3, 2023 Posted January 3, 2023 Who knows what will happen but I’d love to see the pictures of his **** being cleared out of the speakers office before he’s had the chance to occupy it
publikcitizen Posted January 3, 2023 Posted January 3, 2023 So they adjourned for the day? I guess they will try to whip the votes behind the scene tonight and hope to get McCarthy enough votes for the 4th round tomorrow

This is where I'm getting the greatest schadenfreude out of all of this. Of course it'll be a different story once the Jordan caucus defaults on the debt, but we'll cross that bridge when we reach it.

The GOP is definitely going to have to have a come to Jesus moment because the Never Kevin people aren't going to budge
Vermillion Posted January 3, 2023 Posted January 3, 2023 Here's the official announcement. They're back at Noon tomorrow EST for Round 4. In the meantime (likely late into the night per several journalists on Twitter) Team Kevin will be whipping votes (even though he says he won't). Who knows what Gym Jordan will try to do after his floor speech

Apparently that's what Paul Gosar (anti-McCarthy) was asking AOC of all people: if Dems had any plans to make it easier on KM

This whole situation is so crazy
