It is a real shame he doesn't want to be Speaker.

He wants to chair the Judiciary Committee, where he would be more useful.

Unfortunately, he’s just flapping his gums.

The GOP House can pass all the bills it wants, but none of them will become law.

I think Michael Jordan will be the House Speaker before Jim Jordan gets the job.

JIm Jordan needs to step up. HIs country is calling him to service.

The question is whether Jordan can recognize this path to greatness. I believe he would be so good at being Speaker that he would eventually have a chance to run for the presidency.

Would you? What a disorganized cluster of house members.

It’s a no brainer at this point. You pick the guy that can unite the party. George Washington didn’t want to serve either. McCarthy will just bring years of turmoil and a loss of the house in 2024. If Jordan doesn’t like it he can always step down after he develops a worthy successor. The Judiciary committee is worthless. What have we gotten out of all the investigations but sound bites. We don’t control the DoJ so the House investigations do nothing. “What difference at this point does it make?” And Cankles was right. They need to focus on things they can control. I’m really proud of this process by the Republicans though. Finally a real debate and fight rather than just handing over money like a holdup victim.

YouTube has a new feature that puts the Closed Captioning into a "transcript" form, so I'm testing that out here for those that don't wish to watch the video:

Transcript

0:01 I think we have three objectives this
0:03 Congress three fundamental things we
0:05 have to get done in the 118th Congress
0:07 first pass the bills that fix the
0:10 problems in two years time we have went
0:14 we we have a border that is no longer a
0:16 border we have a military that can't
0:18 meet its recruitment goals we have bad
0:19 energy policy bad education policy
0:22 record spending record inflation record
0:24 debt and a government that has been
0:26 weaponized against we the people against
0:28 the very people we represent
0:30 thank you
0:33 so we we need to pass legislation to
0:36 address all that
0:37 and I hope my Democrat colleagues will
0:39 join me
0:40 I really do
0:42 but I have my doubts and if they don't
0:44 and if Chuck Schumer says no we're not
0:45 going to take up that legislation that
0:47 we pass and if Joe Biden won't sign it
0:49 so be it they'll have to they'll have to
0:51 answer to the people in 2024.
0:53 second second we can never ever let a
0:57 bill like the one that passed 12 days
1:00 ago 1.7 trillion dollars we can never
1:03 ever let that kind of legislation pass
1:05 again
1:06 foreign
1:18 we have to we have to pass a budget that
1:20 makes sense that's good common sense
1:22 then do the 12 appropriation bills that
1:24 that are that recognizes the people's
1:26 money not ours and send it to the Senate
1:29 and then stand firm on that legislation
1:31 and again if they won't take it up
1:34 and Joe Biden won't sign it we can stand
1:37 firm on a CR or something we can have
1:39 that fight but we are not going to have
1:41 what took place a week and a half ago
1:43 ever happen again and then finally third
1:45 and this is important
1:48 we got to do the oversight we'll do the
1:50 investigations
1:55 we have to do the oversight and the
1:57 investigations
1:59 that need to be done
2:01 this idea that bureaucrats who never put
2:03 their name on a ballot but think they
2:05 run the country who have assaulted our
2:07 constituents First Amendment Liberties
2:09 they need to be held accountable that
2:11 has to happen we need to do it

That was a pain in the arse to reformat. I don't think I'll be doing that again.

He does. Just posing as not wanting it too much.

He does sound like a Speaker. Got a standing ovation too.

I never knew Jordan was fake MAGA. Appears to be so.

It’ll end up being McCarthy whether you like it or not. You’re not going to get 218 votes for anyone else.

I wouldn’t be surprised if 19 Dems vote for him.

"It is a real shame he doesn't want to be Speaker."

He's got ethical standards. Something that's a drawback for a House Speaker.

He doesn’t want it. It’s not going to happen.

All we would hear about is the perv wrestling coach from 40 years ago. It doesn’t matter that he did nothing wrong. It would be the biggest distraction imaginable.
