Rep. Jim Jordan met the 20 hold outs tonight and they told him bluntly they won't support him for Speaker
This is crazy. They'll never give us this victory.
Jordan wanted to know what they wanted and what the issue is.
Their opposition doesn't seem to be based on anything.
They're just being complete a**holes for the sake of it?!
Kind of like "Never Trumpers".
Anyway, another (third) Speaker vote is scheduled for tomorrow.
Jordan is not quitting which is good. McCarthy had 15 rounds of voting remember.
The plan to empower the Bush crony as Speaker also did not go down well.
I say keep things in limbo.
The precious Ukraine funding in particular will not happen without a Speaker and the clock is ticking on government funding (CR).
Thoughts on this?
Jim Jordan already “moving towards the middle” on Ukraine war funding:

YOU have no plan.
2 Trillion buck$ deficit forever?
McCarthy is on board with your plan....
Cant be Mike Rogers again, surprisingly he voted for Jordan both times?
So, where we today?
The republicans look like idiots and are floundering around. No Speaker when they control the house. Is that progress Mr. Gaetsz? Where are you hiding now? You seem so silent having pooped your pants publicly. I thought that was Biden’s job. Now you are smelling like Biden.
The deep state wants to keep their money laundering system working.
The RINOs are unhinged. Typical Democrats.
“The republicans look like idiots... “
The GOPee and you ARE idiots.
Embrace the Suck.
Matt Gaetz Stuns CNN Fake News Reporter Who Asks What He’s Gained by Toppling Kevin McCarthy
You are a dimmocrap troll as far as I'm concerned. Gaetz is a patriot who cares about his country. One of the few I could point to in our present disgusting Congress.
I have asked my rep to stand strong for no continuing res, and stay with Jordan. These bushites don’t want to have elections and are pushing to keep an unelected, no vote temporary. They want to change the intent of the House. Write your rep and tell them NO TO CR - NO TO TEMPORARY, UNRLECTED SPEAKER, AND YES TO JIM JORDAN. They ate afraid that Jordan will stick with the investigations and some (and probably Senators as well) have been corrupt.
Nine thought, but it does not work.
They have the Senate and the Presidency and you have a broken house full of unwilling idiots.If the Top will not unify then they are losers, and currently they are along with looking like buffoons.
I am a republican, but strongly dislike the incompetence and personal agrandvisement of some of the baboons.
If you are a democrat you love these morons, like Mr.Goetsz
.
Good job. Thx for posting more info on Bacon.
These names were all unfamiliar to me.
It’s been quite a learning experience.
YOU are a GOPeer excuser.
Useless.
Pay your “fair” share of the Debt before you check out..
Killing off a dangerous RINO is a plan and stands on its own.
Right wingers are individualist, reactionary bomb throwers-
Leftists are pro-meaning first-gressive, cohesive, collective communists/marxists.
Select team accordingly.
Some how I think that will be a hunting season without limits.
Not so much hunting as it is pest control
