This guy Biggs doesn’t have the votes. The only Republican even close to having the votes is McCarthy, and the alternative is someone the Democrats help pick. I’m no fan of McCarthy, but he has has at least promised to remove Ilhan Omar and Eric Swalwell from their committee posts. It’s either McCarthy or someone worse - the choice needs to be McCarthy.
This is sort of like holding your nose to vote for McStain or Romney in 2008 and 2012.
