Has Lindsey Graham come forward yet, and said that he’s going to conduct hearings to get to the bottom of this?

I guess he may have to move out of the office the presumptuous dork already assumed was his. He obviously didn’t spread enough of his FTX dirty money to get the votes

Not like things are improving for Mac... another patriot was added in Round 3 against him.

I’m surprised Louie Gohmert isn’t somewhere on that list.

...Ya gotta love it...really... I know I posted a quote from the great and late will Rogers a few weeks back...I actually misquoted it, to my utter shame....but...taking a up-to-date view of his quote...”I don’t belong to any organized political party - I’m a Republican”...!! pi** on them all...let Pencil-Neck Adam Schiff or Pelosi’s lapdog, Steny Hoyer, become speaker....what’s going to be the difference...??

Can someone go google and post the picture of Gosar and AOC having a lovely friendly conversation today during the vote? Y’all think you’re fighting the good fight to maintain the Republic meanwhile all these grifters are laughing at you. Just elect McCarthy and be done with it.

Hats off to these holdouts for not selling out to these “leaders” that have been destroying this country for decades.

I would not put it past the likes of Mccarthy to make back room deals with a number of democrats to not show up for the floor vote tomorrow, which would shrink the needed number for Mccarthy. If that happens, add these additional number of democrats to mccarthys beholden list.

How many votes are needed for the speakership?

Depends on how many members are present. With all the members present, then 218 I think.

If all the Dems are present and vote together and some of the Reps decide not to show up, then I guess it’s Speaker Jeffries.
