Podcaster Dan Bongino blasted House members Friday for not producing a speaker after 17 days.
"PICK A SPEAKER ALREADY YOU CHILDISH NITWITS!" Bongino wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) has failed in three elections for speaker as of Friday. The previous two elections happened back to back on Thursday. Former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was ousted when eight Republicans voted to oust him along with the rest of the Democratic members.
"McCarthy, of all people, was just on the floor nominating Jordan, which makes these whining crybaby wussbags in Congress look even worse," Bongino said later on his podcast, the Dan Bongino Show. "This is hilariously stupid. This is so dumb. Put your big boy pants on."

Not a bit. If he is just going to be Democrat Lite, why bother having a GOP Speaker?
Ken Buck, anti- Trump, pro-Liz Cheney, pro-drag queen funding, anti-Biden impeachment inquiry, CNN grifter wannabe
Bongino - who I don’t like sometimes - is totally right on this one.
Gaetz was doing some grandstanding and things got out of control. So now we’ll probably end up with a radical leftist Dem as Speaker.
This is what you get when your members vote in stupid rules and the caucus is more of a mob.
eff ‘em. My world hasn’t changed much in the last two weeks. I doubt it will change much in the next two. This is what happens when you don’t rely on the government for you health and wealth.
I’ve talked to people that are so angry they say they will never vote republican again!
The same Ken Buck that voted against McCarthy, Scalise AND Jordan.
I’m not liking his a new language.
Why anyone is still a registered Republican is beyond me. The party has no respect for its constituents, and doesn’t deserve to be honored with anyone’s membership.
Need New Party—GOP/RINO Party needs to go the way of the Whigs. Need a real reform Party—A Patriots Party, a Trump Party. Symbol: A Lion, Motto: “Don’t Tread on Me.” Goal: America First! Color: Orange. Goal: One America! Money backed up by Gold. Paper ballots only, a National Holiday to Vote in Federal elections. Conative test for all Politicals over 72. CLOSE THE BORDERS for a Year! No one going north or south. New Branch of the Armed services: The Border Guards with a five mile zone to protect all borders. With Tanks, fighter planes, drones, etc... to keep borders safe. Death penality by hanging or electric chair to all traitors and drug dealers—and cop killers.
You have FR Mail.
RE: All depends on how you look at it.
Two weeks with no votes on appropriations.
If you don’t agree with Dan Bongino most of the time, then I guess you’re no Conservative. Exactly, what do you disagree with on his opinions?
That’s true.
He addresses that. And he’s okay with losing the listeners over it.
I’m a believer in looking before leaping. The “Heroic 8” should have had a viable candidate for the next Speaker, with votes in the bag, before they ousted McCarthy.
They have demonstrated for all to see that “Republican” is NOT a synonym for “conservative” (who knew...?), that the R caucus is thoroughly fractured, nd that vandals can destroy but not build. Some (5?) voting against Jordan are just pissed over the coup d’etat methodology, or don’t like Jordan personally. Some (20?) don’t want a bold conservative agenda that will force them to go on the record. (Not conservative enough? Get primaried out. Too conservative? Fire up the opposition and lose in the General Election. Nothing like being put in lose-lose sitution to sour a mood.)
Bribeden need have no impeachment fears after this display of weakness, disunity, and incompetence. Thanks so much, “Hero 8”.
Only if some Republicans want to lose their seats by voting for a Democrat.
You have FR Mail.
And YOU *GUESSED* WRONG.
I worry that some in the GOP in the House are digging a hole they can’t get out of - a position they think they can’t back out of.
I’m certainly not. Got the hell out of that worthless cuck party nearly 3 years ago. The whole party is nothing but assistant Democrats and metaphorically speaking should be savagely burned to the ground in a raging white hot all consuming fire 🔥
