Former Soros Group Spokesperson Poised for Election as GOP House Speaker; Previously Advocated for Abolishing the Electoral College

House Republicans voted down Jim Jordan, a member from Ohio, as a candidate for the House Speaker position. The secret ballot concluded with 112 votes against Jordan and 86 in his favor.

This ballot was cast after the House of Representatives lacked a Speaker for over two weeks, following a motion by Matt Gaetz to vacate the chair. Kevin McCarthy had also been removed from the position earlier in the month by a 216-210 vote.

The eight Republicans that voted against McCarthy included Biggs, Buck, Burchett, Crane, Gaetz, Good, Mace, and Rosendale.

After the recent ballot, Kevin McCarthy voiced his support for Tom Emmer (MN) for the position of House Speaker. Emmer subsequently announced to the House Republican Conference his intention to seek nomination for the role.

It doesn’t take a genius to ask why MAGA Republicans ditched McCarthy without first securing the votes for a replacement who would be an improvement.

Problem is he might get enough Democrat votes to win.

Emmer is a Soros stooge and should be driven out of the Congress. He is a Soros spokesman who does what Soros says.

Get rid of this bum. He is from Mn.where they are rinos who are Dems running on the GOP ticket to get money to campaign as Republicans but vote Marxist Dem.

"He is considered the engineer of the majority."

WTF country did you come from?

The US federal government is a (public) electoral republic, not some Politburo of selected "representatives".

THIS is what we have been attempting to warn the FReepers that gripe about not sticking with the plan, voting any and all (R).
This cr@p needs to be cleaned out of the system, if we are to have ANY chance of bringing this country BACK to a Constitutional Republic, which is what it is supposed to be.

I think Hern is some what conservative but may be more palatable to moderates than Jordan. Moderates are always the majority of the GOP Congress which is why historically we always have a RINO Speaker. Its imperative not to end up with Emmer. Been may be the compromise. We’ll see.
