We have right now a Coalition House, with the Freedom “caucus” voting as R’s.

McCarthy was only chosen after 15 votes because the Republicans gave the Freedom Caucus (party if you will) enough concessions to essentially form a coalition.

McCarthy broke the promises made regarding budgets. Promises made with the Freedom Caucus. Gaetz called him out on it, and the coalition picked speaker was voted out. yes, the Democrats assisted. I am not sure why exactly they did that. Most likely optics. Pelosi loves optics.

Anyway, we’re back to square one where two parties operating as one need to pick a compromise speaker again.

Too many people here are butt hurt over Gaetz, but our low info/low thought geniuses here seem to forget that the Freedom Caucus are RINO’s. They essentially are a third party.
