Wednesday, Fox News Channel host Sean Hannity revealed he was backing Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) as his pick to fill the Speaker of the House void. According to Hannity, Jordan, who has served as House Judiciary Committee chairman since January, is best suited to fill the vacancy left by now-former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who was ousted after a motion to vacate passed the House of Representatives.
“[I]t was also — and I know this for a fact — sadly, it was also personal,” Hannity said of McCarthy’s ouster. “You know what? It’s business. It shouldn’t be personal, but now there will be a new speaker. We know that both House Judiciary Committee chairman Jim Jordan and House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, they now both are officially in. They are running to be speaker. Let me tell you where I am tonight. Make no mistake: I like Steve Scalise. I think he’s a great leader. I think he’s a really good guy. He’s a patriot.”

Please explain UGH.
Hannity was barely tolerable while Rush was still alive.
Well if he’s for it, i’m against it
See post 4
The GOOBers need to stick it to the RATS and chose a miggy off the street to be the Speaker but only if he/she CAN’T speaka da English.
Hannity sucks ugh.
Hannity knows Karate though…
If past is prologue, Jordan will be insufficiently conservative for many who post on this forum.
Thanks for the heads up Sean.
Yup! If shawneepoo endorses there’s is something wrong. Gave up on him many years ago.
Whatever Nitwitty says, do the opposite.
Oh gee, If Hannity says it.... this is not good.
True. Just about every nationally known Republican you can think of, is criticized as being too liberal, here on Free Republic.
Please consider applying the “stopped clock” rule on this one.
A reminder...The Dems have the Senate and Biden’s mighty pen.
We’re at their mercy for another 15 months or so. So who the speaker is will make little difference.
If I need a drink, hamburger, day laborer, or a wingman on St.Patricks Day, I’ll ask for Hannitys opinion. He sure has found himself a big fish in a very small pond at Fox.
...I smell a rat and now have reservations...
I smell a rat too. What changed? He claimed over and over he didnt want it. Now he wants it. It doesnt make sense.
Is this a “Tick Tock” or a “Bombshell?”
LOL
I will consider it. OR I was considering that maybe if he said it we would react like this and oppose Jordan.
But Hannity isn’t that smart.
