What's going to happen is Thursday end of day or Friday McCarthy will work with dems to pass a resolution allowing the person with the most votes, period, to win the vote. This will force the holdout Republicans to either vote for McCarthy or accept Jeffries as speaker.

It would be suicide for them to not vote for McCarthy at that point.

I’d vote for the Democrat in that case.

Whatever it takes to make Republican politicians listen and hold them accountable.

If McCarthy and his lot are willing to threaten and force suicide, take them up on it.

Call his bluff or let him die by his own glad handing with Democrats. If he refuses to step aside and makes a deal with Democrats to assure Jeffries wins, let him explain why he has too much pride to step the frick aside. Why are you this desperate for power?

Can congress pass resolutions without a speaker? Would that move to a vote for speaker pro tempor?

That would be pretty stupid for everyone involved.
