(He got all of my respect after the wound he got from that lunatic and the way he fought to survive.) I agree about the voting. I think he figured he did not have the votes on the 1st ballot and withdrew knowing no one else was going to get to 216 or 217 and planned on the conference coming back to him as a compromise candidate for Speaker. He’ll either be Speaker or will decide who will be Speaker.

McCarthy didn't promise the American people anything to get elevated to the Office of The Speaker.
You're a little slow aren't you? I mean, it's okay. We'll just have to figure out a simpler way to explain it to you. You do know the 8 that opposed McCarthy as Speaker represent the CONSTITUENTS in their districts, "duh people" as you say, correct? So when these Congress men and women hear people tell them what they would like to see the Republican led House do, they convey that to other Representatives and the Speaker. The Speaker then decides what he'll take to the floor. The concessions that McCarthy made were to the constituents of these (8) Representatives, so YES McCarthy didn't hold up his end of the bargain he made to get the Speakership.

Think Again - look at Scalise’s donor list. This is who he associates with now. Same as Billy ‘the snake’ Cassidy.
Scalise and FTX Contributions

Yeah that's him bashing it at the removal of McCarthy. He treated that sound block like Paul Pelosi

Yup he will be the real leader in the House when McHenry gets elevated powers to end this.
He is proving he is the smartest politician in the House.

Sounds like the conference did another election this afternoon behind closed doors and Jordan lost by over 60 votes. Holy shite.

What do the 23 naysayers want? Its a dirty, low class stance to vote no without backing it up with ideas on manage better.

I'm seeing multiple reports now that Jordan is done. Finished.

Another CR and over $150Bln for Ukraine and Israel. It’s what McCarthy promised he WOULD NOT DO and did anyway.

Tom Emmer (#3 House Republican) has reportedly told the Republican conference that he'll be the next to Rochambeau for Speaker.

I loathe your commie friends in congress but they do stick to the commie plan. I’ll give them that.
