Obviously some bad blood between these two.

Paybacks are hell.

The whole single motion to start a vote to remove the Speaker is silly. It would fail and if the Gaetz crowd tried it again McCarthy would change the rule with full support.


My understanding is that was the rule until it was changed in 2018 by Nancy Pelosi, and that it had been in place for over 100 years. If it was a source of disruption, you would have heard of it before.

Cspan is showing 21 anti-McCarthy votes. Who switched or is the count off?

I didn’t notice anyone switch either so I guess it was a miscount, or entry error, by cspan. They’ve pulled the tally down.

Patrick McHenry: “Each meeting is more positive than the last. Goal is to get a Speaker tonight.”


And from my new favorite congressman, Eli Crane: “I haven’t heard about a deal; but I’m not looking for one. Leadership knows where I’m at.”

That aligns with my highly inefficient and alcohol-influenced tally.

Steve looks like he's all over the place like he's at a Mardi Gras ball making some deals.

I think the Democrats will decide the republican speaker. I'll bet they allow enough votes to get McCarthy in. Better the speaker you can control than a surprise upset.

And to stick it to the 20.

Politico reporting …

Motion by Republicans to adjourn for the evening is forthcoming.
Dems will vote ‘no.’

Same story as last night.

And confirmed by CNN.

Adjournment would be until 12EST tomorrow, but McCarthy loses 4 supporters to other commitments tomorrow.

Need to make these assholes sit in the chamber until 2 am, and be back at 6 until they make a fricking compromise.
