What’s your over/under on Emmer? I say he doesn’t last until Monday.
He didn't last out the day, I believe...

Well, somebody can play REAL hardball. Wanna be Speaker? Go talk to the Dems. If Jeffries can deliver (and I think he can, they have much better cohesion) the bulk of his guys, how many Republicans would it take?

Johnson wins Speakership.
Now, lets see if he can herd the cats better than McCarthy did.

Seems like he's a bit like Jim Jordan but w/o Jim Jordan's baggage.

That's a big job for Johnson. You know, it's better than electing Mike Hunt.

I hear that Richard Gaziña dropped out early.
And Phillip McCracken wasn't interested.

Even though you're not 13 years old, it's fun to pretend, isn't it?

Total noob. Of course, early headlines talk about how he doesn’t believe in dinosaurs. Who knows, it’s hard for me to care less about the Speaker tomfoolery.

Just over one month after his unprecedented ouster, former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) unloaded on far-right Republicans who voted to remove him from the speakership, telling CNN the GOP would benefit “tremendously” without Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) in the House and excoriating Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.).
