No more voting. McCarthy should have to do a series of tasks like in Die Hard With A Vengeance in order to get the speakership.
He won't make it past the water jugs.
I'm genuinely stunned. When McHenry nominated him, they absolutely 100% thought they had it. In all their body language. Can't remember the last time I saw the leadership that floored by a loss. TARP failure in '08?

It continues to amaze me that Patrick McHenry is so far and away the best the Republicans have in the House and they seem to not have any idea of the fact
The deeper I look into the bowels of last week’s job market data, the more I think we can skirt a recession. That’s because businesses aren’t laying off workers and unemployment is at a half century low, but regardless, job market slack is forming, and wage pressures are abating.
The security team of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) and the riot police retaken the headquarters of the Three Powers after the invasion. Bolsonaristas coup plotters go down the ramp of the Palácio do Planalto in handcuffs and under police escort.
The chat transcripts obtained by the @latimes also show Edwards using homophobic and racial slurs, including the n-word. A lot.
This was all before he became a cop: https://t.co/wuM5t55dLh
Lula recalls that he lost 3 elections and never pulled anything like this, blaming Bolsonaro by name for what happened today. One gets the sense that Lula is invigorated by this frontal assault on Brazilian institutions. Righteous indignation on full display.
That’s nice but doesn’t help any other player that has the same split contract.
NFL should get rid of split contracts and provide lifetime insurance for former players. If you want to honor the sacrifices like Damar made on the field, owners should honor players with insurance
In a couple of days, it will be 21 years since the US military prison at Guantánamo Bay opened.
This notorious site of torture and indefinite detention should have been shut down years ago.
Will all members of the House – and the public – get to see this secret 3-page deal? (as reported by @PunchbowlNews) @RepCharlieDent makes some good points about this defining vote.
This is probably the most fire-breathing thing we have put out in a minute, and it is about some stuff buried in the December Summary of Economic Projections, but man that stuff is Bad Bad Bad and we all need to tell them
