RIP Walt Cunningham, the last surviving member of the Apollo 7 return-to-space crew that revived the moon program after the deadly launch pad fire of Apollo 1. https://t.co/fT6m44CbpQ — PolitiTweet.org

Employers added 223,000 jobs in December, about in line with economists’ expectations but lower than the average in recent months. The unemployment rate ticked down to 3.5%, back to its low point from before the pandemic. @lydiadepillis https://t.co/DeTnc6RvlK — PolitiTweet.org

Why is this man smiling? "The long, slow humiliation of Kevin McCarthy—a 'self-geld,'as the Never Trump commentator Charlie Sykes memorably put it—grinds on." @sbg1 https://t.co/FZQThX0fFq — PolitiTweet.org

Only 7 times in US history has it taken more than 9 votes to pick a speaker, none in the last century and a half. The House is now in a place it hasn't been since 1859 when it took 44 votes to choose a leader. https://t.co/e6UjIKBXIE — PolitiTweet.org

Trump again struggles as kingmaker. His chosen candidates failed to usher in a red wave, his effort to oust McConnell was crushed, his new presidential campaign has underwhelmed and now his House allies defy him. @maggieNYT @MichaelCBender https://t.co/og96FDsyTU — PolitiTweet.org

Biden announces a sweeping crackdown on people who seek refuge at the border with Mexico but will allow up to 30,000 migrants from Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela and Haiti to legally apply for entry to the US each month. @shearm @esullivannyt https://t.co/GnT4eHaolJ — PolitiTweet.org

Putin orders a short cease-fire along the front line in Ukraine for the Russian Orthodox Christmas, a move dismissed by a Ukrainian official as “hypocrisy.” @AKurmanaev @CassVinograd https://t.co/NqvtsFbeKa — PolitiTweet.org

"What has been on display" in the Capitol this week, writes @danbalz, "is a perfect storm of misjudgment and anti-institutionalism." And it's been building toward this for a long time. https://t.co/QLXv93V3fH — PolitiTweet.org

New car and truck sales in America fell to their lowest level in a decade last year because automakers hobbled by supply problems could not make enough vehicles for consumers to buy. Now they confront another challenge--weakening demand. @nealboudette https://t.co/O0gIQQNIg5 — PolitiTweet.org

@sbg1 Certainly seems like Ken Buck has just outlined what happens now -- assuming McCarthy can't cut a deal that seems out of reach, then the caucus will give up on him by the end of the day and start to move to Scalise, who will then have to cut the deal McCarthy couldn't. — PolitiTweet.org

@RogueDew Good question. According to @gbrockell, Nicholas Longworth, then the majority leader and Teddy Roosevelt's son-in-law, assured the rebels "that any changes to House rules that they proposed would be given a fair hearing." https://t.co/WR031l3YMn — PolitiTweet.org

Biden sticks with LA's Garcetti, renominating him to be ambassador to India despite an 18-month impasse over the former mayor's handling of sexual misconduct allegations against an aide. @cmsub and @weatherdak https://t.co/AjDyjMPUPK — PolitiTweet.org

What was supposed to be a triumphant moment for Republicans as they assumed the majority of the House instead turned into political chaos not seen in the chamber in 100 years as they adjourned for the night without electing a speaker. @CatieEdmondson https://t.co/t7xmfmt8CQ — PolitiTweet.org

Every four years, political reporters have wondered if this would be the time there might finally be a brokered nominating convention in either party, but it never happens. This is in effect the equivalent of that brokered convention. — PolitiTweet.org

The last time a prospective speaker failed to win on the first ballot was in 1923 when it took three days and nine ballots for Frederick Gillett to finally prevail. Back then, progressive Republicans demanded rules changes to share power; Gillett refused https://t.co/q6KkOe0skI — PolitiTweet.org

With five GOP members balking so far, we now know we are going to see something virtually no one alive has seen before -- a failed speakership candidacy on a first vote and at least a second ballot required to pick a House leader. — PolitiTweet.org

After the House GOP caucus devolved into bitter squabbling as McCarthy berated his detractors and his critics vented their spleen, members gather for a climactic vote. Follow our live coverage with @CatieEdmondson and @ESCochrane https://t.co/8J6249QKLv — PolitiTweet.org

With gridlock looming in Congress, Biden's economic legacy will depend on how effectively his administration allocates trillions of dollars contained in the economic bills that he signed into law during his first two years in office. @jimtankersley https://t.co/mjhGOORD8p — PolitiTweet.org

More than 345 million people around the world are suffering from or at risk of acute food insecurity, more than double the number from 2019, thanks in part to Russia's war on Ukraine. @ewong @AnaSwanson https://t.co/ieHW7KWzkv — PolitiTweet.org
