To be clear, this would probably be resolved pretty quickly if McCarthy stepped aside. We keep talking about this as if they only solution is for him to make a deal. But him stepping aside would likely end the deadlock. Just a reminder. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm willing to believe a lot of things that are said in that lobby but this one tests my ability to suspend disbelief. — PolitiTweet.org

Overheard a few minutes ago, George Santos walking through the speaker’s lobby: “You can’t make this crap up”

@jbarro @AndrewRCraig I think so. The voting system has three buttons and so they can't substitute them for names. Its just yes, no and present. — PolitiTweet.org

@jbarro I think someone might have to author a resolution and then they would vote on it? The only rules is the constitution which says they have to elect a speaker, but doesn't say how or when. — PolitiTweet.org

"There are no rules" Rosendale says after he breaks the rules created in the no rules House. But then he insists he didn't. — PolitiTweet.org

The internet (and twitter) are full of bad takes about what this speaker debacle means. That's because it's like trying to review a restaurant after only eating the appetizer. This is just the start. There is so much more to come. — PolitiTweet.org

While I was waiting on the House, I decided to roast a turducken I had left over from the weekend and this was the best decision I made all day. Maybe the best decision anyone made today. https://t.co/yrnoz40BAR — PolitiTweet.org

Congress loves nothing more than to do things outside bankers hours. It's like they reached a bipartisan agreement at some point where they would all do important things in the middle of the night so the other side could criticize them for it. — PolitiTweet.org
