@MattGertz I’m operating under the assumption that Scalise also doesn’t have the votes but fair — PolitiTweet.org
Hayes Brown @HayesBrown
@HarrySteinDC that assumes Scalise could win the speakership! But yeah, I guess maybe?? — PolitiTweet.org
Hayes Brown @HayesBrown

Hayes Brown @HayesBrown
here’s a funny thought i just had: if McCarthy doesn’t win the speakership, there’s no alternative role for him in the leadership team that anyone in that spot will likely be willing to give up. he risks being just another backbencher, like Pelosi but without the influence — PolitiTweet.org

Re-Pete Aguilar nominates Jeffries again, a task that he’s getting very good at. And it’s Lauren Boebert’s turn to nominate Byron Donalds for the second time on this, the fifth ballot https://t.co/Z1OU4ESvv8 — PolitiTweet.org

Davidson is now reading off a list of proposed changes to the House rules from the anti-McCarthy bloc that McCarthy has already agreed to in negotiations, clearly hoping to show how many of their demands have already been met — PolitiTweet.org
