If Boebert does vote present, then I'll just assume its over. I won't wait for Gaetz weird drama rear end to declare his allegiance.

Crazy that 100 years of legislative power getting centralized into leadership dashed in a week by one dude who wants a big desk.

As a non-American, I'm sorry your system is so hosed up that an extremely small minority can hold the entire House hostage. With that out of the way,

Exactly two years ago, I was up at this exact hour watching Congress. The mood on this day is significantly better than it was back then.

With that out of the way, It's only possible because the margins are so close and the last ~40 years completely jettisoned even the remotest possibility of cross-aisle voting on this sort of thing.

It’s the 16th vote, of course Gaetz is interested in this one.

But 15 votes to elect a speaker in ttyol 2023 is a loving embarrassment. Now the real question is how long it takes before they no confidence him and we have to do this again.

I don't think Gaetz can ruin this if he tried now. Even him voting for another person should still mean McCarthy wins.

well gently caress, it was historic, yall. Now we'll settle in for seeing whether the GOP house plunges us into national default or not, and an irritating torrent about some very important national congressional investigations over the massive size of Hunter Biden's surprisingly prodigious cock.

There's a chance that the vote on the rules package will go to hell though. We ain't done yet. (Or maybe we are?) Who the gently caress knows
