Karma!!!!
This shit needs to stop.
Hakeem Jeffries!!!😊
Republicans famous for screwing up a good think…..Jordan us perfect for post…but some DISGRUNTLED Republicans in Texas think their opinions more important than well being of Republicans house members as a whole…have to give PELOSI credit for one thing she ran with an IRON FIST..if you did not go along with her agenda she could run you out of congress..Republicans have NO SUCH RAMROD…
McCarthy ….. Why don't you tell those casting their votes for you to vote for Jordan. Get this done or be prepared to be out of a job come next election and that is for ALL REPUBLICANS!
Give it up Jim!
No no no not Jefferies under no circumstances what about a woman. Please repub do it
Quit futzing around and elect Jordan
Ignore the trivial media paparazzi.
Jordan lost because the American people do not want him to be Speaker of the House……not ever. So, what are he and his insane little buddies doing now? The only thing that would work now is pure "blackmail." What's Jordan or others like him got on you? Jordan is destroying our Democratic Republic as we know it, but that's the very reason We the People don't want him to be Speaker.
This is what happens when you undermine your party. It shows the Republicans as divided and divisive. How stupid that was!
McCarthy eating the turmoi up. That’s not a true person wanting the best for our country he was smiling every time Jordon failed.
I Got news for all the Democrats there so many people I know who turned Republican it ain't funny. Like the list of Republicans who didn't vote for Jordan made public.It's time to vote them out. Coming from a used to be Democrat
Will you hurry up and get a damn speaker in! Geezuz them all are in this. Not just one one party being responsible. It's both.
Quit fiddling around, or your going to screw up and the Democrats will get it back.
Jim JORDAN NEW SPEAKER OF HOUSE
Jordan should be in prison.
Take your time no speaker no money for Ukraine and Israel no war for Biden! Can't secure our border and help our people but give billions to countries for war!
We don't need a liar. Santos want your job
It’s amazing that McCarthy thinks democrats should come to the rescue of the most loathsome, vile possible candidate which even 10% of his party ( and soon to be much more) can’t be bullied into voting for .
Would be nice if gop started acting like a team
Time for a third party
🤡s in a Circus called the
House of Representatives
Please don’t give up on the Republican Party it’s being stonewalled by holdouts. Televise the votes and look closer to whom represents you and Americans.
Put trump in
Jordon please Sept down ! Wish they could send the 8 nuts included my statae of Tn Burgess hope for good no vote from me . We are all tired of seeing trouble in the whitehouse get it together elect someone and move on if not go home for good.
It’s not the 8 that’s the problem, it’s the 20-25 rinos mr mccarthy, Jim Jordan would make a great speaker, you said it yourself, this is rinos playing Biden Pelosi politics! We now know who you all are and where you stand against conservative America including yourself mr. McCarthy
How you think poor people are worried about government shutdown? Can't muss nothing they never had! Meanwhile rich man sweating bullets, he might have to pay taxes! He might have to spend his own money! Boo hoo hoo.
Jim needs to be the Speaker.
I blame Matt Gaetz for this chaos in the House!!!! These GOP RINOS – what a shame!!!!
Look at McCarthy smiling. He’s enjoying every bit so they beg him to come back.
Jordan is way worse than McCarthy. I've read multiple stories about his short temper and screaming and almost punching people in Congress. That's why they don't want him. Plus he helped plan the insurrection.
Iam so tired of them blaming the Democrats it’s your party take responsibility
6:33 pm. A sad day for this country. Politicians should not receive a pay check for this 3-ring circus going on.
I sure hope everyone remembers every Republican That voted with the democrats against Jim Jordan. And vote them out, do not forget it.
I would never have voted for Jordan for one reason. He is right with Gaetz, Biggs, Bishop, Mace, Greene, Brobert and the other radicals. I feel so strongly about despising those idiots that last week I dropped the GOP. I am now and forever more a registered independent. I want nothing to do with any party those radicals are in. That clearly includes Jordan. These people in no way care what the men and women of middle America want or need. They (just like the liberals) are only worried about pushing their radical agenda. I have no tolerance for radicals regardless of which side they are on. All these people have achieved is to prove to the world that Republicans are incapable of governing and that in 2024 the Democrats will for years to come hold the majority in the house and senate and the White House. These people have killed the once great GOP.
The left, and a few Republicans want a RINO for speaker
