Did the Dems nominate Jordan?Didn’t take you for a Jim Jordan fan.
Not yet. Waiting for your mom to get off work. Clinton is still a shit hole.
I don’t politic as hard as some of you, so forgive my ignorance, but wtf did Jordan get the nomination when there is zero chance of him ever getting the votes? Are the republicans purposely sabotaging this process, and if so, to what end?
Theirs no “purpose” to it. They have a fractured dysfunctional caucus
I knew that, but goddamn, are there no adults in the room? These morons are gonna cause serious damage if they don‘t get their shit together. I think we may be witnessing the beginning of the end of the two party system. And when I say that, I would expect the fall to last many, many, many years. Our political system is broken beyond repair I’m afraid.
So they can tell Putin they tried
Fvcking disgusting. All of ‘em. Cons you are a disgrace to this country.
Pence is a feckless piece of shit.
Jim Jordan, Man of great integrity🤭🤭 kudos to Pence for somehow keeping a straight face while uttering that complete bullshit.
Worse maybe. She was reasonable at one point and became MAGA. It's almost like the Jew becoming a Nazi analogy.
If only there was a way for Rs to nominate anyone other than a conspiracy theorist loser ...
Just look at the MAGA morons on this board
Gee, I wonder why the Dems didn’t try to save McCarthy?
Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) had a fiery exchange with reporters Friday about the House’s ongoing dilemma, blaming Democratic members for bringing “chaos to Congress.”
After House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) was nominated for the top position on Friday evening, lawmakers went on recess for the weekend without bringing a vote to the House floor.
CNN’s Manu Raju questioned McCarthy on whether acting Speaker Patrick Henry (R-N.C.) should take on more power since the House’s divisiveness has stalled Congress. Deflecting the question, the California Republican shifted blame to the Democrats for the Speakership drama.
“So they’ve really stymied, they brought chaos in … Congress and now they’ve tried to stymie our ability to have continuity of Congress, which I think is a real problem, what the Democrats have done,” McCarthy said.
Jordan’s Speaker nomination comes ten days after McCarthy was ousted from the role by eight Republicans and all of the Democrats in a historic vote, and one day after Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) dropped out after not receiving enough Republican support.
Raju pressed McCarthy, asking how he thinks the recent “episode” reflects on the GOP. McCarthy claimed Democrats didn’t want to pay military members in government shutdown talks and “that’s why they wanted to throw me out.”
Asked what is going to happen to the 18 Republicans overseeing swing districts that Biden won in 2020, the former Speaker said it will show that “all the Democrats voted to try to bring chaos.”
The reporter interjected with “You guys can’t govern,” pointing out that all legislation in the House is currently on hold without a permanent speaker.
McCarthy, fumbling over his words, said Republicans “passed the Parents’ Bill of Rights. We passed to secure the border. We passed America’s energy independence.”
“So it’s … far different to what the Democrats, I mean, the Democrats are over here fighting about whether they could even stand with Israel,” McCarthy added.
Raju pushed further, adding “you guys can’t even act on the aid package to Israel because things are stalled.”
As it stands, Jordan earned 152 votes — beating out Rep. Austin Scott (R-Ga.), who entered a last-minute bid, but still falling short of the 217 needed to clinch the gavel.
Jordan will go up against Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) on the House floor if he can earn enough support from the remaining GOP members.

True.
My main concern all along has been Ukraine aid….Jordan is a firm no on that.
Oh well
Yep. McCarthy constantly lies about them.
Stop voting for Republicans!!! This country would be so much better off.
Yes, toss McCarthy because he says mean things about the Dems.
Jim Jordan will be a huge improvement 🙄
He's stabbed them in the back multiple times...face it, even the GOP is getting sick of MAGA. I know that hurts you
Frank Luntz, a right leaning pollster was on CNN last nite.
He's a big McCarthy fan, BTW, and he stated the obvious..."If the House Republicans don't get their shit together, voters will show them the door in next year's election".
That's a remarkable statement coming from him.

The country needs about 7-8 moderate Republicans who don’t care about being primaried and are fed up with the shit to join forces with Democrats. All these pussies need to quit worrying about their own skinny necks.
Yep. They just can’t get past what happened to Cheney and Kinzinger. And they’re desperate to hold onto these cushy, do nothing jobs.
I think at some point we just have to realize a giant portion of these people are simply dumb as ****. Like most would be unsuccessful in any other job in life too.
This is the sane solution.
Would not surprise me if talk has taken place on some switching parties and running unopposed as Democrats in 24….it is amazing it has not happened already honestly as deranged and dysfunctional and as embarrassing as the house republican caucus has become. There has to be many districts that will flip blue in 24 due to all this nonsense, so why not embrace it. These people are whores for power so….

As though the only choice for the republicans was keeping McCarthy or putting Jim Jordan in. No other possibilities so it's on the Democrats if Jordan gets in. SMFH
Many of them start out reasonable, but of those, they all, 100%, must go all MAGA if they want to be a part of the twice impeached, four time indicted, lying corrupt ex president's team.
I don't think someone like Jordan who was involved in the Jan 6 insurrection of our democracy is someone who should be anywhere near our government let alone the house speaker. He's about as scummy as they come.
Is that the Dems fault too?
