Don't be so sure. There's a reason he gave that useless nomination speech for the futile 2nd round of voting.
Gym is dying to be head of the judiciary committee, and really doesn't want to be bored with being a cat herder (he's got one more brain cell than McCarthy). He's the cheerleader for the Fox crowd, that's got to get Hunter and the FBI. Much more important than being SOTH.

No Jeffries stands a better chance. 6 GOP getting tired and wanting this to end.

Eh, not sure there are 6 left that aren't insane.

It'd be interesting to see what happens if he reached 218 and didn't want it so he declined.

I thought SSI was one of those things considered essential? Wouldn't auto-pay just continue if direct deposit?

They don't make up the missed payment? Govt workers get back pay
Our problem was the shutdown occurred while SS was processing our applications for SS payments to start, so the applications just sat there during the shutdown. By the time the shutdown ended and the processing resumed we ended up missing a couple of months payments that would have been paid if things proceeded normally.

You just have to live a couple more months than you planned to make it up.

Frankly, I'm a little shocked to realize the job of speaker is such a big deal. Power is what this is all about, the raw power, and apparently a lot of people want that power as much as they want life itself. Looks to me this goes far beyond little McCarthy, this is the lust for power and I'm wondering if it might be the "new" house republicans that are unwilling and refusing to go with the flow. If this were Rome, McCarthy would be Julius Caesar and we know how that worked out for Julius.

Why don't the democrats just get behind the most moderate R running for speaker and start voting for that person? Kind of like the least evil option.
