BREAKING: Republicans Drop Jim Jordan From Speaker Bid, No Candidate 17 Days After McCarthy Ouster

A few days ago, Jim Jordan withdrew his name from the Speaker bid….

Then he re-entered…

Then he lost a couple more votes….

And breaking just now, the Republicans have voted to take Jim Jordan off the ballot for Speaker.

Things are getting ugly:

From the AP:

Republicans dropped Rep. Jim Jordan on Friday as their nominee for House speaker, making the decision during a closed-door session after the hard-edged ally of Donald Trump failed badly on a third ballot for the gavel.

Afterward, Jordan said simply of his colleagues, “We put the question to them, they made a different decision.”

The hard-charging Judiciary Committee chairman said House Republicans now need to come together and “figure out who our speaker is going to be.”

The House impasse deepening into a full-blown crisis, Republicans have no realistic or workable plan to unite the fractured GOP majority, elect a new speaker and return to the work of Congress that has been languishing since hard-liners ousted Kevin McCarthy at the start of the month.

But it’s been a hard week of work so time to pack up and go home for the weekend:

UNIPARTY wins again?

17 days huh?

Gee, you don’t say!

You have to wonder though if this is all EXACTLY what Gaetz and his team wanted…

Without a Speaker, there’s no more overseas funding, do I have that correct?

Watch the Establishment absolutely melting down over the idea that they can’t continue to send Billions to other countries:

If you ask me, I say keep it unfilled permanently!

Because I’m really tired of this:
