BREAKING NEWS: after two days of the most contentious Speakership vote in 100 years, the new Republican Majority has FAILED. AGAIN.
Jack — Republicans officially took control of the House of Representative 48 hours ago, and now, after 6 rounds of voting, they still have not managed to elect a Speaker.
Is this really what Republicans said they'd "get done" for America?
Unfortunately, it is.
It is exactly the kind of behavior Republicans promised to engage in when they took back the reins of power: Blatant obstruction of crucial legislation. Politically-targeted investigations into top Democrats. Impeachment proceedings against Biden. Election deniers elevated to top House Committee positions. Coddling of corporations and billionaires. Attacks on Medicare and Social Security.
It could not be clearer, Jack, as soon as they're finished with their public bickering, House Republicans are planning a full court press of chaos and obstructionism.
