The New York Times: Rep. Kevin McCarthy won election on Saturday as House speaker on the 15th ballot, after giving major concessions to right-wing holdouts and weathering a dramatic late-night setback that underscored the limits of his power over the new Republican majority.
Jack –– While McCarthy finally got what he wanted, the right-wing MAGA caucus is in charge of the GOP House.
And they've made their agenda clear:
❌ Hold the American economy hostage to force cuts to Social Security and Medicare
❌ Launch endless and pointless investigations into President Biden and his family.
❌ Obstruct progress at every turn.
Matt Gaetz and his extremists are not interested in governing. They are only interested in causing chaos.
They MUST be defeated next year, and that work starts NOW.
