I wonder if the Republicans still haven't realized that the Trump investigations are already paid for indefinitely? even if the government shuts down Jack Smith's case keeps going.

the only thing they'll be doing is prevent public services and aid to Israel/Gaza

To expand on the tag speakership, the only way this works is by passing a new rules package after you install the initial speaker. New rules could lower the threshold to a plurality or some kind of rotation. Constitution doesn't really dictate how a speaker is chosen beyond choosing one being paramount at the beginning of a session.

the government is paralyzed right now. It can't do anything.

If the situation in the middle east gets worse the problem in the house will become critical. They will need to do something just to pass any kind of bill for dealing with the middle east conflict.

It's less about the job and more about punishing McCarthy for not coddling him during his investigation.

Gaetz knows damn well he can't get the votes. He's content with pushing his "mentor and role model" Jordan instead.

And he's probably been giving every designee a rubber stamp because he wants them to snuff out the ethics investigation on him.

Since McCarthy has the most support in the conference he should agree to the speakership with a compromise or guarantee to his opponents. Like if he backtracks on promises, then any single person can call for a vote for him to vacate the speakership.

Sounds like a plan!

It's going to be critical in at most 24 days cause we they need to pass a budget.
