Scalise Withdraws From House Speaker Race

Bisexual husband? You're a really sick and perverted little person.

What difference does that make to you?

 

[Dragonlady]

I hope that is true. Then Jim Jordan is the new speaker.

I like Scalise, but let him get better and help Jim run the House.

Even Republicans won't vote that wing nut Speaker. He's fucked up being Chair of the House Judiciary Committee utterly.

The Republican party is broken. Trump and MAGA broke the Republican party. Trump and MAGA will break the USDA if they are not stopped.

the Democrat Party supports Hamas.....so they should be considered the enemy.

True story.

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., has withdrawn from the House speaker race after he failed to unite the Republican conference around his candidacy.

"I just shared with my colleagues that I'm withdrawing my name as a candidate for the speaker designate," the Louisiana Republican told reporters on Thursday night, just one day after he narrowly won the support of his conference over Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan, the Trump-endorsed pick for speaker and the House Judiciary Committee.

But as the hours wore on, it became clearer and clearer that Scalise could not win over his detractors. At least 19 House Republicans opposed his candidacy as of Thursday evening, according to a Spectrum News tally.

"Our conference still has to come together and is not there," he added. "There are still some people that have their own agendas, and I was very clear we have to have everybody put their agendas on the side and focus on what this country needs.”

"This House of Representatives needs a speaker and we need to open up the house again," he said. "But clearly, not everybody is there. And they're still schisms, that has to get resolved."

Scalise has been the No. 2-ranking House Republican since 2019 and part of Republican House leadership since 2014. The Louisiana Republican, who turned 58 last week, was nearly killed in 2017 when a left-wing extremist opened fire on lawmakers during a practice for the annual congressional baseball game, wounding Scalise and three others.

This is a developing story. Check back later for updates.

Bull, don't you observe the news. Biden said the USA unequivacoally supports Israel over Hamas.
Even OIC or whatever her name is said the Hamas attacke was horrific and wrong.

Oh the drama!

Not drama, It is chaos that is putting our country in gridlock while many decisions need to be made domestically and internationally.
The Republican party is a clown show.

I don't disagree he was an idiot. Changes nothing I've said though.

It's a race to the bottom.

Drama can be entertaining. If you enjoy the chaos you probably enjoy watching a good car crash.

That's where you're wrong, Canuckian. I was just listening to some reps in a live chat.

Jim Jordan or Byron Donalds. Not sure if a Speaker will be done this week, but it is possible. They may even work Saturday.

The results of the house in gridlock will mean a government shut down. That will cause more harm than a car crash.

You're happy that Nancy and her bisexual husband made tens of millions while we have homeless veterans?

Keep looking for the trannies while your boys flounder. It hurts less when you don’t have to watch.
