'23 IS A YEAR OF CHAOS: A painful day for The NOT-House Speaker McCarthy
A once in a 100 year event: The House has adjourned without a Speaker..
Tumblr media
CNN reporting on the political turmoil:
The new House GOP majority is locked in a chaotic once-in-a-century fight to determine who will serve as the next speaker after Republican Kevin McCarthy failed to secure the necessary support to win in three rounds of voting on Tuesday. The House is now adjourned until Wednesday at noon as Republicans scramble to find a path forward.
McCarthy faces a small but determined contingent of hardline conservatives who are intent on denying him the votes to secure the gavel. The top House Republican has defiantly vowed to stay in the race as he continues his increasingly imperiled bid for speaker. But the longer the fight drags on, the more uncertainty there is over whether he can win. The last time an election for speaker went to multiple ballots was in 1923.
The contentious, drawn out fight threatens to deepen divides among House Republicans with McCarthy’s political career on the line. And the deal-making McCarthy has engaged in to try to win over critics may mean he has a weaker hand to play in his position of authority if he does become speaker.
Twenty House Republicans threw their support behind GOP Rep. Jim Jordan, who has repeatedly said he does not want the gavel, and sunk McCarthy's bid to take the position on the opening day of Congress.
The House adjourned after the third vote until noon on Wednesday, ensuring that for the first time in more than 100 years a Speaker was not chosen in the opening vote.

The Howling
The Howling Franchise The Howling is one of those stalwart horror franchises that I’ve always felt bad about not watching. It’s almost as revered as An American Werewolf in London, but the problem is… Werewolves really aren’t my thing. I didn’t see American werewolf until I was close to 40. I do think they can be effective and scary…  I recall watching Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein at…

I should probably hold off on posting this until after Kevin McCarthy loses his next election, but in all fairness, this is probably how he feels right now:
Tumblr media
Edit: I honestly probably should have said "You wanted to get elected House Speaker and you did." For that first one, but whatever. Most people will get it.
Extra Edit: I totally didn't even think of putting his face in there.

Jordan Reverses Himself and Will Push for a Third Speaker Vote
Here is the recap-
Republicans, continuing their tradition of playing stupid games and being shocked when they win stupid prizes, kicked Kevin McCarthy out of his post of Speaker of the House.
For context, Kevin McCarthy had a fucking awful time getting the job back in January, needing like 15 tries and a bunch of stupid placating and bootlicking the MAGA nuts. An incredible moment in US history. So many memes. Republicans almost getting into fist fights on the floor on the House. Embarrassing Chaos. and they STILL FUCKING KICKED MCCARTHY OUT. AFTER ALL THAT. (Probably because he compromised with Democrats to temporarily fund the government while they argued about the budget) Embarrassing.
They fire McCarthy with no backup plan. To be clear, this is intentional. The MAGA fuckers want to break the government. Also no one wants to be Speaker. It's an awful job.
Ok, so then they have to decide who will be the new speaker. Trump suggests Jim Jordan. There is a secret republican ballot. Jordan loses to some other guy (Scalise.) Ha.
Once it's time for the real vote (with the democrats and all)- unity shatters and Scalise can't carry the vote. He says he doesn't want it anymore.
So fine, Jim Jordan. Let's go.
He loses.
A bunch of Republicans hate him. He is suuuuper implicated in Jan 6 and is a scumbag.
He tries again.
He loses. Again. Worse than the first time. Hilarious. Humiliating.
Everyone is like "not this shit again. Can we just let the temporary speaker be the speaker until January so the House can like...function while the Republicans figure their shit out?"
Jim Jordan says he'll go along with this plan on TV. Because publically losing the Speaker vote multiple times is humiliating.
The MAGAs loose their FUCKING MINDS because this was a Democrat idea so its BAD. How DARE YOU WE JUST FIRED MCARTHY FOR COMPROMISING WITH THE DEMS.
Jim Jordan says FINE, I take it back. I'll try again.
We don't have a third vote scheduled.
It'd be funnier if the clowns weren't running OUR circus, ya know?

Finally.. McCarthy takes speakership..
After a failed motion to adjourn until Monday, McCarthy finally had the votes to secure the position.
When the win was announced, Reps. Steve Scalise, Elise Stefanik, and Ryan Zinke, the last member to vote, all ran over to McCarthy with their vote cards for him to sign.
The entire GOP conference was on their feet clapping. McCarthy hugged many members that came up to him and waved to folks in the gallery.
