After insurrectionist Jim Jordan failed for a third time to be elected Speaker of the House, Republicans dropped him as their nominee. They have absolutely no plan forward but at least Jordan with his ally P01135809, a clear and present danger to our democracy has been dropped.
Jordan had 20 votes against on vote #1 increasing to 22 on vote #2 and increasing to #25 on vote #3.
17 days without a Speaker, the stalemate has shut down the U.S. House, leaving a seat of American democracy severely hobbled at a time of challenges at home and abroad. The House Republican majority appears to have no idea how to end the political turmoil and get back to work.
It is sad when no speaker is better than Jordan!
