  1. #SteveDeace was roasting #JimJordan for giving up on being speaker of the house after 3 votes. Two things:

    1. Being so unpopular in the #GOP is literally how #KevinMcCarthy failed to lead and ended up getting ousted. Having #JimJordan go 20 rounds would lead to the same result, if he ended up getting the seat.

    2. #JimJordan never wanted the seat anyways. Meanwhile, #KevinMcCarthy had a lust for it. That’s one of the reasons why I thought #JimJordan would have been an excellent speaker.

  2. Justin Amash has been “campaigning” to be Speaker since November, when it became clear McCarthy might not get it.

    But it was limited to Twitter.

    It was basically an opportunity talk about reforms a good Speaker would adopt, not a real run for the job.

    Well, apparently Amash looked at this chaotic timeline and figured “F*ck it. Why not?” because since 2 pm, he’s been on the House Floor ACTUALLY campaigning.
