Today after losing another vote to become Speaker, Jordan withdrew his name as candidate for Speaker of the House.
Who's left?
With the Republicans, you can never tell. Might be Lauren HJ Boebert or even Sanchez the Embezzler.
It's going to be a circus.
At the beginning of every House session, they should have a band, playing Send In The Clowns.

Problem is there are as many clowns on the Democrat's side of the aisle.

Actuality -- JJ Told me -- It's the sad reality of the situation --
They got rid of their last Speaker for the 1st time in our history just because the guy crossed the Ile & came up with a compromise bill with the Dems. & Republicans to at least until sometime in November to keep the Government from shutting down --

Look there as you put in clowns in both parties but only this ultra-right-wing group wants to actually destroy our form of Government

I wouldn't go so far as to say they want to destroy our form of Government, but they sure are making it difficult for Congress to conduct any business. What ticks me off is that the GOP is getting close to losing the House due to these antics. If they do we'll end up being in worse shape than we are now.
