Kevin McCarthy failed to become Speaker on the first 11 ballots. Also: Two abortion rulings, and criminal justice questions at the Michigan Supreme Court and in the Colorado Senate.
Kevin McCarthy will almost certainly not be the next Speaker of the House.
My concern is that whoever does get the position will almost certainly be even worse.
Well, he finally got the speakership - but he pretty much gave away the farm to get it. We're in for a very bumpy and dysfunctional two years.
To say the least. It’s going to be a clown show.
Indeed. It was definitely more "signs of difficulty ahead" than "a solution."
