    They should emit orange smoke from the chimney when they have a new speaker

    The fact is "majority of the votes cast" not majority. See yet again the GOP fail to understand that not participating has consequences.

    He's not getting a majority of the votes cast.

    It does need to be said, this vote is also a test of Jeffries ability to keep his people in line. And he's done a good job of it. Not just keeping people voting for him, but keeping them voting.

    If he got a majority of votes cast, he’d be Speaker. He got 48.8 percent of votes cast.

    A plan: wait until January 6. Then have a handful of moderate GOPers go for Jeffries. It will blow the freedom caucus to bits.

    Bravo should offer MTG and Lauren Boebert slots in a new Real Housewives franchise - Real Housewives of MAGA - if they would resign. They might make more money, they'd get the exposure they so want and they wouldn't have to worry about pesky things like constituents, legislating or reelection.

    "And we are through five on the House vote. Time to drag the infield and a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that'll be a home run. And so that'll make it a 4-0 ballgame."
