"The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result."
I'll go out on a limb here, and speculate that maybe some folks don't want McCarthy to be Speaker. |

Boebert says Trump should tell McCarthy to withdraw from Speaker’s race
Boebert, a staunch supporter of Trump, made the comment while nominating Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) to be Speaker during the fifth ballot. “Praise the work and the leadership of Byron Donalds. So let’s work together, let’s stop with the campaign smears and tactics to get people to turn against us. Even having my favorite president call us and tell us we need to knock this off — I think it actually needs to be reversed,” Boebert said on the House floor. “The president needs to tell Kevin McCarthy that sir you do not have the votes and it’s time to withdraw,” she added, prompting a cacophony of boos and cheers in the chamber. Boebert rebukes Trump, then helps hand McCarthy another loss For the fifth time in two days, California Rep. Kevin McCarthy lost a vote to become speaker of the House of Representatives. As with the fourth vote, a large group of GOP detractors cast their votes for Florida Rep. Byron Donalds. In a speech nominating Donalds, Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert said that her "favorite president" (former President Donald Trump) had called her and other members asking them to "knock this off." "I actually think it needs to be reversed: the president needs to tell Kevin McCarthy, 'Sir you do not have the votes and it's time to withdraw," Boebert said. After Boebert's remarks, several members on the House floor could be heard expressing surprise that Boebert publicly revealed a private conversation with Trump and proceeded to not do his bidding. As the fifth vote was underway, Colorado Rep. Ken Buck, who voted for McCarthy all five times, told CNN it's time for McCarthy to consider dropping out and supporting Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise, the No. 2 House Republican. |

We really need a constitutionally-mandated part-time Congress (with pay and benefits to match). IIRC, the record number of votes to choose a Speaker of the House is 133. Historically, at least 9 votes have been required if it no one was chosen by the third vote. |

The story is they went to him last summer, and said. 'Let's clean up some of these bullshit rules.' He said, Fuck Off, my majority will be so big I can run the Speakership under Nancy's Rules, which pretty much is I do what I wanna do. His Red Wave didn't materialize, and now the conservatives want all their demands, and are pretty much done with KM. |

We have no one, but ourselves. There are a lot of new leaders, not all of them are good, but there is new MAGA blood. Many born after Ronaldus was even President. You can't release the dragon and then hope to control the dragon. Remember McCain was a so-called "foot soldier in the Reagan army!" We have been fooled so many times before ... |
