    They aren’t making the playoff this season so might as well tank and position for a great draft pick. ;)

    Many in the Republican caucus hate Liz Cheney more than Democrats.

    There are informal conversations that have been underway. When we get back to Washington tomorrow, it's important to begin to formalize those discussions” - house minority leader Jeffries

    Will Jordan if elected gets the same vote-to-vacate option that McCarthy got?

    I suspect not since SCWs really are not down with the whole good-for-the-goose-good-for-the-gander.

    I recall that was up for discussion in the private Republican caucus meetings but hadn't heard if it had been repealed.

    Even without that rule if Jordan wins I predict he will be have one of the shortest terms for speaker.

    I just feel like its better to move forward, the stolen election has been talked about soo much and we are too close to a new house speaker and president. I just want things to get better...
