    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.

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    I recall that was up for discussion in the private Republican caucus meetings but hadn't heard if it had been repealed.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