Fight between KKK faction and MAGA faction in the Repugnant House, no winners or mediators. Scalise won the preliminary vote over Gym Jordan but will not get enough votes to get elected Speaker, ultimate insult being that Santos is refusing to vote for Scalise.
Quote:
Republicans opposing Scalise cite several reasons: what they say is the lack of a plan to fund the government, no plan to change how Washington works, anger that Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) lost the job and opposition to giving the next person in line a promotion.

How can anyone compromise on these grievances?
Hey, how about voting in McCarthy again?
