Gosar looked like he wanted to throw up.

Perhaps that was intended as a show of progress?  Just enough of the recalcitrant 20 changed their votes to indicate that McCarthy is making progress, but that he won't get the votes he needs until the deal is signed and sealed.

I missed Gosar and Ogles, the number is 7.   Looks like Gaetz/Biggs/Boebert might have to hang it up

I hope those changing to a McCarthy vote are doing so out of political gain/clout, not pieces of silver.

And let's hope they gained actual clout and leverage if they did.

Sanity is slowly returning…I hoped/expected as much which is why I called the shot last night that this thing is over within 48 hours

Perry is using terms like "Good Faith".....  Wow these fools have been duped.

Kev needs to do an immediate Presser and give details of what were the terms of this arm twisting

If you equate sanity to a setting up a Turdle clone, then knock yourself out

   Freedom Caucus supplies a list of members for the Rules Committee, Kevin picks one the FC picks two others-Total of 3 members.  That's not a bad deal unless McCarthy waters down the Committee with more members.

Yes, because it sounds like the holdouts worked a deal to clean out some of the pus on the festering wound.

Just sad they had to twist your boy Kevs arm and let him beclown himself 11 times to do it.

McCarthy better get his digs in, because 10% of his party aren't going to forget.......

Why not stop with the "your boy" crap?  McCarthy wasn't anyone's first choice.  My understanding of the deal is it is solid and secures for conservatives leverage and a voice.

Let's refocus on the real political enemy and get to work.

But he was the Trump's, and therefore his cheerleaders first choice.

Kevs has no track record of standing up to the real political enemies. But let's vote for Lucy again.

   Trump probably won't get his 'promised' reendorsment from ol Kev, the backstabber, anyway.
