Aside from the content, I want to take a moment to appreciate how this has such an informative title!:-)
No doubt. Succinct and accurate with little flair.
The anti-clickbait.
Here, I'll fix it:
Oh no! Jim Jordan loses the Speaker vote for a third time! You won't believe how many hold outs there were!
Followed by 10 paragraphs of SEO ridden, AI generated drivel that buries the answer to the point you give up on finding it
Sums up internet articles in 2023, 95% of which could be less than a paragraph, but need to fluff it up to 6 pages to inlay some ads and get those juicy organic clicks
Tune in at 11 to find out how! ... to access our video on the subject, which points to another webpage, which again links to a video, that again goes to a different story, hey this all seems familiar somehow...? :-P
It's our own damn fault I suppose, for engaging with it and thus not just allowing but outright making/encouraging it to happen.:-(
Not that that excuses them for doing it though:-(.
How will I know how to react if no one gets slammed?
Or destroyed? I like my mundane news ratcheted up to hyperbolic levels.
The idea of Jordan being speaker was one of the stupidest and most offensive ideas they’ve come up with recently, so it’s nice that it isn’t working out.

It's not a beer she has in her hands.
Netflix should buy out the comedy rights for that special. Then people would actually want to pay extra for Netflix.

And that is an incredibly high bar.
I read somewhere that a group of 55 republicans who plan to make sure he gets less votes every round. To rub in how much they don’t want him.
Nelson:
Ha ha
Are you making fun of the size of my automobile?
No, I’m making fun of the size of your voting block.
Lol, I'm fuckin Canadian, I live in the UK, I'm not a republican drone. I was riffing off the Simpsons reference...fuck me I guess.
Also riffing and having fun here. I’m joking about the chaos, not trying to attack you.
Well shit. And here I was, drunk on a train being all fragile. Touché you saucy removed!
I got that reference. Well done
Everyone needs a speaker. This is the best speaker that I could nominate. Should he therefore be made the subject of fun?
...yeah?
They're doing it on purpose. There was a report a few days ago that outlined a plan to do exactly this. It will continue to get worse for him.
What I don't get is if we know about this plan, surely gymbo must know as well. So why not just call it quits? Does he like to be humiliated? Is this some sort of fetish for him?
The goal of to whip, convince, strong arm into submission.
Thus the Disgruntled Henchmen call-center calls to the “nay” voters.
Somehow this is until fault of democrats, surely. /s
It's because they won't vote for him, obv.
Those numbers are going in the wrong direction, guy. I think you should bow out. But I hope you’re dumb enough to keep going.
Repubs are the greatest impediment to progress. Dems are the second greatest.
Then again, maybe if he keeps going he will unite everyone behind the banner of "Not Gym Jordan," which is a great service he's able to provide us.
Gym Jordan feels like what everyone wished Ted Cruz could feel.
If this was 'House of Cards'
Dems would offer Blue state GOPs who voted for Jeffries easy wins in November. The ten or so voted he'd need would be offset by loses in other states.
I don't know if that's a good idea honestly. First, they'd be giving up winnable seats in the future. Second, it'd be Democrats in charge of a republican controlled house. Sure, they could put up things they want for a vote, but stupid people would now think they're responsible for the nothing that gets done. Letting Republicans tear each other apart is probably better politically without major concessions.
If this was house of cards they would be black mailing the reps in the oval office with photos of all their kinks.
True story. After the 2016 election, there was a panel discussion with the creators of House of Cards, Scandal, The West Wing, and all the other US political TV shows. All the participants said the same thing; if they'd had a character denigrate American POWs the way Trump did in real life, the networks and advertisers would have demanded that the character be treated like a pariah on the show. We're already beyond anything fictional TV could allow.
"Reality is stranger than what TV advertisers can imagine" is a lot less interesting than "reality is stranger than fiction"
13 to go I guess.
Not the way those numbers are trending.
Maybe if he tried even MORE death threats? That would probably work...
Do it again!
