If you thought the #HouseSpeakerVote was the ish, then you're going to love the debate & vote on the Rules Package starting in 7 minutes.
McCarthy essentially "hail mary'd" many of the imp't issues in the Speaker Vote, into the Rules package.
So it gets real, now.
McCarthy won Speaker like My Cousin Vinny passed the bar.

It takes 5 to deny McCarthy the #HouseSpeaker Chair.

If McCarthy keeps handing out concessions to the extremists like this, the House of Representatives will end up exemplifying the minority rule his party wants to impose on the nation as a whole: “McCarthy has allegedly agreed to their demand that a single person can force a vote to get rid of the speaker, a demand that puts him at their mercy and that he had previously insisted he would never accept.” #Politics #History #HouseSpeakerVote #LettersFromAnAmerican
