Dems slow walking votes to get more people in as a couple are absent. Pelosi on her way from the airport.

Edit: Looks like Pelosi may stay in San Francisco to attend funeral services for the next couple days. So she maybe a no show.

How many times did Gaetz say "Chaos"?

Bye, Kevin! Don't let the gavel smack you in the forehead on your way out!

Are we sure Gaetz isn't bought off by Dark Brandon? He's really laying into McCarthy and others.

Eight Republicans against McCarthy after the first reading.

Official notice is coming soon -- MCCARTHY has unofficially been removed from the speakership

That guy announcing recess just slammed the gavel like he wanted to destroy it lol

Domestic terrorists have taken over the US government, destabilizing our country. Downgrading our credit rating seems deserved at this point.
