BREAKING. Kevin McCarthy wins GOP nomination for speaker in a 188-31 vote. – Doesn’t mean he will be the Speaker though!
There are definitely more than five members of Congress who would rather be waterboarded by Liz Cheney than vote Kevin McCarthy for Speaker of the House, and I’m one of them. pic.twitter.com/UmZurW27Bk

“Flash” – I like it!
Jim ran for speaker once before & might again.
I’m allowed to be for Jim even if he isn’t for himself (yet!)
Kevin couldn’t get 218 today…or 200…or even 190.
I’m not running because I don’t want the job.
If you want a vote you can run for Congress! https://t.co/uQDH6FH7Au
