It’s back to square one in Republicans’ search for a new House Speaker. The weekend ended with a new slate of candidates, with nine House Republicans throwing their hat in the ring before Sunday’s noon deadline. NBC News’ Allie Raffa reports.

stalling 😂🤣😅

1:21 jfc they’ve actually gone full veep.
Selina: “Mike, a rubiks cube is not impossible to finish.”
Gary: “I saw a chinese kid do one in like 10 seconds.”
Selina: “Ten seconds, Mike!”
THE WORLD MIGHT BE ON FIRE! BUT WE DO HAVE ASTINGUISHERS, DON’T WE?

OH’ WHAT PEACE WE OFTEN FORFEIT, O’ WHAT NEEDLESS PAIN WE BEAR.
ALL BECAUSE WE DO NOT , EVERTHING TOVGOD IN PRAYER.
HAVE WE TRAILS AND TEMPTATIONS. IS THERE TROUBLE ANY WHERE?
WE SHOULD NEVER , BE DISCOURAGED. TAKE IT TO THE LORD IN PRAYER.
CAN WE FIND A FRIEND SO FAITHFUL, WHO WILL ALL OUR SORROWS SHARE?
JESUS KNOWS OUR EVERY WEAKNESS. TAKE IT TO THE LORD IN PRAYER ARE WEAK AND HEAVY LEIN, TAKE IT TO THE LORD IN PRAYER. THERE WE A FRIEND SO FAITHFUL TAKE IT TO THE LORD IN PRAYER. 🙏 ✨️ 🙌 💛 ❤️ 💓 🙏 ✨️ 🙌 💛 ❤️ 💓 🙏 ✨️ 😮😮😮😮😮😮😅😅😅😮😮😮😮
WHATS A ASTINGUISHER?
I sure how Rep. Byron Donalds doesn’t win, or I hope he gets ousted and McCarthy comes back. Imagining me being the next house speaker?
I am sorry to say these things but that no house speaker thing and the wars in the world now just have to stop!
There is no way on earth anyone can get 217 republican votes. Make Gaetz happy and you lose the NY republicans, and vice versa. After another week of messing around the GOP will start to realize this, and mchenry will agree to take expanded powers for several months.
@s Abest of luck with that 😂😂😂😂😂
@s Almao that 🦝 has zero chance to being speaker
Trey Gowdy could get 217 votes if someone put his name into the pot.
Donalds will be the next Speaker
What a circus with these Republicans Clowns
0:06 The Mount Rushmore of Stupid.
Not a single braincell combined
McCarthy’s endorsements are like Trump’s Endorsements…The kiss of death (McCarhty endorsed 2 people so far and they both went down in flames)…If either one of them endorses anybody…That person might as well call it quitz…
Piglosia n son 🤣
Hakeem Jeffries for Speaker!
Jeffries is the one for the job. Who wants a RINO for a speaker?
He’s a dem who will jump to his leaders desires. A dem speaker will give drms more power.
Only a troll wants another dem speaker.
Who wants a guy named HAKEEM
@IT, many people want Hakeem Jeffries…Most do not want any MAGA POSs as speaker!! 🤷♀️
Only if you want our country to continue being destroyed. So sad some are so navie & uniformed.
This administration is destroying our country as she’s been since birth. They seek a totalitarian regime.
Jim Jordan should be speaker
Not happening..Move on
I see nine queens before me.
Facist all of them.
☝️😉🫴💥Its embarrassing to say that this repulsive republicons party does not have one honest hope in this reckless hopeless happiness sprees normalized Maga radicalized disgraceful liberalized genius conservative less losers cult of “broken braincells” outcasts normalized house of Horrors! 😆💥😖💥🫣💥🫢💥😊💥Nah🤣
The Website Republican Accountability project has every gop in congress.
So far only Austin Scott us not a election denier & hot a ‘ D’ on the Democracy score.
All the rest are Election Deniers.
Nobody wants a RINO for speaker. That includes half of the RINOs in Cogress
That black guy knows he’s not getting elected as speaker even if he vows to send all black people back to Africa…
Republicans fault
The Rise and Fall of the Divided Sates.
3-time vote Loser and Insurrectionist Jim Jordan gave up running for speaker and his reliance on death threats didn’t pay off – Only in America.
Remember when the US was praised for Ali, Elvis & MJ. Now the US is laughed at for Orange Stupid, school shootings and pandemic mismanagement.
MAGATs believe repeating lies make it true. Let’s try it out. I’m a billionaire. Please tell me I’m billionaire to make it true. Nope not yet, say it again.
That guy pulling the alarming system not only get away from a crime, but also tiptoe the speakership, what a powerful affirmative action.
Lol that’s your comment u came up with 😮😢😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
White people and their white privilege bigots and racist
All about the white man
Lets gooooooo byron donalds babyyyyyyyyyyy
Anyone who voted against certifying the election results (voted against the will of the people) should be disqualified for the speaker position and from ever holding any elected office again.
Democrats want to play with our position? Okay, shut the government down, no aid for Israel or Ukraine, let’s see how long Ukraine lasts.
I think Byron Donalds is the man and i support him,He would be the first black speaker and thats wonderful,I like him,like his policies and Trump does too.Good enough for me,God bless everyone.
No vote for anyone who voted against Jordan
Harmeet Dhillon for speaker
What is embarrassing is the Senate and House making insider trading legal for members but for the general public who would have less insider info than the Senate or House members it’s illegal. 🤔 You want a revolution keep showing the American people this double standard.
Which one was part of the insurrection? Part of electioms denials? Part of not certifying the elections?
Elect Scott
Self-serving idiots. Where is the concerns for constituents? Where is the concern for our country? Many American voters are going to remember these fools on election day.
WE CAN’T PUT A SPEAR CHUCKER IN THEIR THEN WE WOULD BE IN WORSE SHAPE!!!
Did you ever show up for the third grade? 🪕🐑
Bryan Donalds for Speaker of the House.
Byron
NO!!
The Dems will do a good job of vetting the candidates. They’ll be outed if they have a hidden agenda or are suspected of being an instigator of j6.
Over 80% old white men!!
A wild goose chase in the House is on-going with no end in the tunnel.
Jefry for speaker
LOL. No speaker no money for war. Brilliant.
Lol a clown show…
Can we be sure that these „politicians“ are adults?
Byron Donald’s. 🇺🇸❤️
Omg, this is hilarious. 😂😢
Rino’s..!
This shouldn’t be behind closed doors..
Here we go again…….bunch of Wannabees! How embarrassing. Should have been Jim Jorden!
Does anyone else wonder if the Republicans are doing this on purpose? Or are they just this stupid? Someone please stop this crazy bus ride, I want to get off. Come on America deserves better than this.
The real problem is the American voters that elect these clowns!!!! Vote Blue to save USA!!!
If the Cleveland Browns can win two games in a row you would think the republicans could actually get something done…..
Kevin McCarthy said on failure to pick a Speaker and quote…”This has been embarrassing to the Republicans Party”. Ah Kevin, it has been embarrassing since the Party started sucking up with the “orange hair guy”. What a “dorky”.
Notice how they’re all multi-millionaires living in some of the poorest/least educated states?
A black Republican? Crazy is obviously color blind.
What the republicans did last week they lost a patriot here and my family’s vote who care at this pint
Trump Hunt 24🇺🇸
Six of the nine are election deniers. Only Emmer, Meuser and Scott voted to certify the 2020 election. Those six are clearly unworthy of the post.
Weirdest fighting game character select screen
“Astinguisher”? I know you Christians have pathetic grammar, but come on now!
This just proves Trump isn’t getting a pardon in 2024!! WE LIVE BY LAWS
Hey fokes You shut down a part of our government because you voted Red n 2022
It’s a clown show..
Calling it a clown show is insulting to clowns
🚨 Breaking: Donald Trump announces that there “MUST” be a Government Shutdown because he is the only one who can fix it.
📢 Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa Haa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dude had a better economy than Biden. Cope
The men fought over a piece of beef in their minds. Where is the beef? You will lose to the Democratic liberal Party if you do not unite.
Republicans, they can’t govern their own political party. How do you expect them to govern the US?
WOKE: What it stands for… “Wide Open Keen Eyesight” 💎💎VOTE %100 AMERICAN! VOTE TRUE BLUE! 💎💎
Lol, cuz it’s working so well for CA NY IL etc etc etc. You have some illegals you forgot to take in
This is really hilarious or would be if it was so redicilous. George Carlin had the right idea. Our government is just like a circus
I think all Congress members should run for speaker position one at a time 😂😂🤣
Republicans need a female speaker, get those men out of there
Byron Donald by far.
The search for house speaker may be sabotaged by Democratic sympathizers. The antagonism between republicans and democrats is omnipresent.
GET RID OF THE FAKE REPUBLICANS ARE ANY OF THESE CANDIDATES THE ONES THAT VOTED AGAINST JIM JORDEN IF SO THEY SHOULD BE DISQUALIFIED FOR BETRAYING THEIR PARTY AND THE PEOPLE. RINOES ARE NOT REPUBLICONS
HOUSE OF TRADERS
They’re the reason illegal immigrants are getting more funding than Americans? 😂😂😂😂
They HAD a guy chosen! All they had to all do was agree to still want him. Easy to suspect Democrats of messing with this because they WANT the party destroyed.
…Ignoring everything the Matt Gaetz Eight did in lighting this fire or Kevin McCarthy did in handing Gaetz a box of matches in exchange for his Speakership vote in the first place…
@Daniel Freeman I don’t know any of these names. I just know from other people that the current speaker didn’t deserve to be removed and that the guy who dropped out was a GOOD choice and the guy who just now didn’t get enough votes was also a GOOD choice. Some times you just have to compromise and admit that having a “Good” leader instead of a ‘Great leader” is better then having “No Leader”
Republicans are looking for some one who won’t give in to woke ideas, some one who’s not a RINO but there are also Republicans who are willing to share in woke ideas if it gets the job done.
since bot sides refuse to give in to the other we are in a situation now where the new leader HAS to make every one happy . If enough people would just be willing to sacrifice there values and morals to let in an OK leader instead of holding out for a Perfect leader we could get this thing done.
We are so afraid that a wrong choice will lead the country down a wrong path that we can’t see that there is no wrong choice. That all Republicans even the left leaning ones all want the SAME goal just threw different methods.
We will survive whatever leader we vote in.
What is bad for the party is letting the vote not happen. This would strengthen the other party which is what they WANT.
Democrats want to see the Republican party fall part so they can be validated that there own paranoia was correct.
What they don’t realize is that Republicans also won’t ruin the nation and end Democracy and become tyrants so they are also over reacting to fear.
At the end of the day if we create a single party Government we may get things done faster but Opinions will still exist, arguments will still happen and a new party to oppose the one in power will rise.
you CAN NOT eliminate a people. Modern era Genocide is impossible. kit only takes ONE survivor of the old people to revive the culture threw breading or propaganda. The Population is too vast, to spread out, too diverse and too recorded in media to be forcedly whipped out of existence.
it only takes one book, one movie, one speech, one new baby to bring a group back.
Republican and Democrat values will ALWAYS exist if we can’t live with that fact we’ll never have a successful vote.
if we can’t admit both sides are valid and that our own side has flaws we won’t solve problems
we need to learn do see both sides as valid.
Even if the worst happens and we loose the Government and become lawless savages there WILL be a return to Law and order and centralized Government. You can not create a Lawless exitance and not face push back.
Nor can Tyranny exist with out Rebelion Nor can we ever see the push for equality and tolerance with out push back from those who want to return to the old ways.
We need to realize our solutions cause our problems. Every bad thing is a response to some one’s poorly thought out well intentioned “Good” idea People with Good ideas don’t see there negative consequences We need to see every possibility and stop fearing and just learn to adapt.
I LIKE EMMER AND DONALDS BUT IT WILL SESSIONS
Watch the all Republican men whom seems to think,that only men can become speaker, i guess the women are irrelevant. Interesting 🤔🤔😂
What is a woman? Dylan mulvaney won woman of the Year twice 😂 cope
Dan Meuser from Pennsylvania voted to overturn the election. He will not be Speaker of the House.
Should put a Indigenous person on the sit.
“The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”
Spending the country into oblivion is also insane
🔥Super cool vid and TY for breaking it down. I’m favoured, $15,000 weekly trade earnings even in this current economic downturn. So excited
OK, thanks🙏
After accumulating $18k in a week with Regina Jossie, my passion in trading business was revived. if I can put in more work and resources, I see trading as a way to overcome poverty
I am constantly amazed by the amount of profit I’ve made over the last couple weeks trading with Regina Jossie. I have earned a lot.
Regina Jossie has brought me out of wrenches and to be a better living through trading options I encourage newbies to trade with her
Regina Jossie has brought me out of wretched, I invested as little as 2,833$ and my profits are 6,840$/week
Only Jordon!!!!
Law makes use their vote as leverage to get something that’s totally unrelated to the speaker of house. Absolutely appalling. Basically their votes can be bought.
Hopefully someone with a smidgen of ethics (if there still is such a thing nowadays) will be elected
No Jim Jordan . Well that’s speaks volume . God forbid Integrity ! Of course not Jim . Can’t buy Jim so he’s out ! Not surprised . Let’s see what happens when we elect President . Nothing as usual because it’s all rigged ! What a wonderful world full of rainbows unicorns and Death everywhere! Great time to puke !
The GOP MAGA are like a 5-year-olds with a bad report card from the kindergarten teacher; “Yells and screams at story telling time if he doesn’t like the story and tries to keep other children from hearing. Yells and screams at naptime if he doesn’t want to take a nap and tries to get the other children from sleeping. Breaks things and tries to blame other children for his wrong doing. Will not work together with other children and tries to take other children’s toys and snacks for himself.”
They should run the black guy. Have those racist democrats vote against him
The Democrats will be voting for Hakeem Jeffries. Your racebaiting will not work here, MAGA loser.
Just a question?
How do we trust any of them after the mess they have already created?
You don’t. You vote them out.
Don’t trust whoever is supported by Kevin McCarthy to become the speaker of the House
They all look the same to me.
Same hair do.
Same suits.
Same fancy dentists.
Same male chauvinist pigs.
Same fascists
The Conservatives in the UK had a huge majority and flushed it up and now the Republicans are doing the same.
Emmers is garbage..they have no quality candidates..
To serve and protect the best interests of law-abiding citizens of America, the GOP need to elect a Christian conservative leader as Speaker who will lead Congress in the right direction with divine knowledge, intelligence, and wisdom as one nation under God.
You are the problem! Oh yes, it’s too dangerous right now! Of course it’s dangerous…After all, If you don’t work for your Daddy the Devil…You’ll be like some of us, living in Truth and the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ…Keep it up please, you’re accelerating your own demise and the culmination of the Truth…for we and God knows, only He can stop it! and we might fall, but it will be in His Gracean Truth… Men are appointed once to die and after this! “The judgement”. Wake up America!
Look at all the narscissits
the Irony.. .those who dont trust voting are unable to finish a vote themselves
Actually, I think it’s a healthy thing to NOT follow the crowd like tamed sheep. It appears that no one is being threatened, coerced, or bought off like the Democrats do. It shows potentially different styles of leadership, different approaches to issues, and negotiation skills, That’s America, that’s what I believe the public wants.
Trey could get all the Republicans to vote for him if they throw his name in.
Republicans needgo to Kim Go ugan, the money person, and say, “If we elect Trey Gowdy as Speaker and Rand Paul as Senate Majority Leader, and we get rid of B iden and Harris who is not a natural born citizen, will you then give us the money?”
