| 0:00.0 | And the We start today with the continued chaos in the Republican Party, still no Speaker of the |
| 0:21.4 | House after yet another vote Jim Jordan has lost |
| 0:25.8 | and reports of other Republican members of the house coming to his office and |
| 0:29.6 | saying it's not going to be you Jim it's simply not going to be you remember that this all |
| 0:35.0 | started when a small number eight members of the Republican Party which is in the |
| 0:40.0 | majority in the House of Representatives decided they didn't want Kevin McCarthy |
| 0:44.2 | a speaker anymore. They joined Democrats in a vote to remove him. Since then |
| 0:49.7 | there have been a number of different directions that this path has taken. |
| 0:54.3 | One was the direction of Steve Scalise, although Scalise then ultimately said I'm removing myself for consideration. |

| 1:38.8 | when it comes to how these outrageous radical Republicans who abandoned policy completely |
| 1:43.8 | should be dealt with. Of course Democrats are in the minority so unless |
| 1:47.2 | somehow Republicans get involved in helping Hakeem Jeffries he also won't be the |
| 1:51.1 | Speaker of the House. So where are we now in a new week? |
| 1:54.3 | Well, where we are as Axios reports is that there are now nine people, nine people |
| 2:00.8 | running for Speaker of the House for the Republicans. Those nine members are |
| 2:05.4 | Tom Emmer, Mike Johnson, Kevin Hearn, Byron Donald's, Pete Sessions, Jack Bergman, Austin Scott, Daniel Muser, and Gary Palmer. |
