from the Abraham Lincoln radio studio at the George Washington Broadcast

Center.

The Armstrong and Gettyshow.

Somebody's going to nominate Kevin McCarthy here in the next couple of minutes.

And then they're going to give him a chance.

And they're going to start voting.

So I talked earlier about there was talk of a deal overnight and some of the framework

was leaked out by somebody.

By the way, that's one of the reasons he hasn't been able to get more of those 20 holdouts

to come to his side.

So he negotiated with some of them.

They promised to keep it secret.

And those people get up in the morning and read about it in the paper and think his side

leaked it and thought, we can't trust you.

That's why we don't like you.

And so anyway, there's no deal yet.

So there's no reason to think that this 12th vote coming up here in a few minutes will

not have exactly the same results as the previous ones.

Not by the way that I think this is a big deal.

This will get worked out and somebody will be speaker.

The fact that the Republicans have a very slim majority and you got a whole bunch of

burn it down nihilists who are willing to vote against everything, that is a big deal
