0:00.0 | Once again, good afternoon, everyone, and welcome back to another episode of Red Pill News and a historic day in the House of Representatives as another round |
0:23.0 | of voting begins for these people coming together trying to determine who will be the next |
0:28.1 | speaker of the House. Spoiler alert, it's not going to be Kevin McCarthy. Today we are going to be |
0:33.3 | discussing this in detail. So do me a favor, sit back, relax, grab your popcorn, and get ready |
0:39.6 | because we're going to be right back after this. All right, guys, welcome back. Thank you for sticking |

1:31.7 | They will keep going up there and doing the exact same thing, expecting a different result. |
1:36.1 | They will leave that vote. |
1:37.3 | They will go backstage. |
1:38.5 | They will wrangle. |
1:39.3 | They will try to get the people who didn't vote for Kevin McCarthy to vote for him the next time. |
1:43.7 | And that can conceivably carry on until Kevin McCarthy gets 218 votes. |
