Welcome to the beat everyone.

I am Ari Melber and we begin here where the whole country is Kevin McCarthy's losing

streak in a third day.

Now 10 consecutive defeats, 10 loss votes in the humiliation that's come with that here

in front of the whole nation.

Tonight we begin with how we got here because everyone's been absorbing the days now of

chaos, headlines about the failure of the Republican majority to get its work started

in its new Congress.

The story that really goes beyond politics and it's reaching people who don't always

follow the swearing in or the speaker's race.

So if you approach this with fresh eyes as many Americans have saying what's going on

over there, you might actually wonder why the big and chaotic fight right now that continues

with these rolling losses for Republicans, why is it happening at the finish line of a

win for the GOP in the midterms?

And why is the big fight in Washington within one party, not between what are the typically

warring factions, between parties?

Well, there are many factors, but three reasons loom large.

First, a crop of Republicans who are more focused on hijacking than governing.

Second, this Trump Internet Industrial Complex that puts the content, the trolling, all

the Internet theatrics above the real world we live in.

And third, the sheer math in the Republican party's red fizzle, this November, no wave,

no large majority, no way, to mathematically overwhelm this band of now effective hijackers.
