BREAKING: Steve Scalise Wins Secret Ballot For Speaker Nomination as Republicans Buck Trump's Endorsement
The Republican Caucus remains in disarray

Louisiana Congressman Steve Scalise has won the Republican nomination for Speaker of the House after the party held a secret vote. The vote was 113-99 in favor of Scalise.

Scalise was running for the nomination against Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan. Although Scalise won the secret vote, the Speaker race is far from finished. It remains unclear whether Scalise can get the votes needed from the Republican caucus during a full vote of the House of Representatives.

Significantly, House Republicans bucked the endorsement of former President Donald Trump who just last week endorsed Jim Jordan for Speaker.

Kevin McCarthy is too pathetic even for a RINO for Speaker of the House. He had leverage over Joe Biden and all he can do is shave off a tiny $2 billion out of $87 billion allocated for IRS auditors which was not needed? He had to grow a pair to even challenge the IRS auditor budget? At a minimum, he should have demanded it be totally scrapped in exchange for the blank check policy on Ukraine which he and Joe Biden both supported. He folded like a cheap suit when it counted. I hope the next Speaker actually, tackles the $30 trillion budget deficit and demand actual cuts from the Democrats.
