1. Looks like it could be

unless we get lucky and enough Republicans get stuck in an elevator and miss the vote. (Sorry, shouldn't have left the floor.)

[Renew Deal]

2. lol

Can you imagine if Gaetz gets stuck in the elevator? The squatter in the speakers office wouldn't have anything to do with it.

3. Seems Likely

He only needs 1 to vote for him and another to vote Present. He obviously knew all along that eventually it would go his way. As usual, we all got our hopes up that it would drag on, but it wasn't meant to be.

4. Yes. n/t

[Walleye]

5. Watch Boebert after she switches her vote, bask in the applause

I’ll probably be going to bed I don’t need to be in at the kill

[Marius25]

6. Looks likely. I think several of those 6 caved and will at least vote present

[Hortensis]

7. Right. Both Bobert and Gaetz indicated to Fox

that McCarthy would be the next speaker. I’m certainly with those who don’t need to skip a nice old movie to watch easily buyable people switch.

Biggs and some other tougher opponents walked in together without talking to anyone. Still, it’s not over til it’s over.

8. Oh, saw "indicated" as "indicted"
