Summary
Bryan Lanza, a senior adviser to Donald Trump, predicted House Speaker Mike Johnson’s imminent downfall, citing a “strong probability” he won’t survive the first vote.
Lanza noted Trump's limited success in influencing Republican lawmakers, referencing failed efforts with Jim Jordan.
Former Trump counsel May Mailman expressed more optimism, suggesting Johnson could barely secure enough votes.
The GOP's ongoing infighting during what should be a "honeymoon" period highlights party divisions, with critics offering no clear alternatives to Johnson's leadership.
Oh...politically, they mean
Fucking click bait titles
They tempted me with a good time.
Nazis do have a long history of murdering each other for power

As much as I'd like to see Johnson out of the speaker's seat, they're only going to replace him with someone even worse.
As is tradition...
Just in: Hulk Hogan to become new speaker of the House.
Brother
As was foretold by prophecy
Imagine this party trying to replace someone with someone actually better for Americans. It's almost unheard of.
We'll get Speaker of the House Elon Musk before GTA 6
Or just cut to the chase and install Putin. That’s where Trump and Elon get their marching orders anyway. So much inefficiency in Elon’s “department of efficiency”
Watching C-Span. Going for first vote. Voice vote by member. I'm saying the first one will be a tie.
I was in a school group where we'd have a mock state government over a weekend in the official chambers. When there was a voice vote both sides would yell as loud as possible to make it sound like their side had more support. Invariably this led to a paper vote.
Does this happen in actual Congress?
Yes lol
The House rarely takes a voice vote by member. Each members name is called and they respond on who they vote for. This kind of vote only happens when speaker's are elected. There are verbal votes taken by the house as a group, with times as you describe. At that point, the side that is shouted down makes a motion for the yeas and nays. This makes all the members vote, now by electronic ballot
yeah. most things at their core follow the same rules so almost every thing has roll call votes and such. that cable channel that would play goings on with the house and senate would have like an hour span were it was name called out followed by their vote and they have an electronic system so it was being done even though the votes have no discrepency in count.
got my hopes up with the headline
