McCarthy. Biggs. Jordan?
The race for Speaker is on and the GOP is having trouble finding a consensus on just who the gavel should go to. California Republican Kevin McCarthy is the front-runner, with Arizona Rep. Andy Biggs running as well.
But at least one Republican thinks Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan should be Speaker.
According to a repor from The Hill, “Gaetz, who has repeatedly spoken out against House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) taking up the Speaker’s gavel, followed up that tweet with another on Sunday asking his followers to encourage Jordan to run for top House spot.”
Merry Christmas to all!

“The Florida lawmaker has previously supported Jordan for the post, telling Fox News in August that Jordan was the ‘hardest-working’ and the ‘most talented member’ in his more conservative base,” The Hill adds.
All I want for Christmas is @Jim_Jordan to realize he should be Speaker of the House!
