House Republicans killed a motion that would try to change the rules to prevent a multiple round voting process, like that seen during the vote to elect former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. NBC News’ Julie Tsirkin reports on Republicans’ meeting to decide between Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise and Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan as their new leader.

China/Russia could move on us right now. These idiots are a THREAT to national security right now
One again our elected politicians will show us how incompetent they are!!!
Democrat corruption runs so deep it makes Democrats above the law. They don’t even have to try to hide their corruption because they know nothing will be done.
Republicans are so weak and so incompetent, they can’t get anything done.
We need term limits and we need to vote everyone who currently holds office out!!!
Scalise is McCarthy in a different suit
What a circus 🎪
NO ONE THAT WANTS WARS!!!!!
People yall worried about biden age and dems. This is young and dumb at work ok. I dont care if biden was a 100, he got my vote. With biden we can finally get voting rights, john lewis, stop gerrymandering, end the filibuster, get roe into law, and protect our demarcrocy, vote, and constitution. Thats all that matter. With trump and maga, if Republicans win, we lose it all. They will end elections, voting and change the constitution so they can stay in office for ok. They wont leave, this will be our last vote. Yall better wake and vote blue to vote again. Save our demarcrocy from insanity, blue wave
Jim Jordan didn't win? It's almost like being Trump's official boot licker doesn't help your political career…
Send in the clowns… 🤡
Meaningless.GOP is meaningless.
They were NOT voting on a speaker. That reporter had her facts wrong (usual for the msm).
scalise is just another rubber stamp rino like mccarthy which is why the dems and their pet republican rino's want him in there
Very disappointed that Jim Jordan didn't win!!
This is pure GOP anarchy, sabotaging government, then complaining government doesn't work. An embarrassment in front of the world, DANGEROUSLY aids and abets our enemies, from Putin to Hamas, N. Korea, China and beyond. What a ^%#^%#$ embarrassing NEEDLESS mess!
Jim Jordan is the right person!!!!
What Should Israel Do Next in Light of Their Declaration of War?
First, we should reflect deeply upon the painful divide that has festered among us, causing the devastating toll of hundreds of lives lost and thousands wounded. We need to yearn for a major change and wholeheartedly unite as one. Only the bonds of unity can shield us from future tragedy and elevate our nation from the abyss of despair.
We cannot afford to nurse bitterness or delay action, waiting for the war's end to ponder our fractured state. Now is the time for introspection. We need to pinpoint the reasons behind our present circumstances and act accordingly.
Our quest for understanding needs to extend to our lives’ very source: the upper force of love, bestowal and connection that acts on us beyond our current level of awareness, which perceives through an egoistic and divisive lens. It is no matter of religion, but a realization that reality’s governing force is singular, and we accordingly need to stand united before it as one.
Precisely in our trying times, we are in need for an expansion of consciousness to let the upper force of love and bestowal into our lives. We need to raise the pain and anguish that erupts in so many people in such times to the upper force, and wish for it to mend our torn relations, and draw us closer together. We must seek to hold each other close to our hearts, not solely in times of war, but as an enduring duty.
We are a nation established not on a biological foundation, but on a spiritual-ideological one: "Love your neighbor as yourself." That is, we were people from all around ancient Babylon who felt a problem with living our lives solely according to competitive-materialistic ideals and sought for a higher truth to our existence, which we revealed as a higher force of love, bestowal and connection that united us above our divisive drives. That is why we cannot remain divided without suffering from our separation.
Our mission to unite above our divisions is constant, because divisive egoistic desires constantly surface within us, driving us apart. Therefore, much like a diligent student who finds new homework awaiting them each day, we should not accumulate any more overdue assignments that end up exploding in our faces, pressuring us into critical situations such as the one we now find before us. Instead, we should hurry up and correct our hearts to favor unity “as one man with one heart” above our divisions.
Put Jim Gordon as speaker of the house.
Man its like republicans are only in it for themselves.
Why would Israel be his first order of business? His first order of business should be America and impeaching Biden. I like Israel but what goea on there isnt our problem. What goea on in Ukraine isn't our problem. Our own house needs cleaning. America First!!! Trump 2024!!!!
The Biden regime used the house speaker being vacated, the Palestinians are using weapons from Afghanistan.
Once they do select the next NON-Speaker….which will not repair the USofA. The REPS have made sure of that by dismantling America's freedoms. VOTE for FREEDOM🗽1st PLEASE🆗 & Thank U 🧢🙋🏼♀
Republican party needs to get there act together, iam really Considering a third party
Get off your lazy duffs and drop the act. Oh it takes sooo long.
Jim Jordan
Republicans are NOT A GOOD CHOICE AT THIS TIME
RINO Scalise will win speaker with deep state backing, the USSA is totally corrupt.
I'm for Jordan
Why is it so difficult for you Republicans to gather as a group and decide who is to be speaker. Dems stick together you Reps stand apart. 15 rounds with Mc Carthy very embarrassing. Make a decision, I am a Rep. And you drive me crazy with not taking action to get things done.
Hakeem Jeffries for speaker!!!
House stand back and stand by for the 50 votes to not elect anyone! The GQP is such a joke!!!
Ship of fools.
Ha ha Marxist Pravda NBC gets it wrong again
🇺🇸United States must CLOSE ALL the borders. Protect the United States FIRST. Open your eyes and WAKE UP! Evil is already inside the US. 😢
the most horrible people and thing to ever exist
Jim jordan should be it. Steve is ill at this time. And needs to concentrate on his health. Americans want the border closed. Enough sleeper cells here. They keep ignoring this. American border is a national security threat.
Take your sweet sweet sweet time electing a new Speaker.
Trump has all the Republicans fight each other and creating chaos in the house .
Republicans are paralyzed? Is this new? 😎
Behind closed doors. Don't want AMERICA to see the clown show. And you can bet it's corrupt. VOTE BLUE STAY TRUE TO AMERICA 🇺🇸.
Why do Republicans support Israel but not Ukraine?
Probably has nothing to do with being pro-Putin, I'm sure. 🙄
Don't hold your breath… We're all aware republicans are incapable of doing anything productive…
They will drag their feet and then it will be the shutdown again not to mention that 2 war's are going on and a senator that's holding up military promotions.
