DISARRAY!!!
The chef's kiss would be if they were from Jerry's Subs & Pizza.
Also, no one has ever used a chef's kiss to describe Jerry's.

Not going to lie — I’ve built some consensus for an idea before by providing free pizza and making co-workers come to me for it. Smart move, McCarthy.

I can't find the tweet, but word is until they elect a speaker and are able to sit the congress, nobody gets paid…
Super strong old man vs. clouds energy with this one: How did politics get so awful? I blame MTV circa 1992

I can't find the citation, but the number of congresspeople who rely on their $174,000 annual salary to pay their electric bill approaches zero.

well it would also effect staffers as well
and there was the whole story about Maxwell Frost who was having a hard time finding an apartment in DC due to bad credit even with his future earnings
I believe I read it also effects the page's student loan relief/tuition assistance or something like that.

voting suspended for today. rumors that scalise will throw his hat in for R4.
Dems are in a rock-solid array (crystalline?).
this morning, trump made a plea for repubs to support mccarthy. result:
FOURTH round:
Jeffries (D) - 212
McCarthy (R) - 201
Donalds (R) - 20
Present - 1
FIFTH round:
identical to fourth round. IDENTICAL. hey kevin, maybe this isn't working? time for something else?
boobert just called for trump to tell mccarthy to step aside… honey, i need to talk to you about unka donald… he's not who he claims to be (anymore)
sixth round incoming.
heard a GOP'er on NPR this morning saying he didn't care that this infighting makes them look bad, because he saw the damage as temporary. voters will have forgotten all of this by 2024, "and they'll remember all our upcoming legislative successes". awfully optimistic of him thinking this group can agree on legislation.
the eating of their own continues unabated: Matt Gaetz calls Donald Trump's support of Kevin McCarthy 'sad'
does the FDA have a "max popcorn daily intake" recommendation? 'cause i fear i'm approaching mine, but like hell i'm putting it down.
