The 119th Congress convenes Friday as embattled Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) fights to keep his gavel after 14 rocky months.
The House will meet at noon and must elect a Speaker before conducting any official business, legislative or otherwise. Members cannot be sworn in until after the Speaker is elected. The House cannot officially adopt its rules package either.
The Speaker must receive a majority of votes of the entire House chamber. With former Rep. Matt Gaetz not expected to take his seat, 219 Republicans will be expected to 215 Democrats. Johnson can only lose one Republican vote, if all Democrats vote for another candidate as expected.
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) has made clear he will vote against Johnson come hell or high water. Johnson cannot lose another vote.

I'm hitting them hard on Truth Social. You don't eject the 2nd Speaker in 12 months, unless you have Speaker #3 already approved. Makes you look like spoiled brats.
Will this new Congress accomplish anything without major Democrat Red Herrings and Deflections and MSM lies?

That's ok, she will blame the person working the teleprompter. She should not have been expected to memorize something that long.

Jeffries squawking now about all the problems in the U.S. He want's people to think Democrats didn't cause any 🤣
He's Listing every problem caused by The Biden Administration.
SHAME: After four years of pretending these Biden-induced problems didn't exist, deranged lunatic Hakeem Jeffries suddenly now thinks it's time to "lower the high cost of living" and "secure our borders."

Kamala is depressed over having to certify on January 6th that Donald Trump beat her.
