Congrats Mike for getting this far. Congrats Jeffries (and Joe) for supporting and whatever nod-nod-wink-wink you had to do with Mike.

After the bills pass, I really want MTG to start the vacate process. I assume the Dems will support Mike and the vacate motion will fail. But it'll be fun watching the dysfunction for another week or two (and a reminder to the voters).

HouseÂ*passesÂ*key procedural vote on foreign aid bills, setting up final vote Saturday | CNN Politics

The House voted Friday in a bipartisan manner to advance a key foreign aid package, a significant step in sending aid to Ukraine and Israel and setting up a final vote as soon as Saturday.

In an extraordinary move, more Democrats (165) supported the measure than Republicans (151). The Democratic votes were necessary to overcome opposition from Speaker Mike Johnson’s right flank, who will likely only increase their calls to oust him.
