Two Republicans have already failed to get the votes needed to win the gavel. And on Tuesday morning, eight new candidates will be voted on in a secret ballot to try for the chance to fail all over again. I don't just mean fail to get the roughly 217 votes that will be needed on the floor to become speaker, though that particular failure does seems likely. More generally, I mean fail at uniting the Republican caucus, which has already toppled Speaker Kevin McCarthy of California and rejected Majority Leader Steve Scalise of Louisiana and Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan of Ohio. I mean fail at passing legislation that can make it through the House and be signed into law. And failing at the very job of being speaker is what McCarthy did before being stripped of his office.   This is a preview of Hayes Brown's latest article. Read the full column here.
