Kevin McCarthy loses 6th vote for Speaker

[Angrboda]

I’m starting to wonder if they could just briefly expel the Freedom Caucus. Not even forever, just for long enough to actually get anywhere on a vote. It’s probably not, but short of convincing 5 republicans to vote for Hakeem Jeffries just so they can get on with their lives, it might be the only way anyone gets anywhere.

That would require conducting House business, which they can't do until they elect a speaker.
