Yes! Several house members switch their vote for McCarthy in the 11th round. Let's go!

They are throwing him a bone while they continue to work through the framework if the concessions.

From what I've read, that may take though the weekend...but maybe tonight.

This signals that the framework deal seems on the surface acceptable.

Big win for the Freedom Caucus.
Yep, it really does not matter who the mouthpiece for the gop is.
 
From 8am this morning...

"Lawmakers said the framework gives members of the House Freedom Caucus (HFC) who have been resisting McCarthy virtually everything they’ve been asking for. That includes a stronger HFC representation on key House committees, guardrails aimed at curbing excessive federal spending, and allowing just a single member of the House to make a motion to replace the speaker, lawmakers familiar with the framework told Fox News.


Huge win for the Freedom Caucus.
 
213 goes to mr. McC.

He still hasn't sold the rest of his farm.

He needs to try that to see if any of the 200 will desert his sinking ship?

His last concession is in letting Matt or Klan mother hold his gavel.

Good stuff!
 
More from the article...

"HFC (House Freedom Caucus) Chair Rep.-elect Scott Perry of Pennsylvania tweeted late Thursday that time would be needed to assess what's before them. "We're at a Reagan moment – ‘trust but verify,’" he wrote. "The devil is in the details, and we'll take our time to ensure it's right, not easy. One way or another, the status quo must go.

<Snip>

With such a slim GOP margin in the new House, Republicans will probably need everyone back before voting on McCarthy, and that makes a vote next week seem likely. Some of McCarthy's most vocal opponents, such as Reps.-elect Matt Gaetz of Florida and Bob Good of Florida, are never expected to support him."

Got to make sure all the i's are dotted and the t's are crossed to make sure the Freedom Caucus is actually getting everything they want.

I for one couldn't be happier. This is the absolute best that could have reasonably been expected.

According to Bobert, this is pretty much the deal that she and others came to McCarthy with months ago, and he scoffed them out of the room.

A "win" is only a win if you can trust the guy, which you can't.
 
Sounds like a bad deal, if true.
giving you the least likely to work towards making things work better, Finding, searching, for solutions for the many. Not a select group of totally one sided inflexible PARTY OVER COUNTRY, Limited unhealthy goal people.

It's nothing but a circus stunt to us snow Meskins!
But it's a pity that Matt and Klan mom will be left standing out in the cold when McC wins.

Or will those two critters get on the bus too at the last minute?

213 is enough for a win if the rest of the Freedom Caucus vote present ... lowering the threshold of victory.

You're seeing a signal here.

They're going to let him win by one vote.
 
While not letting him reach 218 as they promised.
Did they promise that? From what I've read there are some who have consistently stated they will not vote for him. Even the article I'm quoting from says...

"Some of McCarthy's most vocal opponents, such as Reps.-elect Matt Gaetz of Florida and Bob Good of Florida, are never expected to support him."

So I'm not sure where you are getting that.

They are getting concessions to give him enough votes to become Speaker.

One vote is enough.
