This is a gift link, so should work for everyone.

Representative Tom Emmer of Minnesota, the No. 3 House Republican, dropped his bid for speaker on Tuesday hours after securing his divided party’s nomination, after a swift backlash from the right, including former President Donald J. Trump, left his candidacy in shambles.

Guy lasted like 4hrs as the nominee. Didn't even get a vote on the House floor before dropping out.

23 days til the government shuts down.

Would love to see the schism in the GOP become official, and watch them break into two smaller parties that constantly bicker with each other instead of enacting shit policy.
