Description
After failing well short of the necessary 217 votes, Rep. Jim Jordan
scrambled yesterday to rescue his campaign for House speaker. But with a
whopping 20 members of his own party breaking ranks, he's got serious
work to do ahead of a second floor vote scheduled for 11 a.m. today.
Playbook co-author Rachael Bade and Editor Mike DeBonis discuss whether
Jordan has any hope of salvaging his bid for the gavel and what might
happen if he can't. Plus, a hospital attack in Gaza leaves hundreds dead
and complicates President Biden’s trip to the Middle East. That, plus
all the news you need to know today.
