House reconvenes in last-ditch effort to select speaker before week ends

Usa news: Two years after the U.S. Capitol was stormed by a violent mob of former President Donald Trump’s supporters, the House GOP is in turmoil as Republicans struggle to elect a House speaker.

Meanwhile, the legacy of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack, will be marked Friday in remembrances by President Joe Biden and others.
House speaker election drags on: A group of Republican defectors led by the ultra-conservative House Freedom Caucus have stymied the election of a House speaker by refusing to vote for the party’s House leader, Rep. Kevin McCarthy. He lost an 11th vote for the speaker role Thursday night.
House GOP agenda on hold until speaker chosen: After two years of Democratic control in both chambers, allowing for an 18-month congressional investigation into the Capitol attack, the GOP has vowed to fight back on narratives around the Jan. 6, 2021, attack, COVID-19 and Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden. But without a speaker of the House, the party remains in political purgatory.
