After a third day of voting and 11 rounds of roll call with no real change, the Republican Party still hasn’t managed to elect a speaker, MAGA-infused conservative hardliners are holding the House hostage and Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) is still trying to convince everyone that he can pull of some sort of deal.
We reported that there might be some light at the end of the GOP division tunnel for McCarthy this morning. But it seems that taking that with a grain of salt was the right advice.

We’ll see you back here tomorrow morning. Catch up on our live coverage throughout the day today below:
