    Trump And Allies Doom Latest GOP Speaker Nominee, GOP Regroups

    Trump And Allies Doom Latest GOP Speaker Nominee, GOP Regroups
    "I have many wonderful friends wanting to be Speaker of the House, and some are truly great Warriors. RINO Tom Emmer, who I do not know well, is not one of them," Donald Trump said in a post on his platform Truth Social.

    Emmer, a Minnesota Republican and former head of the House GOP's campaign arm, withdrew from the race soon thereafter after failing to garner support roughly 20 firm detractors.

    The conference will now regroup in an effort to find a new path forward.

    This episode: campaign correspondent Sarah McCammon, congressional correspondent Claudia Grisales, and congressional correspondent Deirdre Walsh.

    The podcast is produced by Casey Morell and Elena Moore. Our editor is Eric McDaniel. Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi.

    With Jim Jordan Out, What Does The Latest Failed Speaker Bid Mean For Republicans?

    With Jim Jordan Out, What Does The Latest Failed Speaker Bid Mean For Republicans?
    Ever since Kevin McCarthy was ousted as Speaker of the House by only eight members of Congress, things have been pretty messy in the chamber.

    Ohio Republican Jim Jordan tried and failed to rally support for his nomination. After losing three ballots on the House floor and a secret Republican-only vote, he's out.

    Not having a speaker has essentially shut down the business of governing, and House Republicans have no consensus on a candidate.

    Host Scott Detrow speaks with NPR's Congressional Correspondent Deirdre Walsh and Political Correspondent Susan Davis about the ongoing speaker battle and what comes next.

    With McCarthy Out What's Next for Republicans in the House?
    It took just eight Republicans, voting with Democrats, to oust Kevin McCarthy from the House speakership. His removal may have been unprecedented, but for several years now the Republican caucus in the House of Representatives has been marked by chaos and unruliness. The job to lead them seems increasingly impossible.

    NPR's Ari Shapiro speaks with Rep. Matt Rosendale, of Montana, who was one of the eight Republicans to vote for McCarthy's removal. Co-host Juana Summers speaks with NPR Congressional Correspondent Deirdre Walsh about the challenge Republicans face to replace McCarthy.
