What was our favorite part about last night? Was it Kevin McCarthy having to walk up to Matt Gaetz and beg him for his vote? (Matt ended up voting "present," lol.) The Republican fist fight that nearly broke out afterward? Katie Porter reading a pointedly titled book? The puckish tweets of Congressman Jamie Raskin? The fact that McCarthy saluted Benedict Donald? (Thanks for the reminder, Kev — way to get those suburban mom votes in 2024!)
Nope, all those things were delicious, but best of all was the valedictory speech by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. He completely upstaged a chagrined McCarthy, who was forced to stand at the side and listen. One more humiliation for the soulless, empty man from California. Go, Hakeem, go! Speaker-in-waiting — and it won't take 15 ballots to do it. We cats PURR.
(UPDATE: Here's the "alphabet portion" of the Jeffries speech. The GOP is so not ready for this guy. We cats PURR again.)
