It makes no sense to appoint an interim speaker if all they can do is conduct a vote for a Speaker. What's the point? They already have that with the pro tem position. I'm willing to wait for the dust to settle but I think the NYT analysis of the situation is wrong.
Good point. What it seems to me is 1) this is perfect to keep the house from doing much of anything, think declare war or sent more us tax dollars out of the country
Or 2) McHenry is a Rino and his powers will be expanded so Pelosi et al. can still call the shots
