set to hold the seventh vote for speaker of the house, but within the past, hour the house voted to adjourn, to close up shop for the night and come back tomorrow, because why not check this thing out another day. now that vote to adjourn was on par with the rest of the chaos and confusion that as characterized this entire speaker debacle. majority of republicans voted to end the session and wait until tomorrow, while all democrats voted to keep the session going. but since right now neither party controls the house voting process, the whole vote turned into what might politely be called a go rodeo. there was yelling, cries of foul play from democrats over the fact that several republicans were allowed to change their votes after the clock ran out. and this, at the age of 216. the nays are 214. accordingly the motion is adopted. accordingly, the house stands adjourned until noon, tomorrow. and the end, and to mccarthy republicans, the never kevin caucus, sided with pro
