This week, following the declination of both Jom Jordan and (), Mike Jonson it had been quite questionable whether Johnson would succeed ion the attempt at securing 217 House votes. Thus far, --over the last two weeks--neither of the Republican nominees have succeeded in taking the coveted crown.
A typical Republican, Johnson has opposed abortion and has stood staunchly by the side of the former President Donald trump and the trump gaggle of cronies. Johnson has remained a suspect, however, not indicted, in the ongpoing trials associated with RICO violations.
Today, Johnson won the House vote with an unwavering approval by House Repunlicans. Johnson's vote-in might have staggering success to most who have followed the last weeks of activities and those of the failures of other nominees. Johnson, an Evangelical Christian, won the Speaker post with an overwhelming vote of 412 to 10.
Now, as the House reconvenes with the significant leadership, the time will avail itself to the US Congress entering a vote on a bill involving Israel aid. Basing the next decisions that will be made involving the Israel-Hamas war, the House is expected to approve with a reasonably favorable bi-partisan decision.
