Back in the U.S., far-right Republican Jim Jordan lost his second floor vote to become House speaker Wednesday, receiving just 199 votes, one fewer than the first round of voting a day earlier. It was the first time in 100 years that the majority nominee received less than 200 votes. Jordan is a close ally of Trump and was involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. He has been accused of ignoring accusations of sexual abuse against an Ohio State University physician by members of the wrestling team when Jordan was an assistant wrestling coach at the school in the 1980s and ’90s. Congressmembers are voting again today, as Jordan vowed to “keep going.” The House has been at a legislative standstill since Kevin McCarthy was ousted over two weeks ago.
