But Jordan and Rogers spoke over the weekend and Rogers is now in the camp of Jordan.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/leading-moderate-who-vowed-oppose-jordan-flips-major-victory-speaker-nominee\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>LEADING MODERATE WHO VOWED TO OPPOSE JORDAN FLIPS IN MAJOR VICTORY FOR SPEAKER NOMINEE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The support from Rogers could be seismic in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/congress\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this Speaker\u2019s contest<\/a>. Many defense hawks were worried about Jordan\u2019s spending plans and how it may adversely slash defense. But Rogers and Jordan now appear to be on the same page. The backing of Rogers could bring along a number of other defense hawks into Jordan\u2019s camp.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan definitely made headway over the weekend as he tries to narrow his deficit.<\/p>\n<p>But, it\u2019s about the math. And the math remains challenging for Jordan.<\/p>\n<p>Forcing a roll call vote on the floor tomorrow is a tactic by Jordan. But it\u2019s a gamble. Jordan could win. But it also lays bear how many members oppose him if Jordan loses on the floor. Remember <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/elections\/republicans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">that House Republicans<\/a> wanted to avoid another spectacle on the floor of burning through roll call vote after roll call vote, ala January, before finally electing former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/a-mess-preventing-one-shutdown-caused-house-shut-down\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>A MESS, OR HOW PREVENTING ONE SHUTDOWN CAUSED THE HOUSE TO SHUT DOWN<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>However, THAT may be EXACTLY what Jordan wants.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Jordan effectively wants to DARE Republicans to vote against him on the floor. He wants to see which Republicans are willing to vote against him and then turn up the outrage machine and the hand of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">former President Trump<\/a> against those Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>This tactic is risky because it may reveal just how close to winning Jordan is \u2013 or demonstrate the deficit.<\/p>\n<p>If Jordan is 20 or fewer votes short, he\u2019s probably in play. But if it\u2019s north of that, it may take a lot to ever get Jordan elected as Speaker.<\/p>\n<p>That said, Republicans may start to direct anger at Jordan for trying to smoke out Members on the floor who are opposed to Jordan. As one source said to Fox, the strategy by Jordan to put pressure on skeptical Republicans to oppose him on the floor &#8220;is a card best threatened and not played.&#8221; Such a tactic could in fact drive some support AWAY from Jordan\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/hawley-taps-doj-investigate-pro-palestinian-student-groups-potential-ties-hamas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>HAWLEY TAPS DOJ TO INVESTIGATE PRO-PALESTINIAN STUDENT GROUPS&#8217; POTENTIAL TIES TO HAMAS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This will come down to a battle of the wills. How long is Jordan willing to push the envelope and call vote after vote after vote?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s a pressure cooker if we go to the floor,&#8221; said one senior Republican.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If it\u2019s a game of chicken, the crazy people win,&#8221; said one Republican source. Fox was told that Jordan was inclined to continue to call for votes in an effort to wear down his opponents.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, do not underestimate the level of antipathy for Jordan which has even developed over the past few days.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What he did to (House Majority Leader) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/steve-scalise\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Steve Scalise<\/a> (R-La.) is unforgiving and disqualifying,&#8221; said one angry House GOPer to Fox who opposes Jordan.<\/p>\n<p>So, it\u2019s possible Jordan could win the Speakership tomorrow. He\u2019s certainly a little closer than the other day. But the raw opposition from some Republicans to Jordan could mean we\u2019re in for a continued, pitched battle this week.<\/p>\n<p>And as always, it will boil down to the math.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/hitchhikers-guide-speakers-election-over-next-24-36-hours\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/hitchhikers-guide-speakers-election-over-next-24-36-hours <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) scored a major win this morning as House Armed Services Committee Chairman Mike Rogers (R-Ala.) reversed himself and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-82445","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
