It's a real "I didn't think leopards would eat my face" moment. They were brought in to stir things up and argue against the DC elite, rather than make policy. The Republicans probably expected them to do this in the vote but only to a small extent, and thought they would have enough to get McCarthy through anyway. But their majority proved to be tiny, much smaller than expected, and the pushback was 20 (and going up) rather than the half dozen Freedom Caucasus members they expected.

The republicans opened the door to let them in, and now leopards are eating their face.

I think we can expect this to continue for the republican primaries too.

Another attempt to install McCarthy has failed today and it’s now being reported that a second one has as well.

It's possible that the MAGA rebels nominate Trump for speaker - the speaker doesn't need to be a voted in member of the house, it can be anyone who the majority give their backing to.

And it would be poetic if it happens on January 6th. I wouldn't put it past them that this is the end game.
