A group of 20 members of his own party have torpedoed McCarthy’s Speakership bid. Despite endless talks and signs of concessions, the impasse continues – bringing to a standstill all functions of the chamber. For how long will this deadlock continue? What will be the implications for the Grand Old Party? How does it impact the functioning of the US government?. Pressure mounting, will Kevin McCarthy withdraw? If not McCarthy, who is going to be the Speaker of the US House of Representatives?.
