Lauren Boebert yells that Jim Jordan 'holdouts' are why Congress isn't 'working right now'

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) reportedly shouted that Republicans who didn't vote for Jim Jordan -- and not those who ousted Kevin McCarthy from the speakership role in the first place -- are responsible for the fact that "Congress isn't working right now."

In yet another sign of increasingly harsh divisions between far-right GOPers and their moderate counterparts, Boebert yelled in the direction of a "holdout" as both lawmakers were giving statements to the press about the state of the election for speaker.

The shouting incident was just the most recent sign of divisions coming out of the vote to Nix Jordan as House speaker nominee, according to the New York Times Friday.

Describing the scene at the Capitol after the vote, the Times reported that "reporters flocked toward any member they could as they streamed into a narrow Capitol basement hallway to head back home."

"Some mainstream members were glad for the chance to move beyond Mr. Jordan’s bid, and to somehow find someone who could unify the conference; an elusive prospect, many said. Hard-liners were furious at what they saw as a betrayal of their candidate," the news outlet reported.

Going even further, the Times noted the specific incident involving Boebert's shouting.

"The split going into what by all indications will be another grueling, chaotic speaker’s race was evident: As Representative Jen Kiggans of Virginia, a Biden-district Republican who opposed Mr. Jordan, told reporters that she looked forward to members coalescing around a new candidate, Representative Lauren Boebert of Colorado, a hard-right firebrand, raged just behind her," The Times article states.

“These holdouts,” Ms. Boebert yelled in Ms. Kiggans’s direction, “are responsible for Congress not working right now," according to the outlet.
