McCarthy Allegedly Announces "Deal" on Concessions with Chip Roy, But...
Just a quick note that Kevin McCarthy announced on a GOP Conference call this morning that he has reached a written “deal” with Texas Cong. Chip Roy on a set of concessions that Roy some of the 20 others who have been opposing McCarthy’s big to become Speaker are satisfied with.
Some on Twitter are reporting this as if it somehow ensures McCarthy’s election:
But Rep. Roy disagrees:
He did not say this. And any agreement will take us ALL. We are making progress… but don’t let the sharks confuse the ongoing engagement. #Onward #StandUpForAmerica @chiproytx https://t.co/uyOVgq3BmR

So, this deal isn’t any final solution - at least not yet.
Stay tuned.
