On her floor convo with Rep. Gosar earlier, AOC tells me that McCarthy made claims within the GOP conf. that some Ds would walk away to lower the threshold. Gosar was asking AOC for clarification — would she walk away? “We would never do that,” AOC told me. Jeffries all the way.

Why on earth would AOC bail out McCarthy?

Why not offer Ds something in return for handing McCarthy the Speakership? Esp. considering his last offer for just 5 votes.
It would restore some sanity & bi-partisan functionality to House = A win for McCarthy + Congress + Country.

Better get it in writing and make sure it legally binding if dealing with McCarthy. Once he’s speaker it’s back to 💯 % dirtbag for him
