Lawmakers voted to reject hard-line conservative Jim Jordan's bid for speaker of the US House of Representatives for a third time on Friday, compounding the chaos that has left the government without a functioning legislative branch for weeks.
On Tuesday, Fox News host Brian Kilmeade was caught on a hot mic voicing his anger at House Republicans while voting was underway for the next House speaker.
Unlike previous House leaders, Jim Jordan has made his name as a vocal leader of the party's hard right, tangling with Democrats and Republicans alike.
