The House speaker told staff he will not run for House minority leader.
House Speaker Mike Johnson is stepping down from Republican leadership.
The Louisiana Republican announced on Wednesday morning on an all-staff call that he will not run for House minority leader for the new Congress next year, following Tuesday’s historical Democratic landslide takeover of the House of Representatives.
It’s not clear yet if Johnson has anointed a successor to lead the Republican caucus. Representative Jim Jordan, chair of the House Judiciary Committee, has already thrown his hat into the ring and announced he’s running for House minority leader. According to Punchbowl News, Jordan’s pitch will be that new blood is needed and that he specializes in investigations.
The current number two Republican in the House, Representative Steve Scalise, also announced that he is running for caucus leader.

He doesnt want to be minority leader because then he would have to persecute himself and try to prevent himself from voting.
LOL, bravely running away, away!
I’ve never seen anyone know less while walking so fast that he was nearly jogging - away from people asking questions.
Oh so that news he sees.
☝️
Of course he’s a cowardly lil bitch 😂
“Screw you guys! I’m going home!”
God this just keeps getting better 🥲
Even Pinocchio was more human than this faux Christian, sock puppet. He is as complicit in all the Trump and GOP crimes and should be prosecuted till oblivion.
His skeleton will decay to dust with Donnie’s shit all over his mealy mouth.
Well yeah he’s never been a leader. His only job has been playing dumb and obsufcating. He’s not a guy to lead a charge and fight.
Course neither is Hakeem Jeffries so call and write your reps today and tell them no on him for Speaker.
Two in the thoughts, one in the prayers
And one in a field in Pennsylvania.
I was gonna say "a second thought has hit the prayers’, why did this give 9/11 lol
Time to scurry down the rat line
I hope prison will do to him what he did to the USA
What a wonderful side effect of the blue tsunami.
“I’m not familiar with all the details” of him bitching out, lol
Mike now has more time to keep his and his son’s johnson away from porn. Mike can spend more time with his plastic trad wife.
Keep away? But it sounds like a family activity they have if you ask me 🥴
