Tom Emmer, the \u2063majority whip and former\u200d chairman of\u2062 House Republicans&#8217; campaign \u2063arm, is currently leading the race. \u200cHowever, Reps. Byron\u200d Donalds and Kevin Hern have garnered support \u2064from their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/speaker-vote-house-gop-meets-for-third-internal-election-after-three-weeks-without-leader\/\" title=\"House GOP holds third internal election after three-week leader vacancy. Speaker vote underway.\">respective \u200dhome-state colleagues<\/a>. Other contenders include Reps. Austin Scott, Mike Johnson, Pete Sessions, Jack Bergman, and Gary \u200cPalmer.<\/p>\n<p>The competition has intensified after failed candidacies by \u2064Majority Leader\u2063 Steve Scalise and Rep. Jim Jordan. \u2064This means that it may take \u2064multiple\u2062 rounds for the conference to select a new speaker designate. Nevertheless, some lawmakers \u200banticipate that the nominee could be elected by the full House by Tuesday night, leaving little time to secure\u2063 votes.<\/p>\n<p>Once nominated, the candidate will need to secure 217 votes, \u2062or a majority of\u200b the\u2064 entire chamber, to become the speaker on \u200cthe\u200d House floor.

The \u2062offensive caught the Allies\u2064 by surprise \u2064and initially\u2062 led to significant\u2064 German gains, resulting in a bulging of the\u200d front line, hence the name &#8220;Battle of the Bulge.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The German offensive involved a concentrated effort by armored and infantry units, supported by artillery and air support. However, the\u2064 advancing German forces\u200b faced\u200c logistical challenges due\u2062 to \u2062poor weather\u2063 conditions and depleted supplies.<\/p>\n<p>As the battle progressed, the \u200dAmerican and\u2063 British forces managed to\u200b regroup\u2062 and \u2064establish a defensive\u200b line, \u2063effectively stopping the\u2063 German advance. The Allies \u200dheld \u2064their ground despite heavy \u200bcasualties and made daring counterattacks to\u200b regain lost\u200b territory.<\/p>\n<p>The Allied victory at the Battle of the Bulge was a turning point in\u2064 the war. It exposed the limitations\u200d of the German\u2062 military and significantly weakened \u2064their forces. It\u2062 also boosted the morale of the Allied troops and demonstrated their resilience and ability to\u200b withstand overwhelming attacks.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the Battle\u200b of the Bulge had\u2062 a significant impact on the\u200c outcome of World War II and\u200b represented \u2062the last major German offensive on the Western\u2063 Front.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republicans running for speaker secure a majority, the party will face a floor vote on Wednesday.
