20 House Republicans voted against Ohio Representative Jim Jordan from becoming Speaker of the House. Jordan was nominated by the GOP after competitor Louisiana Republican Steve Scalise backed out of the race after failing to secure the necessary votes.

Those Republicans who voted against Jordan areโ€ฆ

  • Representative Don Bacon (Nebraska, District 2)
  • Representative Lori Michelle Chavez-DeRemer (Oregon, District 5)
  • Representative Anthony P. Dโ€™Esposito (New York, District 4)
  • Representative Mario Rafael Dรญaz-Balart Caballero (Florida, District 26)
  • Representative John Kevin โ€œJakeโ€ Ellzey (Texas, District 10)
  • Representative Andrew R. Garbarino (New York, District 2)
  • Representative Carlos Antonio Gimenez (Florida, District 28)
  • Representative Tony Gonzalez, (Texas, District 23)
  • Representative Kay Granger, (Texas, District 12)
  • Representative Mike Kelly (Pennsylvania, District 16)
  • Representative Jen Kiggans (Virginia, District 2)
  • Representative Nick LaLota (New York, District 1)
  • Representative Mike Lawler (New York, District 17)
  • Representative John Rutherford (Florida, District 5)
  • Representative Mike Simpson (Idaho, District 2)
  • Representative Ken Buck (Colorado, District 4)
  • Representative John James (Michigan, District 10)
  • Representative Doug Lamalfa (California, District 1)
  • Representative Victoria Spartz (Indiana, District 5)
  • Representative Steve Womack (Arkansas, District 3)

A look into the federal campaign finance data of these candidates reveal that the blocking of Jim Jordan as House Speaker may have been a vindictive strike by a GOP donor class that is eager to punish President Donald Trump, and anybody who dare voice support for his 2024 Presidential campaign.

A recent report released by prolific investigative reporter Laura Loomer revealed that several high-level GOP donors have started dumping millions of dollars into a political action committee controlled by Republican Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin. Loomer predicts that Youngkin is planning to enter the 2024 Republican Presidential Primary after the Virginia elections are held in early November.

One of the donors uncoveredย in Loomerโ€™s shocking reportย was a man by the name of Richard Gilliam. Gilliam is the creator of โ€˜Cumberland Resourcesโ€™ in Virginia, and has donated to Vivek Ramaswamy, Chris Christie, and Nikki Haley in the 2024 Election cycle. Gilliam has recently shifted his donations away from these Republican candidates, and is now donating large sums of money to Youngkinโ€™s โ€˜Spirit of Virginiaโ€™ PAC. See evidence of those donations from Gilliam to Youngkinโ€™s โ€˜Spirit of Virginiaโ€™ PAC belowโ€ฆ

It turns out that Richard Gilliam, who is funding almost every single Trump opponent in the 2024 Republican Presidential Primary, has also donated to many of the Republicans who voted against Jim Jordan today.

Gilliam has donated to Mike Lawler, who chose to place his vote for Speaker today for disgraced former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.

Gilliam also donated to Lori Chavez-Deremer, who also voted against Jim Jordan becoming Speaker of the House.

Richard Gilliam, who has funded nearly every single anti-Trump candidate in the Republican Presidential Primary just so happens to be a donor to many of the House Republicans who voted to tank Jim Jordanโ€™s first Speaker voteโ€ฆ Could that be a coincidence?

Another GOP mega-donor with ties to several of the Republicans who voted against Jim Jordan today is billionaire hedge-fund manager Paul Singer. Singer dumped millions of dollars into Marco Rubioโ€™s 2016 Presidential run in an effort to derail Trump, and also is linked to the research used by Fusion GPS to produce the vaunted Steele Dossier, which was used to peddle the phony Russian collusion hoax throughout the Trump Presidency.

Singer has donated to New York Representative Mike Lawler, as well as Anthony Dโ€™Esposito and Lori Chavez-Deremer. See evidence of those donations belowโ€ฆ
