To her, I guess.

She's a habitual bridge burner. In the end though, she wants her committees so she'll vote for Schumer so all this is attention seeking bullshit.

The real fun in DC these days is predicting if Kevin McCarthy has the votes for Speaker. He needs 218, has 222 Rs so can only lose 4 votes, and reigning in the far-right Qaucus is like herding cats. We'll see.

So it goes.
