ended 12 round of voting on nominations for the post of Speaker of the United States House of Representatives. Like the previous 11, he didn't pick a winner either..

At the same time, the experts calculated, what each unsuccessful round of voting takes away from the US budget, and also does not allow the budget to receive funds in the amount up to 50 million dollars. If it is true, then in a few days the American lawmakers only, that they can't choose a speaker, lowered to 0,6 billion dollars of taxpayers' money.
It is reported, that the outcome 12 Tour Kevin McCarthy, who was again nominated for the post of Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives from the Republican Party, “as close as possible to a positive outcome for yourself”.

McCarthy nominated again as Republican nominee.
Against the background of such a situation, one of the American congressmen decided to joke, stated, that McCarthy is not greeted in Congress like, how they met Zelensky the other day. In this regard, the same congressman proposed to introduce Zelensky as “compromise figure” for Speaker of the House of Representatives. The wording goes like this:
