House adjourns until noon Friday, without a speaker, as Republicans continue to work on a deal

Today, with allies of California Republican Kevin McCarthy finding a potential breakthrough in their stalemate with some of the holdouts and wanting time to work on furthering a deal, the House voted to adjourn largely along party lines after a third day of voting failed to produce a speaker. Republican may have broken through with a possible deal, according to three individuals familiar with the discussions who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly. The potential break in the stalemate comes as the House broke a 100-year record and McCarthy failed on the 11th ballot in his bid for speaker.
