The fourth time was the charm for House Republicans.

After 22 days of drama and a complete standstill of legislative business, the House rallied around its fourth nominee for House speaker, Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA).

BIDEN SIGNALS DESIRE TO WORK WITH NEW SPEAKER WHILE CAMPAIGN UNDERCUTS HIM AS 'EXTREME'

Johnson earned unanimous support from House Republicans on Wednesday's floor vote and pledged "servant leadership" that will restore the public's faith in the GOP-led House.

His election ended weeks of tumult in Congress after Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) led a group of eight GOP rebels to oust Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) as speaker on Oct. 3. The vacancy set off an internal scramble to find a new leader, first with Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA), then Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), and finally Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) as nominees.

Johnson was a relatively unknown member of Congress in comparison, but he benefited from being widely well-liked and respected by his peers.

“It's not only that he has a great work ethic — he’s got just a great set of values, and he's smart,” Jordan said. “He's that great combination of work ethic, grounded in the right principles and values, and is a smart guy, and that's exactly what you need for a tough job like he's got.”

Johnson's first challenge will be avoiding a looming Nov. 17 government shutdown and addressing aid package requests for wars in Ukraine and Israel.
