Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy detailed his confidence Rep. Jim Jordan can become the next speaker during 'FOX & Friends' ahead of the crucial vote on Tuesday
"The real challenge here is, and I know a lot of people out there are afraid that will Republicans break off and go work with Democrats, the only reason anybody's even talking about that is because eight Republican members worked with every single Democrat to remove me from speaker and put us into this tailspin and all based upon keeping government open," he continued.

Jordan, who on Friday secured the nomination for speakership after a vote from the Republican conference, is looking at Tuesday as the best day for a floor vote, the source said, noting that most members would be back at the Capitol and present for the voting.
