Founder of Eddie’s Taco House legacy Eddie started with a small idea and a large will to succeed. With the support of his family in 1976, he opened Eddie’s TacHouse in the corner of a warehouse located at 1615 N. Laredo St. Today we continue to follow his fream by of-fering quality food and good service at an affordable price. Never fully fluent in English, Mami nevertheless took us to the library as much as she could. When she realized that pulling us from school to spend weeks in Mexico affected our learning, Mami flatly told my dad that those vacations wouldn’t happen again. Her example of facing a cruel world with grit and grace influenced my three siblings and me to succeed in life — or them, at least.

Column: My mami’s hard life, cut short right when it was about to get really good
My mother’s grave is within eyesight of a big statue of the Santo Niño de Atocha, an apparition of the infant Jesus omnipresent in the lives of people from the state of Zacatecas, where she was born. Many from that diaspora are buried in Holy Sepulcher, including both of my maternal grandparents, family friends and cousins — and, one day, myself. So I recite the Lord’s Prayer and a Hail Mary for all of us, then pull up YouTube on my smartphone to play a mariachi version of “Lara’s Theme,” the song Mami requested we play at her funeral.

Opinion: Why are more Americans dying alone?
They all work in the public sector, while I’m the black sheep of the family as a reporter. A year of devastating frost followed by another year of drought destroyed consecutive harvests for my grandfather and forced him to move his family to the United States in the 1960s, when Mami was 9. His declining health meant she had to drop out of middle school in Anaheim to pick strawberries. She dealt with the alcoholism and gambling of my father in their early years of marriage, and his machismo until the day she passed. Edward Caballero started the Eddie’s Taco House legacy with a small idea and a huge will to succeed.

The trumpet in “Lara’s Theme” turns wary about halfway in, but I get a small smile thinking about what I put my mami through. As an infant, I would push her away when she tried to hold me and yell, “Ash! I talked too much in elementary school and never had good grades through high school. My family laid her to rest five years ago today, in a ceremony I remember like it happened yesterday.

San Antonio may not have won a Twitter poll asking Waffle House fans which city deserved a visit from the beloved chain, but it is rolling into town anyway. A Waffle House on wheels will be parked outside of the Majestic Theatre on September 3 from 10 am to 1 pm giving out free breakfast. Although the company says there is overwhelming demand for a proper brick-and-mortar in the Alamo City, there’s no word whether or not a franchise is in the works. The company does not typically share how they decide on potential locations, but Boss said that the chain doesn't currently have any plans for a San Antonio location. Waffle House is working on a new location in the Texas Hill Country, which will be the closest location to San Antonio.
Waffle House rolls into unexpected San Antonio location and more food news
The Cookhouse temporarily closed on August 25 for a refresh. After making a few renovations, the beloved Southern eatery will reopen September 3 with a new menu and a new general manager, former sous chef Matt Garcia. Although the restaurant is keeping the details mum for now, it did tease that it does have a month of special events lined up starting on September 8. One of the Hill Country’s longest-running celebrations is calling in its glam squad. On April 24, the Fredericksburg Food and Wine Festival, a highlight of the popular weekend destination’s busy calendar, announced a revamp, including a new look and enhanced culinary and beverage experiences. There’s no word on the details (although we assume it will indeed be a sports bar), and the business does not appear to have established a web or social media presence.

Popular 33-year-old Hill Country food festival glows up with brand-new events
The 24-hour breakfast chain plans to open a new restaurant in Kyle, reported My San Antonio. This year’s event promises an unparalleled lineup of culinary talent, live music, and immersive experiences to foster authentic connections among Texas culinary and beverage enthusiasts,” said the fest’s producer, Hayley Wakefield, via a release. Although the full schedule will not be announced for a few weeks, organizers have teased a variety of new activations. In addition to the grand tasting, the festivities include a special street dinner, an interactive brunch offsite, a yoga and wine session, a family friendly foodie event, and a curated sundry shop and sparkling wine garden. Robert Oberhelman, the late owner of Bell Mountain Winery, founded the festival in 1991 to highlight local chefs and promote the then-nascent Texas wine industry. Originally a fundraiser for Marktplatz, the town’s central park, the party now supports several Central Texas charities.
OH, BY THE WAY… Each day, we serve over 300,000 waffles across the Waffle House system. A VIP experience is available for those who want to amp up their experience. Prices have not been revealed yet, but traditionally it is one of the biggest bargains in the Central Texas food festival circuit.
The planned location about a half-hour south of Austin is the closest the chain has so far come to San Antonio.

When the House resolves itself into a Committee of the Whole, the speaker designates a member to preside over the committee, who is addressed as "Mister Chairman" or "Madam Chairwoman". The presiding officer also rules on all points of order but such rulings may be appealed to the whole House. The speaker is responsible for maintaining decorum in the House and may order the Sergeant-at-Arms to enforce House rules.
d Republican joins motion to oust Mike Johnson as House speaker
After the 1998 midterm elections where the Republicans lost seats, Gingrich did not stand for re-election. The next two figures in the House Republican leadership hierarchy, Majority Leader Richard Armey and Majority Whip Tom DeLay chose not to run for the office. The chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, Bob Livingston, declared his bid for the speakership, which was unopposed, making him speaker-designate. It was then revealed, by Livingston himself, who had been publicly critical of President Bill Clinton's alleged perjury during his sexual harassment trial, that he had engaged in an extramarital affair. He opted to resign from the House, despite being urged to stay on by House Democratic leader Gephardt. The Republicans retained their majorities in the 2000, 2002, and 2004 elections.
Inside the failed White House coup to oust Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre
Two rival delegations, one Whig and the other Democrat, had been certified as elected by different branches of the New Jersey government. The problem was compounded by the fact that the result of the dispute would determine whether the Whigs or the Democrats held the majority. Neither party agreed to permit a speakership election with the opposite party's delegation participating.
Speakers of the House of Representatives
You may also need permission from holders of other rights, such as publicity and/or privacy rights. This list is based on the difference between dates; if counted by number of calendar days all the figures would be one greater. Time after adjournment of one Congress but before the convening of the next Congress is not counted. For example, Nathaniel Macon was Speaker in both the 8thth and 9th Congresses, but the eight-month gap between the two Congresses is not counted toward his service.
Repository
Historically, the magical number has been 218 out of the 435 members of the House. But many previous speakers, including outgoing Speaker Nancy Pelosi, have ascended to the dais with fewer votes than that, as some members voted present instead of calling out a name. Every lawmaker voting "present" lowers the overall tally needed to reach a majority.
House Republicans share schedule of next steps in speaker race and election
And it left hanging the direction of the newly elected House Republican majority in the 118th Congress. Elected by a simple majority of the members of the House, the Speaker is traditionally their party's leader in the chamber, and unlike the other House leadership, the speaker is a constitutional officer as established by Article One of the United States Constitution. At the beginning of a new Congress every two years, the House elects a speaker, either the incumbent, or a new one, depending on party composition and membership of incumbents.
If McCarthy wins, he will be escorted to the chair to make remarks and be sworn in, and then he will administer the oath of office to members, followed by a vote on the new House's rules. Based on recent history, that vote could start anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour and a half after the House convenes. Republican Party holdouts repeatedly put forward the name of Rep. Byron Donalds of Florida, ensuring continuation of the stalemate that increasingly carried undercurrents of race and politics. They also put forward Republican Kevin Hern of Oklahoma, splitting the protest vote. Democrat Jeffries of New York won the most votes on every ballot but also remained short of a majority. McCarthy could be seen talking, one on one, in whispered and animated conversations in the House chamber.
What to know about new House Speaker Mike Johnson - Axios
What to know about new House Speaker Mike Johnson.
The presidents of the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard have already resigned. And last week, Columbia's president became the latest to testify before Congress. University leaders have been toeing a line on how to express disdain about antisemitic language and enforce university policies while also allowing students to practice free speech, as they face accusations that colleges are not doing enough to protect Jewish students.
From early in its existence, the speaker's primary function had been to keep order and enforce rules. Furthermore, when no candidate received an Electoral College majority in the 1824 presidential election, causing the president to be elected by the House, Speaker Clay threw his support to John Quincy Adams instead of Andrew Jackson, thereby ensuring Adams' victory. Following Clay's retirement in 1825, the power of the speakership once again began to decline, despite speakership elections becoming increasingly bitter. As the Civil War approached, several sectional factions nominated their own candidates, often making it difficult for any candidate to attain a majority. In 1855 and again in 1859, for example, the contest for speaker lasted for two months before the House achieved a result. For example, from 1839 to 1863 there were eleven speakers, only one of whom served for more than one term.
Additionally, since many speakers held office for multiple terms, often with non-consecutive periods, the time listed for each speaker represents the total length of their time as speaker. It is important to note that the period between the adjournment of one Congress and the convening of the next Congress is not included in the calculations. For instance, Nathaniel Macon served as speaker during both the 8th and 9th Congresses, but the eight-month gap between the two Congresses is not included in his service duration. The exact dates of service for each individual speaker is shown in the Term of service column of the above table. Johnson has gained stature and won bipartisan praise for letting the whole House vote on the aid package. He also got strong support in the Senate, where even an outright majority of Republicans voted for the aid on Tuesday.
His emissaries sidled up to holdouts, and grueling negotiations proceeded in the GOP whip’s office down the hall. Through defeat after defeat, McCarthy remained determined to persuade Republicans to end the paralyzing debate that has blighted his new GOP majority. “This sacred House of Representatives needs a leader,” said Democrat Joe Neguse of Colorado, nominating his own party’s leader, Hakeem Jeffries, as speaker. Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana, the vice conference chair and Judiciary member, is making calls for speaker, according to a source.
The dynamic gained steam in December, when a group of university presidents testified before a congressional committee. Rep. Elise Stefanik, the GOP conference chair, pressed the administrators at the hearing on how they have handled antisemitic incidents on their campuses. Ryan, then just 45, was the youngest speaker in nearly 150 years but had already been party's vice presidential nominee on the 2012 ticket. Once he had Boehner's job, however, he experienced much the same internal strife. Ryan also had a strained relationship with then-President Donald Trump, with whom he had a falling out during the fall 2016 campaign. In April 2018, Ryan said he would not serve another term and left as the party was losing its majority that fall.
They were also frustrated at the terms of a deal he cut with President Joe Biden to raise the nation’s debt limit earlier this year. This wing of the GOP is absolutist in its view of federal spending and some have even expressed willingness to entertain a default or shutdown to get what they want. Cooper, whose parents had operated a station on the Underground Railroad by which escaped slaves reached freedom, was a longtime ally of Wisconsin's legendary progressive governor and Sen. Robert "Fighting Bob" LaFollette. When Cooper was opposing Gillett in the House, LaFollette was conducting a smaller-scale revolt against the GOP leaders in the Senate. Two years after that, Gillett's party rode to a huge majority on the same postwar wave that swept Warren G. Harding into the White House in 1920. The party of Lincoln was gaining ground in most of the country and beginning a decade of Washington domination in the White House and Congress alike.
Samuel Randall filled the vacancy on December 4, 1876, the first day of the second session. 8Theodore Pomeroy was elected Speaker on March 3, 1869, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Speaker Colfax, and served one day.

The oath is identical to the one new members will take once a speaker is chosen. Defeated in the 1912 election, he returned two years later and served several additional terms as a rank and file member. On his last day in office he was featured on the cover of the first issue of the new Time Magazine (March 3, 1923). When Cannon's high-handed practices had become intolerable, a coalition of Democratic members and Republican progressives put together the bipartisan majority needed to "vacate the chair." Cannon remained Speaker but lost most of his powers.
The Doctors House Museum in Glendale
The speaker is selected by the full House membership, though the majority party’s voting power ensures that the role is occupied by one of their own. That's why the rejection of McCarthy on the first ballot and beyond was such riveting news. It left open the job that stands second in the line of presidential succession (right after the vice president).
Republicans Nominate Paul Ryan as House Speaker
But he voluntarily resigned after the GOP lost badly in the 2006 midterms, a defeat Bush called "a thumpin' " at the time. Greene had vowed to press her challenge after Johnson announced a strategy to pass $95 billion in aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan earlier this month. About two-thirds of that money was for Ukraine, an issue Greene had called her "red line" for moving against the speaker. To win the gavel, a candidate needs support from a majority of the House members present, meaning McCarthy will need 218 votes if every one of the current members votes and does so for a candidate by name.
Joe Alwyn has ‘moved on’ from ex Taylor Swift, he’s ‘dating and happy’: report
One from hardline Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene would reduce spending for Ukraine to zero. Democratic leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries said that he spoke with Johnson on Thursday night to ensure the bill would clear the Rules Committee. The longest fight for the gavel started in late 1855 and dragged on for two months, with 133 ballots, during debates over slavery in the run-up to the Civil War.
How this Congress keeps setting records with its speaker votes
At the height of his power, Cannon not only chose all the committee chairs, he chose all the members of all the committees. He was chairman of the Rules Committee and he determined which bills and amendments would be allowed on the floor and which members would be permitted to speak. McCarthy had resisted this as it would essentially put his job on the line on a daily, even hourly, basis.
Sign up to receive Constitution Weekly, our email roundup of constitutional news and debate, at bit.ly/constitutionweekly. The table provides a complete list of speakers of the House of Representatives. 17The first session of the 87th Congress (1961–1963) adjourned on September 27, 1961. John McCormack filled the vacancy on January 10, 1962, the first day of the second session. 9The first session of the 44th Congress (1875–1877) adjourned on August 15, 1876.
Weeks later, Democrats unanimously chose Rep. Hakeem Jeffries to become their leader as the party transitions into the minority. From 1977 to 1995, three successive Democratic speakers – Thomas “Tip” O’Neill, Jim Wright and Tom Foley – reinvigorated the speakership. They enlarged the party leadership structure, creating wider networks of loyalty among members of the majority party while strengthening support for their priorities.
Speaker pro tempore
How the House elects a speaker - WBAL TV Baltimore
Johnson is the sixth Republican elevated to the speakership since 1994, the year the party won its first House majority and elected a speaker of its own for the first time in 40 years. The hard truth is that the five who preceded Johnson (McCarthy, Paul Ryan, John Boehner, Dennis Hastert and Newt Gingrich) all saw their time in the office end in relative degrees of defeat or frustration. And to find a Republican speaker who left voluntarily in a moment of victory, moving on to another office, you have to go back to the mid-1920s. Greene could launch a bid to evict Johnson from the speaker’s office, should she call it up for a vote, much the way Republicans booted Kevin McCarthy from the position last fall.
Emmer plans to run "entirely positive" campaign for speaker, source says
James K. Polk is the only speaker of the House who was later elected president of the United States. At other times, more junior members may be assigned to preside to give them experience with the rules and procedures of the House. The speaker may also designate, with approval of the House, a speaker pro tempore for special purposes, such as designating a representative whose district is near Washington, D.C. In 1997, several Republican congressional leaders tried to force Speaker Newt Gingrich to resign. However, Gingrich refused since that would have required a new election for speaker, which could have led to Democrats along with dissenting Republicans voting for Democrat Dick Gephardt (then minority leader) as speaker.
Often called the second most powerful job in Washington, the speaker of the House has a vast array of responsibilities and daily duties. As Representative Paul D. Ryan prepares to take the helm, here is a look back at how some speakers fulfilled their charge as dictated by House rules, years of tradition and changing political realities. Johnson's visit to the campus further elevates the issue, and marks the latest in a series of visits from lawmakers this week.
Passing each bill, in votes expected Saturday, will require Johnson to form complicated bipartisan coalitions on each, with Democrats for example ensuring Ukraine aid is approved, but some left-leaning progressives refusing to back military aid for Israel over the destruction of Gaza. Still, Jeffries said that a majority of Democrats would vote Saturday for the packages of aid for Ukraine, Israel and allies in Asia. It was a victory for the strategy Johnson set in motion this week after he agonized for two months over the legislation. Still, Johnson has had to spend the past 24 hours making the rounds on conservative media working to salvage support for the wartime funding, particularly for Ukraine as it faces a critical moment battling Russia, but also for his own job as the effort to remove him as speaker grew. If no candidate can win a majority, the House will continue to hold votes until one does; that has happened only 14 times in the chamber's history; 13 of these took place before the Civil War, and the last occurrence was 1923.
The economy was still recovering from its postwar recession and labor unrest was widespread, including major strikes by coal miners and railroad workers. Theodore M. Pomeroy served as Speaker of the House for one day after Speaker Schuyler Colfax resigned to become Vice President of the United States; Pomeroy's term as a Member of Congress ended the next day. Sam Rayburn and Henry Clay are the only people to have served as Speaker of the House for more than ten years.
