House adjourns after chaotic day without electing a speaker as McCarthy fails to lock down votes

The House adjourned for the day without a speaker after Republican Rep. Kevin McCarthy failed to get the support of his party and lost three rounds of voting. McCarthy is facing a small group of hardline conservatives but sources tell CNN he’s not giving up. Former acting chief of staff for President Trump and Republican Congressman Mick Mulvaney talked to some of the members who voted against McCarthy. He tells Anderson Cooper if they have a plan and whether their no votes are personal.

Plus, Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin remains in critical condition and his uncle tells CNN that his nephew had to be resuscitated twice after collapsing from a cardiac arrest on the field. CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta joins AC360 to discuss what we know about Hamlin’s condition.
