Wow. flip-flops and votes for McCarthy after voting 11 times against him. Will he keep his word and resign? How does he have any credibility left with his Conference or constituents?
RIP Freedom Caucus!

Inflation has dropped massively—since before the 2022 election. Annualized rate of 2.5%, for the last five months. Press focuses on the year-over-year rate, so you might have missed it. But make a note: this happened BEFORE the GOP took the House.

The insurrectionist demands give them more power to destroy the legislative body, disguised as improvement or empowerment for the better
Its basically a page from the insurrectionists handbook that McCarthy will deliver for them,
and it will be his undoing too

Just think: if Kevin McCarthy had made Gaetz resign bc of his sex scandal or moved to expel Boebert when she endangered ppl on J6, or tried to get rid of Gosar after his endless # of racist statements, he probably wouldn't be having this problem now.

This is Steve Scalise, a potential Republican replacement for Kevin McCarthy.
He previously spoke to a summit of white supremacists and neo-Nazis and described himself as “David Duke without the baggage.”

As a nation, we have one truly sacred obligation: to prepare those we send into harm's way and care for them and their families when they come home.
That's why helping toxic-exposed veterans and servicemembers is important to me. It's why I made the PACT Act law.

Former President Trump appears to have mentioned my brother #PaulWhelan's wrongful detention more in the last 24 hours than he did in the 2 years of his presidency in which Paul was held hostage by #Russia (zero). I don't suggest he cares now any more than he did then (zero)
Quote Tweet
Trump slams trade with Russia, saying, "Why wasn’t former Marine Paul Whelan included in this totally one-sided transaction? He would have been let out for the asking." Begging the question then of why Trump didn't free Whelan, who was imprisoned in 2018 during Trump's presidency

I just want to make a few things clear:
The Holocaust happened.
Hitler was a demonic figure.
And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides.
Silence is complicity.

1/ There's one night I will remember most when thinking about Nancy Pelosi - the night I watched her single handedly save health care for 20 million Americans.
It was at the first Democratic caucus meeting after Scott Brown won the special Senate election in Massachusetts.

Three huge differences between a 50-50 and 51-49 D majority:
1) Having a majority on each Committee versus power sharing/deadlocks requiring discharge petitions;
2) No single D Senator can hijack/block nominations; and
3) Ds can have *two* members absent and still hold votes.

Does everyone realize that Ukrainian president Zelenskyy saluted US veterans on Veterans Day, but Donald Trump didn't?
Quote Tweet
For almost 250 years the men and women of the United States armed forces have prevailed against tyranny. Your example inspires Ukrainians today to fight back against Russian aggression.
On behalf of all Ukrainians, Happy Veterans Day and thank you for your service.

I understand his numbers are not currently great. But based on what he’s gotten done with a 50/50 Senate and narrow House majority, the mess he mopped up after Trump, his leadership on Ukraine, and tonight, I can tell you as an historian: Biden goes down a winner in the books.

What does gerrymandering look like?
In U.S. House races, 1,093,808 Tennesseans (65%) voted for the Republican candidate, 581,111 (35%) for the Democrat, according to AP results.
But the GOP gets 8 out of 9 (89%) of the congressional seats.
