McCarthy Speaker & GOP House Majority Drama
Raptorpat replied to Master-Debater131's topic in Current Events
Kevin McCarthy is leaving congress by the end of the year. https://www.latimes.com/politics/story/2023-12-06/kevin-mccarthy-congress-retirement-not-seek-reelection-california For those keeping track, the GOP had a four seats more than a bare majority. Knocked down to three because Santos was kicked (in a seat that has better odds than not of flipping in February). This would knock them down to two seats to spare while the seat is vacant. -
I finally did my first route yesterday. When they came out, my game would crash any time I tried to start a route so I just ignored the feature entirely.

rep. from alabama blocks usmc nomination
Raptorpat replied to discolé monade's topic in Current Events
That's down to a realistic number where they could conceivably burn a week of floor time and manually pass them one by one. But even that is a massive time sink. -
This guy had an outstanding resume and I am shocked that he was available for the role.

Into the Never-ending "George Santos" Rabbithole
Raptorpat replied to Raptorpat's topic in Current Events
I didn't know the dates, had to look it up. Two guys in 1980 and 2002 who were convicted of crimes, and three guys in 1862 who were literal confederates. -

Suozzi should be the favorite - he was the incumbent a year ago, it's theoretically a blue-leaning swing district (Biden won it by like 8 points in 2020), and he's very conservative for a Dem. If he can't win, then that probably means Long Island is mostly off the table for now. -

The Gov I believe is required within the next ten days or so to schedule an election a couple months out. So there will probably be a special in early spring. In NY, special election candidates are chosen by party leaders directly (no primary), and the general sense is that they will nominate Tom Suozzi to run. He was the incumbent but opted to primary Hochul for Gov from the right last cycle, which is why the seat was open. It'll definitely be a test to see how damaged the Dem brand is on Long Island. -
