Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

It's Going To Get Worse

 It looks like Kevin McCarthy is making exactly the sort of concessions that will make things exponentially worse in terms of running the House.  In addition to ceding control of the Rules committee to a bunch of arsonists, he will allow for debate and additions on bills that will make it basically impossible to pass anything. Perhaps the saving grace would be allowing a single House member to call for a new snap election for Speaker. If we reach an impasse and the government teeters on chaos, the so-called "Problem Solver" caucus could oust McCarthy and put in Fred Upton or Larry Hogan to at least keep the lights on.

Not sure how much chaos we will have to endure between now and then.
