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.

Squeaker Of The House

 Mike Johnson fails to become Speaker on the first ballot. Three Republicans voted for someone else and he could afford to lose only one vote after Massie came out against him. This includes Stefanik and Waltz who will join the Trump Administration later this month. 

If - once Stefanik and Waltz leave - there is a motion to vacate...hoo boy.
