Some happy hump-day news: more than a month after he was shot and nearly killed while at baseball practice for the Congressional Baseball Game, Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA) has been discharged from MedStar Washington Hospital Center and has entered an inpatient rehabilitation program. Scalise was discharged on Tuesday.

A statement from MedStar said that Scalise has made "excellent" progress and is in "good spirits." He expects to return to work once he has finished with rehab.

Glad to hear this. Rep. Scalise had almost disappeared from the news with all the other excitement in recent weeks.

Great news.

And Scalese will return with enhanced stature. When he pushes for National CCW Reciprocity, he has the victimized-by-the-left position to argue from (although he may not couch it in these terms).

I wish him a speedy, full recovery.

Those rehab places are germ factories. I hope he’s not in the one that killed my Mom.
