House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) announced a bid to become the next House majority leader on Wednesday as the GOP appears likely to win a narrow majority in the lower chamber.
“The American people deserve a House of Representatives that can move the agenda that was promised to them on the campaign trail,” Scalise said in a letter addressed to his GOP colleagues in the House.

Agreed. No power sharing with the Dems. Not one iota, not for a nanosecond. 100% non-negotiable.
“Yep, this rumor was mentioned this morning on FOX and Friend’s, guess they were right. We definitely need a leadership shake-up, the Senate too.”
Hey Hey Ho Ho, Bitch McConnell had to go.
Deep State...BS
“Is Trump even relevant at this point? Who does DeSantis back? That’s what I want to know”
The political obituary being written by guys like you for Donald Trump, is just a bit premature.
As far as who DeSantis backs, “Who gives a shit?”
McCarthy has it locked up.
Anyone but that squish McCarthy. He’s about as solid as jello, a junior version of McConell.
Absolutely, partially because to some people nothing is relevant BUT Trump, and what he wants.
Who does DeSantis support?
As a member of the Freedom Caucus he supported Jordan once before, and probably still does from a desirable standpoint. From a practical standpoint however McCarthy may be the only choice available for anyone to select from, unfortunately, unless Trump and others steered it another direction.
At this point, I no longer give a crap. The GOP can kiss my keister.
Yes.
Kev needs to go for sure. Completely. No speaker of the House either, he’s as owned by the CCP as biden is.
Scalise needs to have his pockets checked for ccp Chinese fortunecookies .
No more CCP luvin Rinos.
Flush them all.
To gain control of all the committees?
Darn right. Winning the House is HUGE. We need someone who will rule with a discrete ruthlessness. Smile the whole time you savage Democrats.
Didn’t help win a majority. I don’t think they are to pull it out. If they do maybe by 5 seats and then McCarthy will do Dem lite moderate crap and lose it again in 2024
I don’t think it’s “a function” of the position as much as it is money = power and that’s how McCarthy and McConnell locked down these roles for so long. If THAT could be changed, somehow, that would bode well for not only this selection but all future selections. Unfortunately I’m not sure anyone knows how it could be done.
A “W” is still a “W”
A lot of people need to remember that fact.
The establisj=hment keeps telling us we should be mioderate and move towards the center.
Do the rats move toward the center? No they use their victories to push further left. Moving to the center is surrendering!
I hope someone steps up to kick out Mitch in the Senate.
A narrow House win means no Supreme Court packing, no DC statehood, no more reconciliation bills... The majority controls what goes to the House floor for a vote.
That is the best news I have heard today.
wut
She is not a member of the House.
Yeah, my bad. I didn’t realize she is a senator.
