The House makes history by expelling George Santos from its ranks.

This is the first time a Republican has ever been removed this way.

In light of the expulsion of the gentleman from New York, Mr. Santos, the whole number of the House is now 434.

Somehow, Santos found a silver lining.

In the more dignified chamber of Congress, Democrats put Senator Tommy Tuberville

who has held up military appointments for months on notice. If Republicans are not

able to get Senator Tuberville to stand down quickly, we are going to hold a vote on our resolution to

confirm these nominees before we leave this year. Believe it or not six weeks

from now Republican voters in Iowa will choose their

2024 presidential nominee which makes us an excellent time to take a closer look at

the coalition Donald Trump believes will return him to the White House.
