Don’t worry. Although Congress is at a standstill without a speaker for the first time in American history, Rep. Matt Gaetz said that everything is going according to his “plan.”
During an appearance on Meet the Press, Gaetz — who led the effort to oust Rep. Kevin McCarthy from his position as speaker of the House — defended his actions, even though they have left Congress “paralyzed,” according to Democratic Rep. Seth Moulton, in the face of an unprecedented attack against Israel.

Following the unprecedented rioting by supporters of Donald Trump in the U.S. Capitol, a growing number of people, both Democrats and Republicans, are calling for the president to be removed from office.
According to White House correspondent April D. Ryan, the push is happening even at the leadership level, as she reported that “Congressional leaders are in the undisclosed location and focusing on the 25th Amendment to get @realDonaldTrump out of office!”
And Washington Post reporter Dave Weigel reported that Massachusetts Democrat Katherine Clark, assistant Speaker of the House and the fourth-ranking congressional Democrat, called Trump “a traitor to our country and our Constitution” who “must be removed from office and prevented from further endangering our country and our people.”

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will each make appearances on the first night of the Democratic National Convention, which will be a bit of a feat of staging such a large scale event in a time of Covid-19.
The program lineup will feature a mix of live and taped segments and, in addition to political figures and “real-life” testimonials, will include celebrities such as Eva Longoria and performances by Leon Bridges, Maggie Rogers and Billy Porter and Stephen Stills.
Other speakers on Monday will include Bernie Sanders, but more notable are Republicans who will get a prime-time speaking slot: John Kasich, former governor of Ohio; Susan Molinari, former congresswoman from New York; Christine Whitman, former governor of New Jersey; and Meg Whitman, former CEO of Hewlett Packard and 2010 California gubernatorial candidate.

Updated with closing numbers An escalation of the U.S.-China trade war Friday, with new tariffs eliciting harsh rhetoric from President Donald Trump, sent U.S. stocks tumbling as the media business kept a wary eye on the situation.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average entered the final minutes of trading at 25,628.90, down 623 points (or more than 2%) for the day. The Nasdaq and S&p 500 saw slightly worse declines of nearly 3%. The slump quickly wiped out market gains for the week, but it wasn’t in historic territory in terms of single-day losses. Nevertheless, the anxiety level was undoubtedly ratcheted up by the back and forth and the market’s reaction, given other fears of a looming recession.
After news of China imposing $75 billion in new tariffs in the months-long trade war, Trump tweeted, “Our great American companies are hereby ordered to immediately start looking for an alternative to China.

Some would say self-help author and “political outsider” Marianne Williamson’s very presence on the Democratic debate stage constitutes a miracle and Williamson herself would probably agree. She beat out a billionaire (Tom Steyer), a sitting U.S. Congressman (Seth Moulton), a former U.S. Senator (Mike Gravel), and already lasted longer in the race than California Rep. Eric Swalwell.
The foundational text that launched the self-help author’s career is Helen Schucman’s “A Course In Miracles,” but presidential candidate thinks that may lead some to misunderstand her beliefs.

The first pair of Democratic Party debates in Miami created headlines, viral moments, and for a few, hangovers.
There is danger of that again in the second round, to begin tonight. The candidate field remains enormous, if changed. Last time, of 24 hopefuls, 20 participated, with Massachusetts congressman Seth Moulton and Miramar (Fl) Mayor Wayne Messam among those not on stage. A podium was left open for vanished aviator Amelia Earhart, but she did not return.
Messam and Moulton are still on the outs, having failed to reach 1% in the polls as well as secure 65,000 unique donors.

Mueller took the opportunity to resign from the Justice Department, and also to explain both that his team did not have “confidence that the president did not commit a crime,” and that because of the Doj’s policy that a sitting president cannot be indicted, “Charging the president with a crime was therefore not an option we could consider.

Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton broke the Monday news on Good Morning America, getting out ahead of former Veep Joe Biden, who this week will formally announce the worst kept secret of this election cycle.
“I’m here to tell you and to tell America that I’m running for president of the United States,” Moulton told Stephanopoulos on ABC’s morning show.
Asked what sets him apart from the other 18 Dem candidates, Moulton told Stephanopoulos he will “talk about patriotism, about security, about service. These are issues Democrats too long have ceded to Republicans. We’ve got to stop that,” he said, adding, “This is where Donald Trump is weakest.”

Ten Democrats have already announced they will be running for president in 2020. A handful of others have announced exploratory committees, or are expected to announce a run in the coming months. It’s anybody’s guess how many names will ultimately appear on the ballots of caucus and primary voters, but what has become clear is that the more the pool of candidates grows, the more enticing it is for lawmakers to test the water. On Sunday, Sen. Michael Bennet (D-co) teased a potential run during an appearance on Meet the Press.

Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, the first and only woman to serve as Speaker of the House, retook the gavel on Thursday afternoon, becoming the first speaker in 60 years to return to the position. Pelosi was re-elected to the speakership by a voice vote with 220 Democrats supporting her bid and 15 opposing it — an impressive margin when you consider that only a matter of weeks ago, 32 Democrats voted against her in a closed-door caucus election.

A day after a televised confrontation with President Trump underscored why she’s the only woman for the job, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-ca) appears to be a lock to return as the Speaker of the House in January.
Many of the leaders of an insurgency to deny her the gavel reversed their position Wednesday, citing an agreement for the House to vote on term limits for top Democratic leadership.
The agreement could spur turnover among senior party positions. The rule to be voted on creates a three-term (six-year) limit for top House leaders,...

Washington — Nancy Pelosi can’t be stopped.
In a private vote on Wednesday, House Democrats reelected Pelosi as speaker for the upcoming 116th Congress, which begins early next year. The vote was 203 to 32, with three blanks and one absent. She wasn’t expected to face any trouble within the confines of the Democratic caucus, especially given that no other Democrat publicly stepped up to challenge her in time for Wednesday’s vote.
“It was so inspiring to hear my colleagues place my name and nomination, once again, for speaker of the House.

Nancy Pelosi appears to be safe. The Democrats opposing her bid to resume her role as Speaker of the House — specifically Reps. Tim Ryan (D-oh) and Seth Moulton (D-ma) — keep stepping on rakes. Everyone from freshman member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to former president Barack Obama have given Pelosi their full-throated endorsement. Yes, 16 Democrats signed a letter earlier this week rebuking her, but 16 donors published one of their own that implied they would suddenly become awfully frugal were Pelosi replaced as leader.

There’s an insurrection brewing in the House of Pelosi.
An intractable group on the Democratic Party’s center flank is working to deny Nancy Pelosi the speaker’s gavel. The leaders of the block-Pelosi effort — which roughly mirrors the right-wing Freedom Caucus’ play to oust Republican Speaker John Boehner in 2015 — include Reps. Seth Moulton (D-ma), a 40-year-old former Marine officer, and Tim Ryan (D-oh) a 45-year-old former college quarterback who ran against Pelosi for the minority leader post in 2016 and lost badly, 134–63.
Their gambit is complex; here’s a...

The set of “Fox & Friends” weighed into what looks to be a nasty fight for leadership of the House Democratic majority, urging viewers and any Democratic Congressmen watching to stick with Nancy Pelosi — citing her long history of leading the caucus and resistance to Trump.
“Nancy Pelosi, whether you love her or hate her, she has helped deliver the House and kept everything together,” said show co-host Brian Kilmeade. “She has formulated a resistance. If you talk about effectiveness, you might say she’s effective.”
Kilmeade warned that it might even be dangerous to prevent the “historic revisiting of a female Speaker.”
