I have decided to depart the House
at the end of this year to serve
America in new ways.
I know my
work is only getting started, Kevin McCarthy, via 'Wall Street Journal' op-ed.
I will continue to recruit our country’s
best and brightest to run for elected
office.
The Republican Party is
expanding every day, and I am
committed to lending my experience to
support the next generation of leaders, Kevin McCarthy, via 'Wall Street Journal' op-ed.
McCarthy was ousted as
House speaker in October.
His temporary successor, former speaker pro tempore
Patrick McHenry, a McCarthy ally, announced that he
will not seek reelection next year either.
House Republicans, particularly those who voted
to oust McCarthy, had mixed reactions about his
retirement announcement, 'USA Today' reports.
I thank him for his service
and wish him well, Rep.
Bob Good, R-Va., one of the eight GOP members
who voted to oust McCarthy, via 'USA Today'.
Matt Gaetz, on the other hand, took
to X to simply write, "McLeavin.'".
Rep.
Carlos Gimenez took to X to call McCarthy a "leader of conviction" with whom
he has been "proud to stand alongside.".
Rep.
Kevin Kiley called the former speaker
"irreplaceable in terms of the value that he brought
to our delegation and the entire conference.".
Once McCarthy leaves Congress, a special election to fill his spot must be declared by Gov.

Pro-Palestinian activists released maggots and other insects at the Watergate Hotel in Washington, D.C., where Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu was staying during his controversial U.S. visit. The incident, claimed by the Palestinian Youth Movement, was a protest against Israel's actions in Gaza. It coincided with Netanyahu's address to Congress and large demonstrations nearby. The hotel confirmed the event, stating it has been sanitized. This unusual protest underscores the heightened tensions surrounding Netanyahu's visit and the ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict.

The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas has dismissed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s vision for a “future” Gaza Strip, excluding the resistance group from governance, as mere “delusions.” The remarks came in a statement from Hamas on Wednesday, following Netanyahu's speech to the US Congress. In his address, Netanyahu outlined a self-proclaimed vision for Gaza, claiming the Israeli regime aimed to “eliminate” Hamas through an ongoing military campaign. This conflict, which began on October 7, has resulted in the deaths of at least 39,670 Palestinians, predominantly women and children, without achieving the stated goal of defeating the resistance.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lambasted Anti-Israel protesters during his Wednesday address to Congress. As thousands demonstrated in Washington, D.C., with some becoming violent, Netanyahu criticized the "Gays for Gaza" slogan used by certain protesters, calling it oxymoronic. He likened it to saying "Chickens for KFC," arguing it made no sense given the treatment of LGBTQ individuals in Gaza. Capitol Police had to use pepper spray to control the crowd.

Merrick Garland , Held in Contempt of Congress.
The Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives voted to hold the attorney general in contempt of Congress on June 12, BBC reports.
The resolution was passed by a 216-207 vote.
Only one Republican,
David Joyce, voted in opposition. .
As a former prosecutor, I cannot in good
conscience support a resolution that
would further politicize our judicial
system to score political points, Rep. David Joyce, via statement.
Garland is held in contempt of Congress
for refusing to provide interview tapes with President Biden that were recorded during the Justice Department's classified document probe. .
Following the contempt vote, Garland said
House Republicans have "turned a serious congressional authority into a partisan weapon.".
Today’s vote disregards the
constitutional separation of powers,
the Justice Department’s need to
protect its investigations, and the
substantial amount of information we
have provided to the Committees. , Merrick Garland, via statement.
Garland is now the third U.S. attorney
general in American history to be held in contempt of Congress, BBC reports. .
In an opinion piece published in the 'Washington Post' on June 11, Garland said that "the Justice Department is under attack like never before.".
He pointed to a rise in "conspiracy theories, falsehoods, violence and threats of violence towards department officials by Republican critics.".
The short-term political benefits of
those tactics will never make up for
the long-term cost to our country. , Merrick Garland, via the 'Washington Post'
