🧵 Jim Jordan likely becoming Speaker of the House is the natural evolution of Trump’s takeover of the GOP. But it’s also been nearly a decade in the making. From his time as RSC chairman, to forming & chairing the Freedom Caucus, to becoming one of Trump’s fiercest allies.

TRANSITIONS — Corinne Day is now deputy comms director for Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.). She previously was media relations manager at the R Street Institute, and is an RNC alum.
As people wonder why Mike Johnson abruptly sent Congress home today, a week before a shutdown deadline - maybe he had to rush to his speaking gig in Paris tomorrow? His priority might be to hang with Kristie Noem (no covenant marriage for her!), Devin Nunes, Moms for Liberty...1/

Biden not doing a SuperBowl interview this year.
Last year, didn't want to do Fox News and tried to do streaming channel Fox Soul.
This year, Biden is declining to sit-down with CBS. Expected to be a huge audience

Speaker Johnson never planned to attend or give remarks via Zoom at the WFI event in Paris this weekend.
Any reports to the contrary from WFI or any other source are plainly false.
New: at White House meeting today, McConnell nudged Johnson by advocating for Senate Ukraine bill, per two sources. then he said publicly he hopes House take up bill and passes it without changes

This two-step continuing resolution is a necessary bill to place House Republicans in the best position to fight for conservative victories. The bill will stop the absurd holiday-season omnibus tradition of massive, loaded up spending bills introduced right before the Christmas

May we always remember their sacrifice.
