In remarks outside a New York courtroom to reporters, Donald Trump says his focus is "totally" on running for president when asked if he would consider becoming Speaker of the House a day after Kevin McCarthy was ousted from the position. "We'll do whatever is best for the country and for the Republican party," he adds. SOUNDBITE
Donald Trump Jr. had considered running for an open Senate seat in Wyoming last year--but decided against it. Instead, Business Insider reports the eldest son of President Donald Trump and girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle are looking at real estate in Florida. The eldest son of President Donald Trump has sparred with Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) over his father's foreign policy agenda in the past. But while Wyoming strongly leans Republican, he lacked roots in the Western state, which is also the least populated state in the US. White House advisor Ivanka Trump is thought of as a potential Republican challenger to GOP Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida in 2022. Ivanka Trump and husband Jared Kushner are also house-hunting in Florida, where her father and stepmother plan to relocate shortly.
On Friday, Joe Biden said he strongly considered Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont to be his labor secretary. However, after Democrats regained control of the senate, both men decided against the move. "I did give serious consideration on nominating my friend Bernie Sanders." Biden said. "I'm confident he could have done a fantastic job." Biden chose Boston Mayor Marty Walsh as his pick for labor Secretary.
Texas Senator Ted Cruz is under fire for supporting the debunked theory that Donald Trump won the 2020 election. Lawmakers and other public officials in Texas are calling for Cruz to resign. On Wednesday, Trump supporters stormed Capital Hill, parroting the claim that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump. Texas Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa said Cruz "undermined our democracy, inspired treasonous, seditious acts, and brought shame to Texas."
Beto O'Rourke has a long and storied history of failure. His alt-weekly flopped. His record band went nowhere. He lost a Senate race to one of the most disliked senators of all time, Ted Cruz. His presidential campaign is considered one of the worst in American presidential political history. O'Rourke dedicated two years to flipping his home state, Texas, to the Democratic party. Beto failed at that too. Now, what is the former congressman going to do? Teach at Texas State and write a book about Democracy. Dallas Morning News reports Beto will be paid $7,500 to teach a course next semester at Texas State University. He is also "writing a book on democracy in the U.S. through the lens of Texas."
