Happy Wednesday, folks! While Kevin McCarthy's firing as Speaker of the House was discussed yesterday, many forgot to mention that Hunter Biden was in Federal Court in Delaware Justice being served? I wouldn't hold my breath but I guess anything is possible. .

Rep. Kevin McCarthy was OUSTED as Speaker of the House yesterday. This motion to "Vacate The Chair" was made by Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fl) Chamber rules required McCarthy to act on Gaetz’s motion within two days.
Background: Gaetz alleged McCarthy inked a “secret side deal” with Democrats to hold a House vote on Ukraine funding in exchange for getting enough votes to prevent a shutdown. McCarthy denied making any deals with Democrats, saying he hasn’t spoken with Biden for months.
Among the potential contenders, it's not surprising that Matt Gaetz is one of the prominent figures who initiated this discussion. It wouldn't be a shocker to see him entering the race. On the other hand, considering Steve Scalise's position as the second-highest-ranking Republican in Congress, he appears to be a strong candidate and a favorite in the eyes of many.

However, the field is diverse, and other notable figures have been mentioned as potential candidates. This list includes Jim Jordan, Byron Donalds, Majority Whip Tom Emmer, House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, Rules Committee Chair Tom Cole, Representative Garrett Graves, and Financial Services Chairman Patrick McHenry.
What Now?: Honesty time? We're sailing into uncharted political waters here! This is the first time a Speaker of the House has been voted out, So, when it comes to historical precedent, we're basically in "choose your own adventure" territory.
In the meantime, meet Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-NC), who's taken the role of Speaker Pro-Tempore. Let's see how this political drama unfolds! 🎭🏛️🎬
Common Sense?
‘Groundbreaking Legal Victory’ Court Rules School Cannot Trans Kids Without Parental Consent
width=519>
A Waukesha County Circuit Court Ruled in favor of Wisconsin parents, deciding that a Wisconsin school district “abrogated” parents’ rights when it decided to socially “affirm” their daughter as a transgender boy against their wishes.
Background: Following a court decision in favor of the parents, it's essential to understand the background of this legal battle. The Wisconsin school district had been embroiled in a contentious lawsuit over allegations that they had addressed a 12-year-old female student using both a male name and male pronouns, all of which had been strongly opposed by the student's parents.

The lawsuit was filed by the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty and Alliance Defending Freedom in the Waukesha County Circuit Court. It centered on the claim that the school district's actions had not only disregarded the parents' objections but also raised concerns about potential violations of constitutionally protected parental rights.
What Does This Mean?: The recent court ruling in favor of parental rights in Wisconsin has the potential to set a significant precedent that resonates far beyond state borders, particularly in states like California and New York, where issues surrounding parental authority and children's decisions have been a subject of debate.

This ruling sends a clear message that parental authority should not be superseded by state or educational institutions when it comes to sensitive matters, such as a child's self-identity and life-altering decisions. It emphasizes the importance of parents playing a central role in guiding and influencing their child's upbringing, especially when it comes to issues as profound as identity and life choices.
