Explosive..
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) and some of his rank-and-file members are articulating increasingly discordant ideas of what "due process" looks like for Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-Fla.).
Some Democrats are prepared to call for Cherfilus-McCormick to resign or be expelled as soon as the Ethics Committee makes its determination, Axios reported Wednesday.But Jeffries and his leadership team have signaled they will continue to defend Cherfilus-McCormick until the resolution of her federal criminal trial, which starts on April 20 and could go on much longer.
The nature of the allegations against Cherfilus-McCormick is of such an explosive and sensitive nature that some Democrats feel compelled to eject her sooner rather than later.
She is accused both by the Ethics Committee and in her federal indictment of laundering a $5 million FEMA overpayment to her family's health care company and using it to fund her congressional campaign.
Additional allegations include tax fraud and campaign finance violations. She faces up to 53 years in prison if convicted at trial.

His reasoning was straightforward. If anti-gun activists cannot ban firearms outright, they often try to attack the industry through lawsuits, hoping to make it too expensive, too risky, or too politically toxic for companies to keep making and selling guns. In that kind of environment, a Supreme Court ruling that sharply limits liability for third-party misuse can become a very useful shield. Just a thought.
Lauded..
The 42-day shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security could soon come to an end after the Republican-led Senate, in the early hours of Friday morning, moved to fund most of the department while conceding to Democratic Party demands.
After repeated deadlocks that left airports across the country with staffing shortages, the lawmakers finally agreed to fund DHS and its various agencies such as the Transportation Security Administration and the U.S. Coast Guard, but they held off on funding Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and part of Customs and Border Protection (CBP), which Democrats have singled out for their role in implementing Trump’s harsh anti-immigration agenda.
Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D, N.Y.), meanwhile, lauded the deal. “I’m very proud of our Democratic caucus,” Schumer reportedly said.
