Why does the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives have so much power?
Republican Kevin McCarthy made history as the first Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives to be removed from office. The motion was proposed by Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz and the vote took place with 216 in favor and 210 against, including eight Republicans voting for McCarthy's removal. The Speaker is second in the line of succession after the Vice President and wields significant power in government. Patrick McHenry is the interim Speaker following McCarthy's removal. Nancy Pelosi preceded McCarthy as Speaker, serving from 2019 to 2023 and from 2007 to 2011, and was praised by President Biden for her legislative achievements.

‘Porn’ insult may have led to Saudi gunman’s attack at Pensacola base
A Saudi airman, infuriated by a 'porn' insult from an instructor, carried out a shooting at the Pensacola naval base, killing three. The instructor's employer is cooperating with the FBI, and six fellow Saudi trainees have been detained. Alshamrani had shared anti-American statements on social media and shown a mass shooting video the night before. President Trump discussed the incident with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who reiterated Saudi Arabia's commitment to preventing such attacks. The incident has raised questions about the vetting of foreign nationals training in the US, with calls for more stringent measures.

The 4th Amendment Is Counting On You
Former President Donald Trump's intervention and a group of conservative House Republicans led to the defeat of a key procedural vote on the reauthorization of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). This has caused significant challenges for GOP leaders and Speaker Mike Johnson. The unexpected alliance between the dissenting Republicans and Democrats has stalled the legislation and highlighted the infighting within the GOP. The Senate is expected to pass the reauthorization, but conservative senators like Mike Lee and J.D. Vance are calling for reforms. The article captures the political dynamics and the ongoing debate over privacy rights and surveillance in the United States.

‘Unacceptable’: Biden denounced for bypassing Congress over Yemen strikes
Lawmakers from both parties criticized President Joe Biden for authorizing military strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen without congressional approval, reigniting debates over war powers. Biden justified the strikes as a response to Houthi attacks on international maritime vessels in the Red Sea. While some lawmakers supported the action as necessary to deter Iran, many progressives and conservatives condemned the bypassing of Congress, emphasizing constitutional requirements. The strikes also drew attention to Biden's previous stance on war authorization and calls for a ceasefire in Gaza.

Unsuccessful Vote for House Speaker, Key Issues Remain Unresolved
The U.S. House of Representatives failed to elect a new Speaker in the first round of voting, with no candidate achieving the necessary majority. Republican Jim Jordan, a conservative congressman from Ohio and close ally of former President Donald Trump, did not secure enough support. The Republicans, holding a slim majority, nominated Jordan, who initially gained significant backing but faced opposition from more than 50 Republicans. The House is currently without a leader during a volatile period, with crises emerging in the Middle East and Ukraine and a looming budget deadline that could lead to a government shutdown. The inability to elect a Speaker has prevented the House from responding to these crises, including supporting Israel following a brutal attack by Hamas and providing additional aid to Ukraine amidst a new Russian offensive. The situation raises concerns about the functionality of the U.S. government and its global leadership.

What happens now to the United States House of Representatives
The United States House of Representatives has passed a motion of no confidence to remove Speaker Kevin McCarthy, a long-standing member of the Republican Party. This marks the first time in U.S. history that the House has voted to remove a speaker. The successor to McCarthy is unclear, with internal Republican divisions between extremists and moderates complicating the selection. Interim Speaker Patrick McHenry, a moderate Republican, has limited powers and is overseeing the election of a new speaker. Potential candidates include Tom Cole, Tom Emmer, and Steve Scalise, with Scalise receiving support from Matt Gaetz. The Democrats support their leader Hakeem Jeffries, who previously challenged McCarthy for the role. With the Republicans holding a majority in the House, the next speaker is likely to be from their party. The timing for the election of a new speaker is uncertain, but it is crucial to have a fully functioning speaker by November 17 to avoid another government shutdown.

Trump 2.0: The Second Coming
Donald Trump's return to the White House in 2024 signals a shift in US domestic and international policies. His administration plans to focus on energy independence, reducing external engagements, and reshaping trade relations, particularly with China and India. Key appointments in his cabinet suggest a hard-line stance on policy, with a focus on domestic priorities and energy exports. Trump's foreign policy aims to resolve conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, while countering China's influence in the Indo-Pacific. The administration's protectionist stance may impact trade relations with India, while strengthening defense cooperation. The long-term impact of these policies on America's global standing remains uncertain.

Congress is at an impasse over a plan to avert a federal shutdown, with House Speaker Mike Johnson proposing a staggered funding approach that faces criticism from both parties. The Senate prefers a single continuing resolution at existing spending levels. The GOP's internal divisions and the looming funding deadline, along with international crises, complicate the situation. Johnson's plan includes separate expiration dates for various federal programs, but it lacks broad support. The White House and Senate Democrats oppose the GOP's approach, emphasizing the need to avoid a shutdown.
