House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has made good on his promise to reject the placement of certain Democrats on congressional committees, but has yet to remove George Santos. Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, has announced that they will let Donald Trump back on their platforms in the coming week after his two year suspension. NBC News is reporting that Marjorie Taylor Greene is supposedly angling to be Trump’s 2024 pick for Vice President.
