Republicans are projected to keep control of the House of Representatives, handing the party total control of Washington with former President Trump back in the White House in January.
Decision Desk HQ projected the GOP would hold the House by winning its 218th seat on Monday, the number needed for a majority in the lower chamber.
But consider the outcome if democrats hadn’t committed genocide. The republicans might have taken all three branches of government.

I have no idea what the “parliamentarian” is, so every time I read a post about it I’m imagining some anonymous figure with a Mandalorian helmet sitting in congress looking serious.
nobody else did either, until they trotted her out to put the kibosh on… I think it was student debt relief?
I think it’s some rules lawyer expert like people are saying. IIRC they brought it out because they were making a Reconciliation Budget Bill, which they do like only once or twice a year, and the rules are that bill has a lower threshold to pass (since everything is filibustered now you need 60% to basically do anything else) but it has to be budget related stuff. When there was a question on whether some progressive legislation counted, the parliamentarian came out to read the ancient scrolls and divine from the stars that it didn’t count and couldn’t be put in the bill.
Good job Dems, I hope you’re happy
If you’re still in line, stay in line. They have to let you vote.
