How New York Democrats Could Redistrict George Santos—And the Republican Majority—Out of the House
Good morning from the Hive newsroom! If Democrats get their way in court, George Santos may have an even harder path toward reelection, Chris Smith writes. Smith finds New York Democrats in yet another redistricting fight, in hopes of bringing back a liberal-favored congressional map that could give the party a better chance of reclaiming the House majority.
In Congress, Abigail Tracy followed Kevin McCarthy as he successfully got a debt ceiling deal through the House. But it may not be a clean victory; already Republican lawmakers are threatening his Speakership, Tracy reports. That said, the deal, Molly Jong-Fast writes, proves Joe Biden’s mettle in a challenging political climate. Plus, Katherine Eban has the latest in the COVID origin debate, with the former China CDC director telling her that the lab leak theory shouldn’t be ruled out. Thanks for reading.
