Johnson two days ago: "The Speaker of the House is not involved in that. Can't be involved in that." Johnson today: "I'm going to strongly request that the Ethics Committee not issue the report because that is not the way we do things in the House."

NEWS from @Reporter_Mia: Speaker Johnson weighs in on whether the Gaetz ethics committee report should be released. "I'm going to strongly request that the Ethics Committee not issue the report because that is not the way we do things in the House, and I think that would be a…
New - Rep. Brandon Gill was just elected freshman class president. We scooped that he was running this week.
Kevin Cramer on Gaetz: "I have concerns he can't get across the finish line, and we're going to spend a lot of political capital." Lisa Murkowski on Trump's picks: "The real question is... Does the Senate have the same level of comfort" for Trump's picks as he does
So. It’s RFK Jr. There is no precedent for this in public health — someone who has spent years questioning the safety of vaccines now potentially overseeing the federal agency charged with vaccine safety. w @LaurenWeberHP @jdawsey1 @michaelscherer washingtonpost.com/health/2024/11…

In @PunchbowlNews Midday: There is some precedent for the Ethics Committee releasing a report after a member resigns. In 1987, the committee released a report about former Rep. BILL BONER after he resigned to be mayor of Nashville. link.punchbowl.news/click/37480869…
NEW: In a letter sent to Biden before election & made public now since there’s been no WH response, more than 80 Dem members of Congress press Biden admin to sanction members of Israeli Govt. for the rise in settler violence, etc., in the West Bank in his final weeks in office.
SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON huddled today with JOHN THUNE, new senate majority leader.
Sen. Collins, a member of the Senate Intel Committee, says Tulsi Gabbard is “a nominee that illustrates the importance of a full background check, a public hearing, and the constitutional role of the Senate on advice and consent, rather than doing some sort of recess appointment”
“Protect the President” from his own pick for AG is a fascinating construction here, as Senate Republicans who have largely super glued themselves to Trump now may be looking for ways to not confirm his most controversial cabinet selection yet
Sen. Cornyn (R-Texas) wants to see the Gaetz ethics report. He sits on Senate Judiciary “I can’t understand any situation under which we would deny ourselves access to full and complete information. Part of this is not only to determine fitness for the nominee, it’s also to…

Please tell me how the Senate subpoenas a House report. Does this mean the House can now subpoena Senate report, including from the Senate Ethics Cmte? How does the Senate enforce a subpoena?
