Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) “raised over $3.2 million in the first three months of this year,” Politico reports.

“That eye-popping haul came from over 100,000 individual donors, for an average donation of $32. Greene did not self-fund this quarter… That is a staggering sum of money for a House member, especially for a freshman who is more than a year out from her next election.”

“For context, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), then a freshman, raked in $728,000 in the first quarter of 2019.”

The downside for Democrats of removing Greene from her committee assignments is that she’s got nothing else to do but raise money.

New York Magazine: “There are now five vacancies in the U.S. House of Representatives… So the 222-213 margin by which Democrats originally held the House after the 2020 elections is currently at 218-212, pending special elections in May (Louisiana and Texas), June (New Mexico), and November (Ohio), with Florida’s date not yet established. The Texas and New Mexico districts are somewhat competitive but lean Republican and Democratic, respectively. The rest are not competitive.”

“Assuming the May special elections go as expected and cancel one another out, between now and June, Pelosi can afford to lose only two Democratic votes and still enact legislation.”

Earlier for members: Democrats Could Lose Their Majority at Any Time

If there’s anyone who can keep a slim Democratic majority unified it’s Nancy Pelosi.

During the final weeks of President Donald Trump’s administration, Rep. Matt Gaetz asked the White House for a blanket presidential pardon — a request that was ultimately not granted, the New York Times reports.

“Gaetz did not tell White House aides that he was under investigation for potential sex trafficking violations when he made the request. But top White House lawyers and officials viewed the request for a pre-emptive pardon as a nonstarter that would set a bad precedent.”

It’s totally normal to seek a blanket pardon if you haven’t done anything wrong.
