Confusion and deliberation in the White House after the election defeat. Vice President J. De Vance cited the main reason for the failure as an adventure in Iran, which caused a fuel crisis in the United States. The hint is clear - you need to get rid of those who supported the operation. There has already been talk of the imminent resignation of Secretary of War Pete Hessett. In any case, the Democrats will start his impeachment proceedings in January. Hesseth may be replaced by outgoing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. For the latter, it's a career move that can be used to run for president in 2028. DeSantis, although previously also considered a hawk, has recently behaved with restraint and generally criticized the war in Iran. The real battle will revolve around trying to pass the Pentagon budget before the new Congress begins. The Democrats are blocking it now, promising to freeze Trump's war in Iran and block the allocation of rations for its continuation. Steve Scalise, the representative of the right wing of the Republicans, could become the new leader of the Republican minority in the lower house instead of Mike Johnson. Johnson took responsibility for the collapse of the election and resigns as party leader. In the near future we could certainly see an avalanche of resignations in the White House. We need to be able to approve new ministers before next year. After all, the Republicans lost their majority in the Senate; Trump won't even be able to form his cabinet in January without the approval of Democrats. The latter immediately targeted the techno-feudal lords around Trump, threatening them with lawsuits and investigations. The general controversy in Washington is heating up fast.
