But the (current) minority leaders who are expected to step into the chair when the new majority is seated are all selected by leadership with caucus.
The House chairs responsible for oversight appropriations and judiciary are all talking as if they mean business. And they were all put in place by Jeffries and the caucus. If he tried to replace them he would be cutting off his own nuts.
I have more confidence in their future actions than I do in the Senate. We’ll see how that shakes out.
