Gaetz moves to oust Speaker McCarthy 

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 14:27:09 GMT

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) on Monday moved to force a vote on ousting Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), following through with his pledge to do so after the Speaker put a “clean” continuing resolution (CR) to fund the government on the House floor.A vote on the motion to vacate the chair will have to be brought up within two legislative days. But it is likely that the House, rather than voting on the resolution itself, would first vote on some mechanism to kill or delay it, such as voting to table the resolution.McCarthy, for his part, is exuding confidence amid the effort to oust him. "Bring it on," he wrote on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, after Gaetz made the motion.The Speaker told reporters Monday morning that his support within the House GOP conference is “very strong,” and he said Sunday “I’ll survive” if a vote is brought against him.“Let's get over with it and let's start governing. If he's upset because he tried to push us in a shutdown and I made sure governme...

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 14:27:09 GMT

On Sunday afternoon when Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields put on a throwing clinic, Denver needed a disruptor in the pass rush, and second-year outside linebacker Nik Bonitto stepped up to the challenge.In the fourth quarter, with the Broncos on the brink of overcoming a 21-point deficit, Bonitto burst into the backfield.

Fellow outside linebacker Jonathon Cooper recovered the ball and scored a 35-yard touchdown to tie the game at 28 with 6:55 remaining.In the Broncos’ 31-28 victory over the Bears, Bonitto’s strip sack was game-changing. According to Next Gen Stats, Denver’s win probability was 3.5% when it trailed 28-7 with 4:18 to go in the third quarter. The Broncos’ chances jumped to 37.2% after Bonitto’s big play.“(Bonitto and Cooper) deserve a lot more credit than they’re going to get,” Broncos defensive tackle D.J.

Sean Payton’s “Jets fiasco” dampened some by Aaron Rodgers’ injury and slow starts, but Nathaniel Hackett’s return still will feel “personal”

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 14:27:09 GMT

Sean Payton already had that feeling as he discussed his first win as Broncos head coach Sunday afternoon that the good vibes wouldn’t last long.“There will be some tough tape,” he said at one point.“We’re going to face a lot better teams,” he said at another.But he did allow a smirk as he encouraged his players to enjoy their first win of the 2023 season, for a few hours at least, before turning their attention to a circled-on-the-calendar Week 5 matchup.“Then, we get ready to go next week and we can dive into the whole Jets fiasco stuff,” Payton said.The fiasco, of course, stems from Payton’s explosive comments to USA Today during training camp. He called the 15-game tenure of former Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett — now the Jets’ offensive coordinator — “maybe one of the worst coaching jobs in the history of the NFL. That’s how bad it was.” He suggested the Jets leaned into the Aaron Rodgers hype machine this offseason and could well fall short of expectations. He ques...

Denver Public Schools reimbursed $3,500 of Auon’tai Anderson’s legal fees last year in a settlement never meant to be made public

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 14:27:09 GMT

Denver Public Schools quietly paid school board Vice President Auon’tai Anderson a $3,500 settlement last year to help cover legal fees he incurred when the Board of Education investigated anonymous and unsubstantiated allegations of sexual assault made against him. The settlement was never intended to be made public, according to the legal agreement, which specifies Anderson and DPS can’t acknowledge its existence or release the document — even under Colorado’s public records act — unless required by law or court order.With Anderson’s consent, DPS released a copy of the settlement agreement Monday after The Denver Post and Chalkbeat Colorado published stories detailing the transaction and the district’s repeated refusal to release the settlement.“It is unfathomable that any public school district would include a provision in a settlement agreement by which it commits to withhold that public record from disclosure under the Colorado Open Records A...
