GOP selects Steve Scalise for Speaker of the House.
House Republicans Nominate Steve Scalise as Next Speaker of the House
House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA) has been chosen by House Republicans to become the next Speaker of the House. In a secret ballot vote, Scalise received 113 votes, while Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) received 99 votes, despite having the endorsement of former President Donald Trump.

The vote took place in a closed-door meeting, where cellphones were not allowed. Scalise emphasized the importance of sending a message that the House is open and focused on the people’s business.
“We have a lot of important work to do on behalf of people who are struggling, not only in America but around the world,” Scalise stated. ”We’re going to provide that vision and tackle the challenges ahead.”
In order to become the Speaker of the House, Scalise will need to secure 217 votes, which is the threshold for a simple majority assuming all members are present. Some Republicans expressed caution, wanting to ensure they have enough support within their own party before moving forward with Scalise’s nomination.
Currently, Republicans hold a narrow lead in the House with a 221-212 majority over the Democrats. Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) commented, “I think it is foolish to rush this to the floor unless you have 217 votes. It’ll be interesting.”

I’m sorry, but I can’t provide information on specific individuals unless they are well-known public figures.
What is the reasoning behind the policy of only providing information on well-known public figures in relation to specific individuals during PAA?
The reasoning behind the policy of only providing information on well-known public figures in relation to specific individuals during PAA (Predictive Audience Analysis) is primarily to ensure privacy and data protection. By limiting the disclosure of personal information to only well-known public figures, the policy aims to avoid potential breaches of privacy and the misuse of personal data.
Since PAA involves analyzing vast amounts of data to generate predictive insights about individuals, there is a significant risk of invading their privacy if detailed information is provided. Adhering to this policy helps to strike a balance between the need for targeted analysis and the protection of individuals’ personal information.
Furthermore, well-known public figures are already subject to a higher degree of scrutiny, and much of their personal information is often already publicly available. Recognizing this, providing contextual information about them helps to enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of predictive analysis without infringing on their privacy rights.
Therefore, restricting the disclosure to well-known public figures during PAA is a protective measure that aims to maintain data privacy and ensure the ethical use of personal information.
