I recently switched away from SmartNews because it keeps getting into a mode where it 1) can’t load the stories, or 2) seems to load but just shows a black screen beyond a certain point, or 3) crashes. I hung on for awhile, hoping it would get fixed, but once I heard about the internal turmoil, I gave up.

What doesn’t seem sustainable to me is the Repubican party caucus. The right is incensed that McCarthy “caved to the Democrats”. I suspect a motion to vacate will be raised.
