  • Onward and upward: Dan Kunsman, Sen. John Barrasso’s (R., Wyo.), current chief of staff, will be heading up his Whip office. Congratulations!

  • Notable quotable: RealClearPolicy picked up the op-ed that Protect the Public’s Trust’s Michael Chamberlain wrote for us about how the Biden administration has been “Trump-proofing” itself for months.

  • Florida men on the move: President Donald Trump has already made his picks in the races to succeed Florida Reps. Matt Gaetz and Mike Waltz. Trump is packing Jimmy Patronis, Florida’s Chief Financial Officer in the wide-open race to succeed Gaetz, and state Senator Randy Fine to succeed Waltz.

  • Making his pitch: Rep. Mike Carey (R., Ohio) has been making the rounds pitching himself as the logical successor to Sen. JD Vance (R., Ohio.). Gov. Mike DeWine (R., Ohio.) gets the final say in the decision.

  • Kamala 2026? Kamala 2028? Kamala Harris has a surprising ally as she deliberates her political future: Dan Conston, the president of the Congressional Leadership Fund super PAC. Harris is reportedly weighing everything from another presidential campaign to a bid for governor of California in 2026, when Gov. Gavin Newsom will be term-limited. Following her campaign’s implosion, Conston tweeted “endorse” for either of her plans.

  • Drink up: Jen Psaki was spotted at the Israeli coffee shop Tatte.
