Len Berman and Michael Riedel in the Morning:
Nearly two years after he left the U.S. House of Representatives in a failed bid to oust Kathy Hochul as New York governor, Tom Suozzi returned to his old job in Washington on Wednesday, as he was sworn in to represent New York’s 3rd Congressional district. The saga of George Santos may be over, but the disfunction on Capitol Hill is still there, and Suozzi chose to address that chaos in his first speech on the floor. In his first interview since being sworn in, Suozzi spoke with Len and Michael about why he challenged his fellow representatives to stop bickering and start working together.
The Michigan primary is the latest stop now in the rearview mirror on the road to the White House, and as with every other primary or caucus, Donald Trump emerged the overwhelming winner on the GOP side.

US Representative Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY 11TH) is among those who feel Haley fought the good fight, and she talked with Len and Michael this week about whether the time has come for Haley to finally admit the inevitable and call it a campaign.
