  <description>After securing a narrow victory in the House of Representatives waste no time in selecting California Republican Kevin McCarthy, all but guaranteeing he will become the next House Speaker in January. Similarly Senate Republicans easily re-elected Mitch McConnel to continue acting as the longest-serving GOP Senate leader in history. These deeply establishment selections ensure Republicans will plod along the path of big-government policy and continue the Great American Decline. Also this week Rob Kendall and Ethan Hatcher debate the merits of the marriage bill which passed a procedural vote in the Senate, and Donald Trump announces his bid for re-election. Hear these stories and more on this week's episode of Saturday Night on the Circle!

  <description>The Republican Midterm dreams were dashed as the Red Wave collapsed into a wet fart, undecided races in just a handful of states could determine the fate of the Senate and House, ultimately the Congress could be split. This was far from the rebuke on President Biden that many had hoped for, but where did messaging go wrong for what should have been an easy victory? Tune into this weeks episode as we reflect on what happened, gest Tony Kinnett joins to offer his opinions. Jason Hammer joins later to add some levity to an otherwise depressing broadcast soured by losses at the ballot box.
