Yes, I thought it was a bad idea to appoint Lee Zeldin to the EPA, too. Not because he's a bad pick, but because the GOP barely has a majority.

The New York Democrat party, led by Lethal Nurse Kathy Hochul, has passed a law delaying the special election to replace Stefanik, to keep any Republican from serving in that seat.

In addition, now comes the threat of a third-party run in the district, to divide up the anti-Democrat vote and throw the seat to the Democrats.

Trump made the right call here. Yes, she's a good trooper who should get her reward, but we just don't have enough seats to give this one up now.
