It’s far from a sure thing, as there would be big hurdles to clear. Burnham would first need to return to Parliament, where he could then try to mount a challenge to Starmer’s leadership.

On Friday’s broadcast of C-SPAN’s “Ceasefire,” Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) said that the TikTok deal gives the Chinese Communist Party control over the app, Congress has to do oversight on the TikTok deal, “and push to what the legal objective” of the legislation passed by Congress on TikTok was. Rep. Jake Auchincloss (D-MA) said, “TikTok is what Xi Jinping calls the smokeless battlefield. It’s why we passed it, and it’s — but it’s why it’s so regrettable that the deal that the president has pushed does not actually execute the bill that Congress passed. What it does is it moves…
