THE MATH, from Haley Talbot:

It takes two-thirds majority to succeed, so 290.

Assuming all Dems support it, would need around 77 Republicans to join.

24 Republicans already supported it last time.

So 53 new Republicans need to sign on; 7 already have said they have.

NEWS: House Ethics Chair Michael Guest will make motion to expel Santos at next pro forma, teeing up action when Congress returns from recess.

The thinking is that having Guest do the motion will be seen as less political and give other members more cover to back it, per source
