Questions re: us house results.

Looking more and more like a 220-215 R majority.

Assuming all the races go the same direction in counting, this is what we will end up with. The other two likely scenarios are 221-214 or 219-216. Regardless, there will be at most a 4 seat majority for Republicans or as little as a 2 seat majority. Here are my questions:

Which Republicans are vulnerable to criminal prosecution? And how vulnerable to flipping control -even before a speaker is elected (through defections or vacancies), is the us house going to be?

She even asked the Orange Asshole for a pardon. Innocent people don't do that.
And there's also Gaetz. Anyone else?
