'Scuttlebutt' suggests Mike Johnson is about to lose House majority: MS Now analyst
US Congressman #DougLaMalfa dies unexpectedly at 65
Ana Faguy, January 6, 2026
"Doug LaMalfa, a Republican Congressman from California, has died unexpectedly at age 65, colleagues announced on Tuesday.
[...]
"The congressman's cause of death was not immediately clear. LaMalfa was a former rice farmer elected to congress in 2013. He focused on water and agriculture issues during his tenure.
His death shaved an already-thin Republican majority in the US House of Representatives to just a few seats, following the resignation on Monday of former Trump ally #MarjorieTaylorGreene.
" 'He was a fantastic person,' Trump said. 'He voted with me 100% of the time.'
Minnesota Congressman Tom Emmer called his colleague a 'staunch advocate for his constituents and rural America'.
LaMalfa earned a degree in agriculture business from California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo.
He served as a state lawmaker before being elected to congress, where he fought for help for fire victims in his northern California district and "worked to protect families from #overregulation [you know, like pesticides and working in the heat without water, shit like that], ensure American farmers and ranchers can continue to feed the world' [by sticking to #monocrops and pesticide use], according to his congressional website.
"Greene's resignation and LaMalfa's death left Republicans with a 218-213 majority, meaning they have only a two-vote cushion - if three don't vote or side with Democrats, Republicans lose." [GOOD!]

Republican Doug LaMalfa, a California rice farmer who served seven terms in the U.S. House and was a reliable vote on President Donald Trump’s agenda, has died at age 65. LaMalfa's death reduces the GOP's narrow control of the House to 218 seats to Democrats’ 213. LaMalfa was a former state lawmaker and rice farmer who was first elected to Congress in 2012. The Butte County sheriff’s office says the congressman experienced a medical emergency Monday and died during a surgical procedure. LaMalfa's chief of staff says he was a funny guy who loved cars and classic rock. Democratic California Sen. Adam Schiff says LaMalfa was willing to work across the aisle to get things done.
