Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) speaks at a news conference in Statuary Hall of the U.S. Capitol Building on January 12, 2023 in Washington, DC. | Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images | | | | |  | DRIVING THE DAY | | FIRST IN PLAYBOOK — ENGAGED: Rep. STENY HOYER (D-Md.) and ELAINE KAMARCK, senior fellow in governance studies and founding director of the Center for Effective Public Management at the Brookings Institution. They are planning to get married later this year, Playbook has learned. SHE’S RUNNING — The Post and Courier: “Cementing what has been in the works for months, former South Carolina Gov. NIKKI HALEY will formally announce she is running for president and will seek the Republican nomination for her party’s 2024 ticket, The Post and Courier has learned. “According to an invitation soon going out to her backers, Haley’s advertised ‘special announcement’ will come Feb. 15 at the The Shed at the Charleston Visitor Center, a downtown gathering spot that could draw hundreds of supporters into the heart of the city’s tourism district. “The confirmation she is entering the race came Jan. 31 from a member of Haley’s inner circle.” WHEN JOE MEETS KEVIN — JOE BIDEN and KEVIN McCARTHY are scheduled to meet today in the Oval Office at 3:15 p.m. Keep your expectations in check. “Boring,” a top White House official said, when we asked about the first one-on-one session between the president and new House speaker. “First meeting of a hundred to follow.” McCarthy has set a similarly low bar. “I think the first thing he should do,” McCarthy told reporters on Tuesday, “especially as president of the United States, is say he’s willing to sit down and find a common ground and negotiate together.” The White House released a memo setting its own limited priorities for the meeting, saying Biden will pose two questions to McCarthy today:
- “Will the Speaker commit to the bedrock principle that the United States will never default on its financial obligations…?”
- “When will Speaker McCarthy and House Republicans release their Budget?”
The two men don’t have much history together. McCarthy is mentioned only once in Biden’s memoir. “I got hold of the Republicans’ new House majority leader to invite him to a breakfast at the Naval Observatory, where the two of us could sit in private and talk about where we might find some ground for cooperation on the budget, or infrastructure spending, or immigration legislation,” Biden wrote of an invitation he extended in early 2015. “I had worked hard to develop a relationship with Majority Leader ERIC CANTOR, but now that Eric had lost his seat, I had to start over with Kevin McCarthy.” Not much came of that effort. As 2015 rolled on, McCarthy became focused on becoming speaker and Biden became focused on becoming president. Biden was grappling with the illness and then death of his son BEAU, and he was squeezed out of the 2016 Democratic presidential primaries by HILLARY CLINTON’s decision to run. McCarthy was dealing with gossip about his personal life and was squeezed out of the speakership and replaced by PAUL RYAN. While Biden is 22 years older than McCarthy, it seemed as if each man had reached the peak of his career as No. 2 and could never ascend to the top job. There were obvious similarities: two men of Irish ancestry with chips on their shoulders who are frequently underestimated. Both men would be loath to admit they share much with the other. Their mutual antipathy is well-known in Washington. Bob Woodward and Robert Costa captured it well in a scene in their book, “Peril,” describing McCarthy talking to House GOP colleagues weeks after the 2020 presidential election: “McCarthy was pessimistic about any relationship with Biden. ‘He's a Senate man. He's always going to go to the Senate.’ Biden had not called him yet, McCarthy noted, although several allies told him his refusal to acknowledge Biden as president-elect was the reason. Nothing personal.” For Biden’s first two years, when NANCY PELOSI was speaker, Biden had enough trouble wrangling House Democrats to support his agenda. McCarthy was irrelevant. And when it took McCarthy 15 ballots and four excruciating days to be elected in her place, Biden was unimpressed. “Look at what the present leader of the Republican Party — a decent man, I think, McCarthy — look — look what he had to do,” Biden told donors Tuesday afternoon at a DNC fundraiser in Manhattan. “He had to make commitments that are just absolutely off the wall for a speaker of the House to make in terms of being able to become the leader.” Biden is betting that those off-the-wall promises are impossible to keep. The White House strategy, therefore, is patience. House Republicans are divided, and Biden’s team believes McCarthy is unlikely to craft a budget plan that can secure 218 votes given the internal contradictions within his conference among libertarians, defense hawks, and moderates representing Biden districts. McCarthy’s effort to do so will be wrenching and instructive, they believe, and will shape the contours of the debate as the debt ceiling deadline approaches in early summer. Between now and then Biden will deliver the State of the Union address, release his budget, and (likely) announce his reelection. McCarthy, meanwhile, will have several committees revving up investigations of Biden, his son HUNTER, and several administration policies, all of which will affect this new relationship. They are a long way from any deal, in other words, and everyone is right to keep expectations for today’s meeting exceedingly low. — Related reads: “House GOP sets its expectations low for McCarthy-Biden debt meeting,” by Sarah Ferris, Olivia Beavers and Caitlin Emma … “In Debt Limit Fight, Republicans Won’t Say What Spending Cuts They Want,” by NYT’s Alan Rappeport … “How a group of Democrats and Republicans could bypass McCarthy and lift the debt ceiling,” by Fox News’s Chad Pergram Good Wednesday morning.

By wide margins, voters say our country is safer and more prosperous when we develop our own energy. Presidents from both parties, stretching back more than 50 years, were firmly on the side of energy and fuel production here at home. API has a plan in three parts to Make, Move, and Improve American energy. | | | JUST POSTED — “Bias and Human Error Played Parts in F.B.I.’s Jan. 6 Failure, Documents Suggest,” by NYT’s Adam Goldman and Alan Feuer: “Days before the end of the 2020 presidential race, a team of F.B.I. analysts tried to game out the worst potential outcomes of a disputed election. But of all the scenarios they envisioned, the one they never thought of was the one that came to pass: a violent mob mobilizing in support of former President DONALD J. TRUMP.“ FEC WRAPUP — Midnight was the year-end reporting deadline for congressional and presidential campaigns, and Playbook spotted a few fascinating tidbits in the flood of last-minute filings:
- Retirement watch is now in overdrive for Sen. DIANNE FEINSTEIN (D-Calif.) after she raised a mere $558 in Q4, and it’s certainly gearing up for Sen. BEN CARDIN (D-Md.), who raised less than $30,000. (h/t Matt Holt)
- Leading the 2024 Senate class, meanwhile, were RICK SCOTT (R-Fla.) with $3.4 million raised on the quarter, JACKY ROSEN (D-Nev.) with $1.5 million and TED CRUZ (R-Texas) with $1.2 million. The overall fattest campaigns accounts, however, belonged to two independents: BERNIE SANDERS ($9.7 million) and KYRSTEN SINEMA ($8.2 million). (h/t Rob Pyers)
- Hoya Saxa: Former Sen. RICHARD SHELBY (R-Ala.) disbursed $4 million in unused funds to Georgetown University, where his wife ANNETTE is professor emerita. (h/t Jake Sherman)
- Trump's Save America PAC spent $16 million for the year on lawyers and $152,000 on “strategy consulting” from HERVÉ PIERRE BRAILLARD, former hairdresser to MELANIA TRUMP. (h/t Rob Pyers)

| | | | A message from The American Petroleum Institute (API): Making American Energy: We face a global energy supply crisis. Americans are increasingly poised to suffer under the biggest imbalance between energy supply and demand in a generation. America needs more of what’s under our feet – more natural gas, more oil, more fuels. Smart energy policies are critical to supporting U.S. economic growth and strengthening U.S. energy security. U.S. producers increased production in 2022, but more is needed. Lifting development restrictions on federal lands and waters could add an average of 77,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day through 2035 and generate $2.8 billion for the federal government. As the world’s leading producer of natural gas and oil, America can advance an affordable, reliable, and cleaner future by developing more energy and refining more fuels in America where they’re produced to among the highest standards in the world.
