President Spencer appoints Sen. Hawley as interim SoHHS

James S. Brady Press Briefing Room, Washington D.C. — Today at a briefing from the commander-in-chief himself, President Patrick Spencer announced that Secretary Lamar Alexander would be departing the administration to focus on his health. This comes as a surprise due to Secretary Alexander being reconfirmed by the Senate only a mere 3 months ago.

“I had no quarrel with Mr. Alexander,” said President Spencer at the conference. “He was probably my most favorite health Secretary and closest healthcare allies. He left on better terms than my previous Secretaries. My administration wishes him the best of luck with his fight to stay alive.”


Andrew Lamar Alexander Jr., commonly known as Lamar Alexander, is a former Tennessee Governor and Education Secretary under the senior bush’s administration. He later joined the senate and in 2015 became the chairman of the HELP committee. He has since served as a close ally of President Spencer and has been a leading advisor to him on healthcare since the president's inauguration.

Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri has been appointed as Mr. Alexander’s replacement, confirmed by a White House letter.

Causing the organization “Northern Virginian Rally” to rally long the autonomous state borders. Eventually counter protesters attacked them and led to another gun fight with 7 dead, 19 injured. 

The President, however, called for the Army to be sent to declare “martial law” in the region. The region was already under an “state of emergency” put into place by Governor Northam. 

Sub-Governor Favola has declared the state separation of Northern Virginia. Meaning that Virginians state legislators of that region won’t be attending and thus lowering the quorum needed. They all signed an state constitution and are petitioning for the President to remove martial law. Many even calling for his impeachment of such usage of the military to exercise an executive order on Americans.

The North Virginia Community Defense Forces has been deployed to defend theirselves against an Army occupation and due to how entranced they are, many speculate that it would be impossible to get through.
