John McHale is a politician who's currently serving as Mayor of Providence since September 1, 2024, his second stint in the position. He previously served as the 2nd President of Faru from June 3 to July 13 2024. His Presidency was noted for him taking a more active role in day-to-day governance than previous or subsequent Presidents, holding multiple cabinet meetings and frequently speaking before the Farun Senate. He has been a member of the PPSU/United/Reform Party, and is currently a member of the Liberal-Conservative Party. Despite his ostensible opposition during his Presidency, he shares many ideological similarities with the Liberal wing of the LCP, which he is now a prominent member of. Both his rise to and fall from power would be dramatic; he would be unexpectedly swept into power during the June election with the largest margin in Farun history (58%), but would narrowly lose re-election to Libertarian Priest Viktor in the subsequent July Presidential election thanks to a conspiracy by Chief Justice Francis Urquhart. He also dissolved the Senate shortly before his loss, allowing the New Farun Labor party to take power for the first time.
