Washington Post: “House Republicans finally felt they were done going through the stages of grief. Over months of infighting, emotions ran the gamut from denial to depression while they watched the conference struggle with the aftermath of ousting the speaker of the House. But many Republican lawmakers had begun to accept that their slim majority was unlikely to find compromise within its ranks, and while personal animosity among some members persisted, it had waned significantly.”
“Then, on Friday afternoon after a grueling multiweek stretch of debates over government funding, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) handed a single sheet of paper to the House clerk that detailed a motion to remove House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) from his role, once again ripping open the wounds of the past five months.”
