Episode description

Upheaval in the GOP – House Speaker Mike Johnson is in danger of losing his position. Sources say Democrats are willing to save him if he outlines a pathway to providing aid for Ukraine, which has been stalled for months and badly divides the GOP.

 

While Congress just ended a saga over funding the US government, one that cost the previous Speaker his job in an unprecedented uprising last fall, the new Speaker is facing a similar revolt over the major deal he just cut with the White House to avoid a shutdown.

 

This opens up a new front in the internal GOP war that has defined the 118th Congress and could put Republicans razor thin majority in jeopardy in November.
