House Speaker Mike Johnson is imploring his fellow Republicans to stop venting their frustrations in public and bring their complaints to him directly.
Increasingly, they’re ignoring him.
Cracks inside the GOP conference were stark this week as a member of Johnson’s own leadership team openly accused him of lying, rank-and-file Republicans acted unilaterally to force votes and a leadership-backed bill faltered. It’s all underscored by growing worries that the party is on a path towards losing the majority next year.
Prescient implies it wasn’t a well understood evil. Whigs and Tories were the dudebros at the time and for over 100 years prior… He was not prescient, just capable of using his eyes.
