The House Republicans Who Have Had Enough

January 8, 2024 Republicans, House, enough0 comment

House Republicans didn’t exactly have a banner year in 2023. They made history for all the wrong reasons. Last January, they presided over the most protracted election for speaker in a century, and nine months later, for good measure, lawmakers ejected their leader, Kevin McCarthy, for the first time ever. Last month, the House expelled one of its own, George Santos, for only the sixth time. The rest of the year wasn’t any more productive. Thanks in part to Republican discord, the House passed fewer bills that became laws than…

The Republicans Have No Majority

November 17, 2023 Majority, Republicans0 comment

Mike Johnson now knows what Kevin McCarthy was dealing with. At the new speaker’s behest, House Republicans today relied on Democratic votes to avert a government shutdown by passing legislation that contains neither budget cuts nor conservative policy priorities.

Johnson is unlikely to suffer the same fate, at least not yet. But today’s vote laid…

The switch, Trump said, would be “a disaster for the Election of Republicans, including your favorite President, ME!” Trump’s panic is consistent with his (baseless) view that any reforms designed to increase voter turnout, such as expanding mail balloting and early voting, are part of a Democratic conspiracy to rig…

Washington, D.C. – Following the vote by a majority of Complicit Caucus members – 12 of the 18 House Republicans from swing districts Biden carried in 2020 – endorsing Representative Jim Jordan as speaker of the House, MoveOn Political Action Executive Director Rahna Epting released the following statement: “These swing district House Republicans are lining up behind a lawmaker who voted with the insurrectionists on January 6, ignored sexual assault allegations, cooked up a bogus impeachment scam, supports a national abortion ban, and hasn’t passed a single bill in 16…
