“On every major issue Congress is currently considering, Johnson is not only out of step with Senate Democrats and the Biden administration — but he’s also out of step with Senate Republican leadership, which has its own unique set of challenges.”

Playbook: “The Mike Johnson-Chuck Schumer relationship now runs Washington, and it’s starting off on a less than great foot as the new GOP speaker and Democratic Senate majority leader face down a raft of challenges in the months ahead.”
