Washington Post: “Since Republicans took control of the House in January, a small group of far-right lawmakers forced the longest speaker nomination contest in U.S. history, paralyzed legislation on the House floor, threatened to breach the U.S. borrowing limit, then deposed former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) for working with Democrats to fund the government.”

“And yet for all that, the federal government is currently spending the same amount as it did before House Republicans took office.”
