Inside Mike Johnson’s Déjà Vu Cycle of Failed Rule Votes

Axios: “Johnson presided over the ninth failed rule vote of his less-than-three-year-long speakership last week, this one tanked by 13 of his members.”

”Frustration in the conference with a small band of conservatives who keep using procedural rule votes — once a rubber stamp for the majority — as leverage to force action on unrelated priorities extends well beyond the speaker and his leadership team.”

”It was the fifth failed vote on a rule in this Congress, and the 12th since Republicans took the majority in January 2023. Before that, a rule hadn’t failed in two decades.”

CNN: Republicans are incredibly frustrated.
