House Republican Meeting Turns Into Shouting Match

“A late-night meeting in House Speaker Mike Johnson’s office went off the rails Tuesday night, with multiple sources describing the session as one of the most contentious this year,” the Washington Sun reports.

“The meeting was described by sources as one of the craziest meetings they had ever been part of.”

“Less than a day after the contentious meeting, the speaker announced the House was finishing up work early and sending members home until after the midterms.”

Sending members home before midterms signals Johnson knows he can’t control what happens if they stay.
