"House Republicans in Turmoil as Trump's Influence Sparks Conservative Rebellion and Threats to Speaker"

House Republicans, influenced by former President Donald Trump, descended into chaos as right-wing lawmakers derailed a vote on a controversial spying law, dealing a significant blow to House Speaker Mike Johnson. The move effectively froze the House and left the legislation in limbo, with conservative hardliners expressing frustration at Johnson's leadership. Efforts to renew the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act may face a clearer path in the Senate, where leaders on both sides agree on the need to extend the spying law. Trump's involvement and comments further exacerbated the House GOP's paralysis, with some members expressing preference for his advice over Johnson's.
