"House Speaker Johnson Faces Revolt Over Spending Deal, Threatening Government Shutdown"

House Republicans are in revolt over a spending deal, scrambling plans to prevent a government shutdown next week. While the Senate took steps to pass a stopgap funding bill, hard-right House Republicans are pushing Speaker Mike Johnson to renege on the budget deal and demanding alternate ways to fund the government. Tensions within the Republican conference are high, with some warning of negative political consequences if the deal is rejected, while others advocate for leveraging a partial government shutdown to achieve spending cuts.
