This move highlights the little control McCarthy has over his own party, with lawmakers frustrated over the "Dysfunction Caucus" grinding business to a halt. McCarthy relies on the far-right flank to keep power, and the stalemate shows the challenges of leading a narrow majority reliant on its most extreme members.
