The Power Struggle Within the GOP: McCarthy's Triumph and Revenge.

House conservatives, mostly from the Trump-aligned Freedom Caucus, are seeking revenge on GOP leaders for what they see as Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s broken promises during the debt drama. They are now working to derail senior Republicans’ plans to pass even widely popular party priorities on the floor this week and are pushing for spending cuts this fall that would essentially renege on last week’s debt deal. McCarthy and his leadership team are still working to reach a truce with the members who are refusing to allow floor action, delivering a humiliating blow to the speaker days after a debt agreement that his allies considered a huge victory.
