"Mike Johnson's Rise to House Speaker Sparks Controversy and Concern"

TL;DR Summary
Democrats are using a viral moment in which Republicans shouted down a reporter asking about Mike Johnson's efforts to overturn the 2020 election to launch attack ads against GOP members. The advocacy group Courage For America is targeting New York Republicans with the ad, aiming to define the new speaker and highlight the GOP's MAGA policies. Democrats hope this moment will come to define the GOP in 2024, similar to how Trump's Rose Garden event became a rallying cry for Democrats in the 2018 midterm elections.
