"Furious Conservatives Stop Short of Threatening Speaker Johnson's Job"
House conservatives are furious about the government funding bill negotiated by Speaker Mike Johnson, calling it a betrayal of Republican promises to cut spending. Despite their anger, they are not threatening to overthrow Johnson, indicating a shift in mindset as they realize the challenges of bending Congress to their will. Some members blame Johnson for not standing up to the Senate, while others acknowledge the difficulty of the situation. Democrats are pleased to see Johnson side with the majority of his conference on funding the government, but they urge him to do the same on aid for Ukraine.
