Australia has a much better system. If their parliament fails to do their job and pass a budget, everyone loses their job and a new parliament is elected. Republicans are a terrorist group.

Enjoy, red state republiQans! This never-ending clusterfuck of dipshittery is your doing! Lick it up!

Ultraconservative House Republicans have panned the $1.66 trillion agreement Mr. Johnson made with Senator Chuck Schumer, the New York Democrat and majority leader, saying it is unacceptable.

I mean, yeah, that’s what they usually do. The Freedom Caucus exists solely on the principals of contrarianism, they say “no” to everything. Did they convince enough of anyone else to join with them? No? Then it’s just your average Tuesday.

It is not clear whether disgruntled right-wing Republicans will try to depose Mr. Johnson as they did his predecessor. But they have already signaled that the latitude some of them afforded him during his first weeks in the job is vanishing, and that their patience is wearing thin with his capitulations to Democrats.

Yes, this is why it was such a stupid idea to have a vote to oust the Speaker if a single person was unhappy. That’s like the non-secret of the the Freedom Caucus, they’re always unhappy.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Congress on Monday began an uphill push to pass a new bipartisan spending agreement into law in time to avoid a partial government shutdown next week, with Speaker Mike Johnson encountering stiff resistance from his far-right flank to the deal he struck with Democrats.

Ultraconservative House Republicans have panned the $1.66 trillion agreement Mr. Johnson made with Senator Chuck Schumer, the New York Democrat and majority leader, saying it is unacceptable.

The agreement essentially hews to the bargain that Congress passed last year to suspend the debt ceiling, which the hard right opposed at the time and had hoped to scale back.

The backlash from the extreme right underscored anew that Mr. Johnson will most likely have to rely on substantial Democratic support to pass the spending bills underlying the agreement.

The result is that Mr. Johnson finds himself in a predicament similar to the one that led to the ouster of Kevin McCarthy last fall — overseeing a minuscule majority while facing a potential government shutdown and having to cut a deal with Democrats in the Senate and the White House that is certain to draw opposition and an outcry from the far right.

“Are we learning that negotiating with the Democrats in the White House and Senate with a slim majority is hard and you can’t get everything you want, no matter who is in the Speaker’s office?” Representative Mike Collins, Republican of Georgia, wrote on social media.

They’ll have to suspend the rules of a 2/3rds vote.
