House GOP's 10-week meltdown: A farcical struggle for votes

The House GOP is facing internal turmoil and dysfunction, with Republicans unable to agree on policy priorities or fund the government without Democratic support. Lawmakers are going rogue on the House floor, engaging in theatrical efforts to censure colleagues and impeach members of the Biden administration. The party's slim margins and infighting have led to a sense of frustration and a growing number of retirements. House Speaker Mike Johnson and his leadership team have managed to keep the chamber functioning, but only with help from Democrats. The tensions within the GOP are high, and there are concerns about the party's ability to regain control and work together effectively.
