McCarthy faces both the pressure of an impending shutdown and the risk that any wrong move could lead to a call for him to be ousted as speaker.
, has emerged as the chief foil to McCarthy. The Florida Republican rallied GOP lawmakers to resist McCarthy's bid to become speaker in January and is now openly threatening a bid to remove him from the office.
As House Republicans scrambled to find a path forward this week, Rep. Matt Rosendale, a Republican fiscal hard-liner, blasted GOP leadership for failing to bring up spending bills for House votes long before the end of the fiscal year. “When they stop the bills from coming up, and if he votes against a continuing resolution, it’s my fault? That's interesting,” McCarthy said.
McCarthy has tried to drag Biden into the debate, calling on him to meet with Republicans to discuss the border security proposals that the speaker wants to attach to the temporary funding legislation.A government shutdown is almost inevitable at this point. But the duration of the shutdown, as well as the future of McCarthy's speakership, is impossible to predict.
