Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, already presiding over a razor-thin and increasingly fragile Republican majority, is facing his most significant challenge yet as a \u201cbombshell\u201d resignation demand from Lauren Boebert threatens to topple the precarious balance of power. What was once a unified front against Democratic policy has dissolved into a circular firing squad, with high-profile members trading expulsion resolutions and public accusations of criminal behavior that have left the American electorate stunned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dims.apnews.com\/dims4\/default\/a955eff\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/3000x2000+0+0\/resize\/599x399!\/quality\/90\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstorage.googleapis.com%2Fafs-prod%2Fmedia%2F25b97b03f0e849e8a29f3af4e88e60d5%2F3000.jpeg\" alt=\"Colorado's Lauren Boebert locked in tough reelection bid | AP News\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The primary flashpoint in this escalating conflict involves a bitter feud between South Carolina Representative Nancy Mace and Florida Representative Corey Mills. On Monday, Mace filed a formal resolution to expel Mills from the House, citing what she described as \u201coverwhelming evidence\u201d of heinous personal conduct. The allegations, which include domestic violence\u2014specifically \u201cbeating women and telling them to lie about it\u201d\u2014as well as cyberstalking and fraud regarding military service, have sent shockwaves through the Capitol . Mace was blunt in her assessment, stating that any member who votes to keep Mills in his seat is essentially \u201cvoting to protect a woman beater and a fraud\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Corey Mills, however, did not take these accusations lying down. Within hours of Mace\u2019s motion, reports surfaced that Mills was preparing a dueling expulsion resolution against her. He dismissed Mace\u2019s actions as \u201cpolitical fundraising theatrics\u201d and accused her of ignoring due process. Mills pivoted the attack back toward Mace, referencing an investigation by the ethics committee and courts in South Carolina regarding an alleged temporary restraining order (TTRO) issued for the harassment of her ex-fianc\u00e9 . This public trading of \u201ccriminal rot\u201d allegations has left Mike Johnson in a \u201cheartbroken\u201d and impossible position, as he attempts to lead a conference that would seemingly rather devour itself than govern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The situation reached a boiling point when Lauren Boebert, a frequent ally of the hard-right faction, broke ranks to support the calls for Mills\u2019 resignation. In a stunning public statement, Boebert sided with the push to remove her colleague, remarking, \u201cI mean you\u2019re beating women, I don\u2019t think there should be a representative in Congress\u201d . When challenged with the fact that Mills has denied all allegations, Boebert retorted with a biting assessment of the political landscape: \u201cI mean who hasn\u2019t denied allegations? Everybody does\u201d . This stance by Boebert is particularly significant because it legitimizes the calls for expulsion from within the GOP\u2019s own ranks, making it harder for leadership to sweep the issue under the rug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.economist.com\/content-assets\/images\/20240622_USP513.jpg\" alt=\"Lauren Boebert's primary is a window into everyday Trumpism\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaker Mike Johnson\u2019s response to the crisis has been widely criticized as weak and non-committal. When questioned directly about whether he supports Mills\u2019 re-election, Johnson retreated into procedural jargon, insisting on \u201cdue process\u201d and refusing to put a \u201cthumb on the scale\u201d of the Ethics Committee investigation . Critics point out that while everyone is entitled to their day in court, the privilege of serving in Congress is not an entitlement, especially when disturbing body cam footage and photos of alleged victims are circulating . Johnson\u2019s inability to distance himself from a member accused of such violent behavior highlights the desperation of a Speaker who cannot afford to lose a single vote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the Mace-Mills-Boebert triangle captures the headlines, a more mysterious and potentially more damaging story is brewing on the periphery. New Jersey Republican Representative Tom Kean has been missing from Capitol Hill for two months, following what has been described as a \u201chealth crisis\u201d . Despite his absence from every vote and public appearance since March 5th, financial records show that Kean has been remarkably active in stock trading, buying and selling shares valued between $50,000 and $190,000 during his disappearance . The \u201cWeekend at Bernie\u2019s\u201d style mystery surrounding Kean has led to speculation that Republican leadership is hiding the severity of his condition to prevent a special election that would almost certainly flip the seat to the Democrats, thereby ending the GOP majority altogether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fallout from this internal carnage is already manifesting in the polls. Recent data shows that independent voters, the crucial demographic needed to win in 2024, are deserting the Republican party in record numbers. Donald Trump\u2019s approval rating among independents has \u201ccratered,\u201d with only 23% approving of his overall performance. Even on core issues like the economy and cost of living, Trump is polling at a dismal 12% to 19% among independents. Commentators like Megyn Kelly have warned that \u201cyou cannot win elections like that,\u201d noting that the party\u2019s obsession with \u201cwars of choice\u201d and internal PR spin is failing to address the actual concerns of the American people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSIJV3YJyBxCWvrQVsJucPi0ov8hwVjBWWqPA&amp;s\" alt=\"Lauren Boebert calls on Tony Gonzales to resign over texts with late staffer\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the \u201cleast productive Congress in history\u201d continues to prioritize petty squabbles and culture wars over healthcare and basic human rights, the moral bankruptcy of the leadership is becoming impossible to ignore. Whether it is the cognitive dissonance of Lauren Boebert calling for Mills\u2019 resignation while supporting an \u201cadjudicated rapist\u201d like Donald Trump, or Mike Johnson\u2019s \u201cfeckless\u201d attempts to protect a dwindling majority at any cost, the message is clear: the GOP is a party at war with itself. The upcoming weeks will determine if the Republican House majority can survive its own internal rot, or if the weight of these \u201cbombshell\u201d allegations will finally bring the whole house down.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lauren Boebert Drops Shocking Resignation Bombshell That Mike Johnson Feared Most GOP Civil War: Boebert Joins Mace in Demanding Resignation of Corey Mills as House Majority Teeters&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":665,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-657","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailynewus.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/657","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailynewus.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailynewus.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailynewus.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailynewus.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=657"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/dailynewus.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/657\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":666,"href":"https:\/\/dailynewus.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/657\/revisions\/666"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailynewus.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/665"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailynewus.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=657"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailynewus.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=657"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailynewus.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=657"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
