Speaker Mike Johnson faces yet another critical test of his speakership

in just about every article about Moses Mikey. Every piece of legislation the man has tried to bring is a critical test of his speakership because he's no leader... period. His conservative party is fracturing thanks to the oversized maga influence, of which he is one. He can't corral his party because the fractures are too stark. The fact the "center right" has started actually using their voice (albeit it ever so softly) is a big problem for him.
