Because of GOP dysfunction, the House Republican leadership is now proposing a continuing resolution to fund the federal government through Preacher of the House Mike Johnson’s preferred “ladder” approach, meaning some will get funded through March 1st while others will go through March 8th. The need for the CR is simple: Republicans cannot govern, and must find a way to pass a bipartisan negotiated funding deal, but they won’t be able to do it in a timely manner because the far right-wing wants to fuck everything up, including again threatening the Speakership.
