The stopgap funding bill Kevin McCarthy succeeded in passing did not include additional funding for Ukraine, an issue that has divided Republicans.
Top Republican Kevin McCarthy will face a far-right mutiny to remove him as Speaker of the House of Representatives after he worked with Democrats to avoid a government shutdown that would have left millions of Americans without pay and key services.
The escalation of tensions within the Republican Party comes after Congress on Saturday was able to pass a stopgap bill to avoid what would have been the federal government’s fourth partial shutdown in a decade and allow money to continue flowing - at least for now. “The only way Kevin McCarthy is speaker of the House at the end of this coming week is if Democrats bail him out.”
