As political bodies go, the current House GOP faces some serious headwinds. With the expulsion of George Santos, who was removed after being indicted, the Republican majority is so slim as to be nearly useless. Meanwhile, also-indicted Sen. Bob Menendez still has a security clearance because Democrats play for keeps.
Nonetheless, it’s understandable that roadblocks exist. When you don’t win elections, you don’t have the power to act. No one should be expecting miracles from Speaker Mike Johnson and the rest of the GOP caucus. With that said, Republicans in the House have a “strongly worded letter” problem.
Take this latest revelation from Rep. Jim Jordan as an example.
