[QUOTE="essentialsaltes, post: 77511001, member: 294566"] A few GOP Congresscritters are back early to get some important work done. That's right! [B][I]Finger-Pointing and Recriminations![/I][/B] [HEADING=2][URL='https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4380823-house-republicans-members-caused-upheaval/?utm_source=fark&utm_medium=website&utm_content=link&ICID=ref_fark']House Republicans stew over members who caused upheaval[/URL][/HEADING] House Republicans are stewing over a lack of consequences for those in their ranks who were at the center of much of the internal upheaval that dominated last year — and bemoaning incentives that some worry reward being loud over being substantive. “For a body that creates laws for the American people to live by, Congress lives in a lawless society to where members can do whatever they would like that goes against conference rules, and still have the ability to maintain the committee assignments — to still get, you know, whether it’s fundraising or extra dollars from leaders wherever it may be,” Rep. [URL='https://thehill.com/people/max-miller/']Max Miller [/URL](R-Ohio) said. And in the weeks that followed [McCarthy's ouster], actions on the House floor showed that some Republicans, having just gone through a historic Speaker fight, still had no fear of upending their party’s schedule or plans. [Hard-line conservatives torpedoed votes on must-pass spending bills if their aggressive amendments were not considered by their colleagues.] [Sentence reordered to better show cause and effect, cause less damage to the English language.] Another one of the eight lawmakers who voted to oust McCarthy, Rep. [URL='https://thehill.com/people/bob-good/']Bob Good [/URL](R-Va.), has been elevated to be the chair of the House Freedom Caucus [Good said] before the holiday break that Republicans have to be “willing to withstand a potential partial government shutdown to try to force the Democrats to negotiate.” [/QUOTE]
