House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., hopes to avoid a government shutdown by convincing MAGA-minded members to agree to pass a conservative-leaning continuing resolution, Politico reported.However, that plan would need hardline conservatives such as Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., to suddenly embrace a stopgap measure to avoid a shutdown by Saturday.
"Our Country is being systematically destroyed by the Radical Left Marxists, Fascists and Thugs — The Democrats. Unless you get everything, shut it down!" he ended the post, with the final part in all caps.McCarthy's in a delicate spot. If he pursues the hard-right approach favored by Gaetz and other members of the House Freedom Caucus, the legislation will be dead on arrival in the Democrat-controlled Senate.
However, conservative Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., said Sunday that she remains a "hard no." So it appears unlikely that McCarthy will be able to muster the votes to move forward.If the speaker instead passes a bipartisan resolution to keep the government open, his speakership likely will be brought into question. A motion to vacate seems inevitable.
