With less than twelve hours to go until a lapse in federal funding will force a government shutdown, House Republicans aren’t sure who to listen to.
House Speaker Mike Johnson failed to whip votes for a Thursday evening bid to fund the government.

The second attempt, spearheaded by Johnson, lost by a vote of 174-235, with nearly 40 Republicans jumping ship.
