The Capitol Hill chroniclers at Punchbowl News made a proclamation Monday morning: “The winner of this Congress? Joe Biden.” It’s a remarkable statement, considering Democrats only hold the majority in the Senate. But the “burn it down caucus” in the House GOP has achieved the impossible. They have torched their own congressional majority, leaving themselves a one-seat governing majority in the House of Representatives. How? Republicans are running for the exits at an alarming clip.

Here is an edited transcript of our discussion.Thomas Massie: Let’s talk about the three big betrayals that we’ve seen in the last few weeks. The first was the omnibus.

As Speaker Mike Johnson attempts to shepherd a package of foreign aid bills, including one with vital aid for Ukraine, through the House of Representatives, all eyes are on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s threat to oust him. So far, only Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., has backed her efforts, but other far-right members surrounded Johnson on the House floor Thursday to express their disagreements.
