Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) questions from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell on March 7 in Washington. (Greg Nash)<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr3_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>The conservatives have met with House GOP leaders in recent days but have yet to ease up on their move to essentially take the House floor hostage. They are furious that the debt ceiling deal McCarthy cut included lower spending cuts and fewer Republican priorities than their debt limit bill. But their demands of the Speaker are unclear five months after they paved the way for him to win the gavel on the 15th vote.<\/p>\n<p>None of the members has threatened to oust McCarthy from his long-coveted post, but the situation represents the biggest threat thus far to his short tenure.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Some Republicans indicated they are alarmed by what\u2019s going on, but said that they are confident McCarthy will be able to quash the situation to allow the House to resume its work.\u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr4_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>\u201cThe House is emotional,\u201d Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) told reporters, that it <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>ly \u201creflects the mood of the country.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is just the way, once in a while, people act out, and that\u2019s just part of the process,\u201d Rounds continued. \u201cThey\u2019ll handle it. It\u2019ll be okay.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.), a former House GOP member who is an ally and friend of the Speaker, told The Hill he was not surprised to see the revolt and argued McCarthy is uniquely qualified to get the House train back on the tracks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr5_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>\u201cNot at all,\u201d Mullin said, echoing Cramer and labeling those involved as \u201cattention seekers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKevin is very good at what he does. He\u2019s got more relationships, he builds better relationships than any Speaker I\u2019ve ever served with,\u201d Mullin explained. \u201cIf anybody can do it, it\u2019s him, and I\u2019m pretty confident he can get it done.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lawmakers have already started staking out positions on the farm bill, which deals primarily with food and agricultural policy, and pressure has already started to mount on the push to move all 12 appropriations bills through Congress. A government shutdown could also be in order if the dozen legislative items are not passed, in addition to an eventual 1 percent cut on defense and nondefense spending if they aren\u2019t passed this and next year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr6_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>Some GOP members are also warning about the party weakening its hand in talks if the continued intransigence by hardline conservatives stretches into the coming weeks as they have\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/maxpcohen\/status\/1666835625037684737\">signaled a willingness<\/a>\u00a0to bog things down further.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just think they ought to take a deep breath, step back and imagine the next day if their position prevailed,\u201d Cramer said. \u201cWhat they will be doing is handing the control of the House of Representatives over to Democrats, and that\u2019s the part that disturbs me as much as anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2018No, because it\u2019s not good enough.\u2019 If that\u2019s going to be the prevailing position all the time, you\u2019re going to just turn over governing to the Democrats.
