Briefly

Mike Johnson's new set of promises to squash a House GOP revolt
"So we made a deal - and actually we talked to the secretary of state directly,"
"It either happens, or a CR goes down,"
"He's promised to be with us on that."
"I made a deal and changed my NO vote on the rule to a Yes in exchange for a floor vote next week on my bill that is one of President Trump's key campaign promises and executive orders,"
House Republican leaders negotiated concessions with several members to reverse no votes and salvage the procedural motion to bring the National Defense Authorization Act to the floor. Concessions included promises to pursue votes on banning congressional individual stock trading, attaching a ban on a central bank digital currency to upcoming appropriations, and scheduling a floor vote on the Protect Children's Innocence Act. Leadership spent more than an hour working the floor; a handful of defectors switched to yes while Thomas Massie remained the lone GOP no.
