House Speaker vote puts GOP unity to the test
Briefly

Republicans are taking their first steps toward full GOP control, with potential infighting over Speaker Johnson's re-election threatening their agenda as Congress opens.
House Speaker Mike Johnson needs near unanimity from Republicans for re-election; he can only lose one vote, underscoring the GOP's razor-thin majority.
Former President Trump endorsed Mike Johnson just hours before the vote, emphasizing unity among Republicans to implement Trump's 'America First' agenda swiftly.
The opening day of Congress resembles Kevin McCarthy's challenges two years ago, highlighting the ongoing struggle for leadership stability within the Republican Party.
