'It's going to be a circus': Inside Mike Johnson's grueling week'

"Johnson is facing a rebellion from his rank-and-file all the way up to some of his senior members over his plan to move ahead with the budget resolution the Senate advanced last week that would only address immigration enforcement funding."

"Hanging over it all are the events of this past weekend's White House Correspondents Dinner, where a gunman fired shots near a ballroom where the president, vice president, the Speaker of the House and Cabinet officials in the line of presidential succession were all dining."

"GOP leaders are already losing precious floor time Tuesday when King Charles III, who is in town for a state visit at the White House, will address a joint session, forcing leaders to cut off House votes by noon."

"This week will also mark 60 days since the start of the conflict with Iran, and some Republicans are growing anxious over the economic uncertainty it has wrought, especially concerning energy prices."

Johnson is encountering dissent from both rank-and-file and senior members regarding his budget resolution plan, which focuses solely on immigration enforcement funding. Hard-liners demand a comprehensive follow-up to last summer's tax and spending bill to mitigate potential losses in the upcoming elections. Recent security incidents, including a shooting near a high-profile event, have heightened urgency for lawmakers to address funding issues. GOP leaders face time constraints due to a royal visit, complicating negotiations on critical items with significant political implications.
