House Republicans should be cooking with gas right now.<\/p>\n

A debt ceiling crisis behind them, Republicans turned their attention to shielding the public from a federal intrusion into the kitchen. GOPers howled for months about potential regulation, if not prohibition, of gas stoves due to environmental concerns from the left. So Republicans drafted two bills to protect gas stoves<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If only some Republicans would let House Republicans even debate Republican bills about gas stoves.<\/i><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what happened:<\/p>\n

A conservative faction of House GOPers feel betrayed by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif. They don\u2019t like the debt ceiling pact McCarthy forged with President Biden to avoid a federal default. They abhor the fact that more Democrats than Republicans – way more – voted for the debt ceiling measure. That\u2019s even though McCarthy managed to convince about two-thirds of all House Republicans<\/a> to vote in favor of a plan to suspend the debt limit.<\/p>\n

GAS STOVE PROTECTION BILLS SUFFER MAJOR SETBACK AS HOUSE REPUBLICANS EXPRESS FRUSTRATION WITH MCCARTHY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Political observers were skeptical McCarthy could thread such a needle: carve a deal with the President yet maintain credibility with a wide swath of House GOPers. It was quite an achievement by McCarthy.<\/p>\n

But, in the eyes of some conservatives, McCarthy\u2019s success barely flickers like a pilot light.<\/p>\n

A revolt among right-wing Republicans<\/a> blocked the House from even considering the dual gas stove bills on Tuesday. After two days of unsuccessful negotiations with the rebel Republicans, McCarthy and the GOP brass canceled votes in the House until next Monday.<\/p>\n

House Republicans prepped the gas stove bills for debate early this week. Most bills headed to the House floor require what\u2019s called a “rule” before debate commences. The “rule” sets the guidelines for how the House debates the legislation. That includes time restrictions and if any amendments are in order. The House must first adopt the rule before starting debate on the underlying legislation. No rule, no debate.<\/p>\n

What is past is prologue.<\/p>\n

CONSERVATIVES BLOCKADE HOUSE FLOOR IN LATEST MUTINY AGAINST GOP LEADERSHIP<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

There were a few tense moments on the House floor last week when the House prepared to bring the debt ceiling package to the floor for debate. Remember that House GOPers can only lose four of their own and still pass a measure without help from the Democrats<\/a>. More than two dozen Republicans voted nay on the the “rule” for the debt ceiling package. Defeating the rule would have stymied the House and prevented the underlying legislation from ever hitting the floor. But after the vote wore on, a trove of Democrats sat on the sidelines, not casting their ballots. With the vote on the rule failing, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., then held up a green voting card in the chamber. That was the signal to “release” Democrats to vote in favor of the debt ceiling rule and make up the GOP deficit.<\/p>\n

The rule passed, depositing the debt ceiling bill on the floor for debate.<\/p>\n

However, the Republican majority would earn no such bailout from Jeffries and Democrats on the gas stove bills. A band of arch-conservatives didn\u2019t inform the GOP brass of their plans to vote no on the rule for the gas stove measures. They ultimately tanked the rule \u2013 blocking the House from even initiating debate on legislation which the party designed to show up the Biden Administration.<\/p>\n

And so commenced two days of backdoor meetings between various Republicans, McCarthy and other top GOP leaders about how to quell the uprising.<\/p>\n

There were even suggestions of sniping between McCarthy and House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La. It\u2019s not absolutely clear that the duo is on the same page. Fox has been told for months to watch Scalise should McCarthy stumble in the Speakership.<\/p>\n

DEMOCRATS HELP MCCARTHY ADVANCE DEBT CEILING DEAL IN NAILBITER HOUSE VOTE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s notable that Scalise was not part of the debt ceiling negotiations. McCarthy conscripted two lieutenants for the job: House Financial Services Committee Chairman Patrick McHenry, R-N.C. and Rep. Garret Graves, R-La., for the job. When asked about scheduling questions, McCarthy often replies “that\u2019s a question for the Majority Leader.” That\u2019s absolutely true. The floor schedule is Scalise\u2019s purview. But it\u2019s unclear if McCarthy\u2019s response is an attempt to stay in his lane or pawn off potential problems to Scalise.<\/p>\n

After the sessions with recalcitrant GOPers, McCarthy finally declared a timeout on Wednesday. He dismissed the House with hopes of having things back to normal on Monday.<\/p>\n

The House Rules Committee has teed up a meeting for Monday afternoon on a measure backed by Rep. Andrew Clyde, R-Ga., to block a rule by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) on pistol braces. Gun rights advocates note that disabled persons use pistol braces. They argue the government is infringing on Second Amendment rights by enforcing the ATF rule.<\/p>\n

The Clyde bill is tied to the center of the controversy among some conservatives. Fox was told there was a problem gaining support for his legislation. Thus, it wasn\u2019t ready for the floor. But conservatives claim there was retaliation by the leadership against Clyde. They contend the GOP leadership refused to bring the pistol brace legislation to the floor because Clyde voted against the rule on the gas stove bill this week.<\/p>\n

McCarthy has tried to remain outwardly positive in his conversations with the press corps after the lengthy meetings with fellow Republicans. He trotted out a familiar line \u2013 used by both Democrats and Republicans \u2013 when their respective parties suffered internal strife. The Speaker said the GOP would have a “family discussion.”<\/p>\n

MCCARTHY BLAMES CONSERVATIVES’ HOUSE FLOOR REVOLT ON POSSIBLE SCALISE ‘MISCALCULATION’<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“I\u2019m not going to get upset. I\u2019m not going to get frustrated in this process. I know this job is not an easy job. I didn\u2019t seek it because it\u2019s easy. I like the challenge,” said McCarthy.<\/p>\n

However, the Speaker conceded he was baffled by the dissent.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m not quite sure what they\u2019re concerned about,” said McCarthy.<\/p>\n

Fox is told there is anger at both McCarthy and Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky.. Massie is a member of the Rules Committee. Massie voted for the “rule” to allow the debt ceiling bill to come to the floor. Had Massie not greenlighted the debt ceiling<\/a> bill in the Rules Committee, the GOP would have lacked the votes to jettison the measure to the floor. That enrages members of the Freedom Caucus.<\/p>\n

“Massie\u2019s been co-opted by the leadership,” said one House conservative source.<\/p>\n

Fox is told that some GOP members told Massie it\u2019s time that he remove the debt clock pin he wears from his lapel after supporting the debt ceiling package.<\/p>\n

“The Rules Committee is not working the way it should,” griped one Freedom Caucus member.<\/p>\n

So the House is back at it on Monday. Scalise has tentatively returned the gas stove measures to the House\u2019s docket for Tuesday. We\u2019ll see if Republicans are indeed cooking with gas by then.<\/p>\n

Or, the whole thing could explode.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
