Fox News is getting fed up with House Republicans

Fox & Friends hosts are openly frustrated with the renewed dysfunction of the House Republican conference. 

In Thursday’s morning episode of the Fox News program, hosts Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt, Brian Kilmeade, and Lawrence Jones lamented the GOP’s dysfunction the day after multiple Republicans torpedoed a boilerplate House Rules resolution for three bills to protest a budget deal made between their Speaker, Mike Johnson, and Senate Democrats.

“The Speaker of the House is hanging onto his job by a thread,” Doocy insisted forcefully. 

“Two votes, right?” asked Earhardt, referring to the current margin of the Republican’s House majority.

“Well, here’s the thing: it just takes one for a motion to vacate,” Doocy answered, referring to the procedure to begin the removal of a Speaker. “That’s what happened to Kevin McCarthy.”

“Please say they’re not going down that route again,” Earhardt sighed.

“They might,” said a dejected Kilmeade, “Chip Roy says they might.”

A number of Republican Congresspeople, including Chip Roy of Texas and Marjorie Taylor Greene, expressed displeasure with Johnson’s leadership in the aftermath of the purported budget deal. 

Roy, in particular, would not rule out potentially acting to remove Johnson unless he satisfied the demands of the Republican conference’s more conservative elements.

Doocy further complained that the GOP had “a big, chaotic circus” and Kilmeade concluded sarcastically that Republicans “just wanna make sure they’re not in the majority next election.”
