Coming up on Washington Week with The Atlantic:

Speaker Mike Johnson’s challenges ahead:  Anger and frustration is growing from some hard-right members of GOP Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) caucus over government spending. Johnson has a long legislative to-do list when the House returns to Washington after Thanksgiving, and with Republicans holding a razor-thin majority, his moves will be scrutinized by Republicans and Democrats alike.
