It seems that the speakers are always compromised. Something very wacky going on with Johnson.
I don’t necessarily think Johnson is wacky, it’s typical of someone who before they are in charge boast of all the great things they would do if they became Speaker, now all of a sudden, Johnson is speaker and he realizes that managing the Republicans is like herding cats, it’s impossible, especially with a very small majority where 5-10 people can control the entire house.
Now the Republicans have normalized motions to vacate the chair and remove any Speaker they don’t like, this can all be done by a very small number of people.
