Civil war might be too sensational, but it's an interesting split among the most conservative House members.

I honestly don't recall the last time an incumbent's primary opponent was endorsed by another incumbent, but it might have happened on the other side of the aisle with the progressive caucus.

If in fact these are conservatives that are jockeying for position - good. May the best MAGA man win.

For far too long we have had RINO’s outdoing themselves to remove conservatism from the GOP.

Not sure why you find this surprising.

We just had a GOP presidential primary where the incumbent nominee was challenged. In fact in that primary Bob Good supported the challenger to the incumbent nominee.

The Bush-Cheney faction dug their claws deep into the GOP Establishment for years, and this excising always had to happen as they moved left.
