House Republicans are split on whether to appreciate Speaker Mike Johnson‘s (R-LA) tenaciousness in crafting a foreign aid package or criticize him for betraying the conference, as recent GOP-led bills have passed with a majority of Democratic votes. 

Those sentiments were on full display on Friday following the procedural rule vote to bring the four-pronged foreign aid proposal to the floor for a vote Saturday. It passed, 316 to 94, but over 50 House Republicans voted against the rule — a procedure that historically passes along party lines but has recently been weaponized by some GOP members to stall any legislation with which they do not agree.
