Representative Kevin McCarthy, a Republican from California, was ousted from his role as speaker of the House this week, and the race for someone to replace him is under way. The anarchic spirit that is alive and well among House Republicans threatens to exacerbate the federal government’s dysfunction and places support for Ukraine in peril as another potential shutdown looms. What does the GOP’s infighting mean for the health of the party and the country, and for the 2024 presidential campaign? Joining the editor in chief of The Atlantic and moderator, Jeffrey Goldberg, this week to discuss these issues and more: Nancy Cordes, the chief White House correspondent at CBS News; Eugene Daniels, a White House correspondent at Politico and a co-author of “Playbook”; and Chuck Todd, the chief political analyst at NBC News.
