Speaker Kevin McCarthy's strategic victory: A behind-the-scenes look at debt ceiling deal WashTimesOpEd

We had created a Republican tsunami that gained 54 seats in the House, led to Republican control of the Senate, and picked up Republican governorships and state legislatures across the country. Our 230-seat majority — and the emotional and psychological momentum of the first House GOP majority in 40 years — gave us legitimacy to force reforms.
