History

Historical Context

After the 1994 Republican Revolution—when Newt Gingrich’s Contract with America helped the GOP win a 54-seat swing and seize the House for the first time since 1952—internal battles reshaped party loyalty, culminating in the 1995 shutdown under President Bill Clinton. Today Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s claim that MAGA is dead and her planned 2025 resignation echo those same intra-party realignments.
