WASHINGTON — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has filed a motion to oust Speaker Mike Johnson, three sources with knowledge of the move told NBC News, doing so just as the House voted to avoid a government shutdown.
Johnson, R-La., has served as speaker for five months, having taken over for Kevin McCarthy who was ousted from the top job under a similar process.
Dems should make a deal with Johnson. They will throw him a few votes in exchange to allow Jeffries the ability to schedule votes. That way both parties decide what things to hold votes about.
No. Dems just need like 1 Republican to vote for Jeffries. At this point there may be enough Republicans furious with the extreme nut jobs to form a “not batshit crazy” coalition with the Dems.
How democracy should actually work. I don’t understand why they haven’t been doing this to begin with
