Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has voiced a number of complaints against Speaker Mike Johnson but has particularly focused on his decision to allow a vote on aid for Ukraine.
Any allegations that Greene is transparently working as a Russian agent are entirely unsubstantiated.
I’ll be curious if the democrats step in. Johnson did the right thing getting the bill passed, but he’s still a garbage human being and a terrible leader.
He is terrible, but he’s better than any replacement, he’s shown a willingness to work with Dems, and most importantly, if he ever breaks any promises, the Dems can sick him to the wolves.
It is pragmatic to keep the House from being without a speaker, and he hasn’t broken a deal yet. They are trying to keep the House functioning somewhat by tabling a vote, but if it came to a vote for a new speaker all the Dems will most likely vote Jeffries again.

I thought I saw a headline last night that the democrats in the house said they would vote to table any effort to remove Johnson.
They have already said that they would: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/democrats-house-speaker-mike-johnson-motion-to-vacate-b2537337.html
She’s just spewing shit, as always.

They’d save him. He’s the least awful among a menagerie of traitors.
Article I read a couple of days ago said they will. But who knows? There’s no love lost between the parties.

Who could they possibly replace him with who wouldn’t also be a dumpster fire?
