Republicans have a razor-thin majority in the House of Representatives. Former President Trump has a message to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA). He wants her to back off. MTG has held a potential ouster over Speaker Mike Johnson’s head for weeks. For the second time in two weeks, Trump voiced his support for Johnson. MTG […]
Efforts by conservative Republicans to prevent a House vote on foreign aid bills to Ukraine, Israel and Pacific allies failed Thursday after Democrats intervened. The four bills include another $60.84 billion in taxpayer money for Ukraine, $26.38 billion for Israel and $8.12 billion for Pacific allies such as Taiwan. A fourth bill would demand TikTok’s […]
Just over six months after former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy was ousted from the speakership by House Democrats and a handful of Republicans, current Speaker Mike Johnson faces a similar threat.

That didn’t take long, now did it?

Marjorie Taylor Greene filed a motion to remove Mike Johnson from the House speakership on Friday, but it doesn’t look like the Louisiana Republican will be going anywhere anytime soon.
