Greene Faces Uphill Battle to Oust Mike Johnson

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is escalating her threat to remove Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) from power, but she faces a steep climb if she hopes to achieve that goal, The Hill reports.

“Not only has the Speaker recently received a glowing review from former President Trump, the GOP’s presumed presidential nominee, but Democrats remain ready to rescue Johnson from a conservative coup. On top of that, many of the conservatives most frustrated with Johnson’s leadership style are opposing a motion to vacate, leaving Greene with only the barest GOP support for her removal resolution.”
