“Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) has been the most avid ally of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s quest to overthrow Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA). He voted with her to force Johnson’s ouster and predicted that the Louisianan’s gavel was about to be stripped,” NBC News reports.
“But now, things have changed. Massie believes that after Democrats teamed up with most Republicans to protect Johnson, the speaker is safe in his job, at least through the Nov. 5 election.”
Said Massie: “I don’t see it coming back. I think it’s done.”
