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.

      Apparently Johnson has not yet broken a deal with the Dems like past speakers, so he is about a trustworthy as a GOP member can be.

      Tabling a motion is keeping the status quo. If that somehow fails then there is zero chance the Dems will vote for Johnson to keep his spot as he can’t keep a deal if he can’t keep his position as speaker.

      Strictly because he’s more honorable than Kevin McCarthy & hasn’t lied to the Democrats yet.

        McCarthy was even told that Dems would help him keep the Speaker role if he just asked for their help. He didn’t want to, and didn’t, and he got voted out. Pride comes before a fall.

      Or they could be propping him up to pass stuff and then dropping support just before the election.
