Published: 22 March 2024 at 21:15

Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia filed a motion to remove Mike Johnson from the speakership due to anger toward the government funding bill. The House must consider Greene\'s motion within two legislative days. This challenge signifies growing division within the party since Kevin McCarthy\'s removal. Johnson, who relies on Democratic votes for key legislation, faces opposition from conservative hardliners. Greene\'s motion aims to warn and initiate a leadership change, causing tensions within the GOP.
