Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) began the process of calling for House Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) removal on Friday; no other Republicans joined her on Friday afternoon, per Politico (Lean Left bias).

Key Quotes: While the often-controversial congresswoman said she did not “wish to inflict pain on our conference and to throw the House in chaos,” adding that “this is basically a warning,” Greene also said, “It’s time for us to go through the process, take our time, and find a new Speaker of the House that will stand with Republicans in our Republican majority instead of standing with the Democrats.” A spokesman for Johnson brushed off Greene’s move, saying the GOP leader “always listens to the concerns of members, but is focused on governing.”

For Context: Greene and other hardline conservative House Republicans opposed Johnson’s support of a bipartisan compromise $1.2 trillion funding bill, which House lawmakers passed less than a day before Friday’s government shutdown deadline. Because this purportedly gave up Republicans’ “leverage,” Greene said Johnson had “betrayed our conference and broken our rules.” 

How the Media Covered It: While some coverage focused on the budget compromise’s passage, most major headlines highlighted Greene’s move. Some coverage noted echoes of the push to oust then-Speaker Kevin McCarthy, but some notably omitted McCarthy. Coverage in major left-rated outlets like CNN (Lean Left bias) used words like “revolt” and “mutiny” to describe Republican opposition to Johnson.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., told reporters on Friday that she filed a motion to vacate House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., accusing him of having "betrayed" the "confidence" of the House GOP Conference by ushering through a bipartisan $1.2 trillion federal funding bill to avoid a partial government shutdown.

Johnson won the gavel in late October after his predecessor was ousted by a motion to vacate resolution earlier that month.

Another spending bill, another effort to knock off a Republican speaker.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) has filed a motion to oust Speaker Mike Johnson, setting up a high-stakes vote of confidence in his leadership as conservatives lament the Louisiana Republican's passage of a $1.2 trillion government funding deal with mostly Democratic votes. Greene might not ultimately succeed in terminating Johnson's speakership, but she was adamant about punishing him for the spending deal he struck with Democrats.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) filed a motion Friday to remove Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) from power, a rebuke of his endorsement of a bipartisan spending deal moving through Congress.

Greene filed the motion to vacate — the same procedural move that led to the ousting of former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) — as the House voted to pass a sprawling spending package to stave off a partial government shutdown by Friday’s midnight deadline.
