Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene files motion to oust Mike Johnson as House speaker
Johnson has served as speaker of the House for five months. Greene stopped short of forcing a vote to remove him, calling her motion a “warning.”

Hey, whatever works
Probably more the swing-district republicans saying, "Government shutdowns always get blamed on the GOP. You gotta take one for the team here. Take it up with Donald later."
God probably came to him and said he did his job
