Pelosi couldn't get the votes to do that.

McCarthy just went to Florida to kiss Trump's ring, so he's not going to do anything Trump wouldn't approve of. There can be no doubt that Trump thinks Greene is an ideal House Rep. So I don't think McCarthy is going to remove Greene from her committee assignment, no matter how much pressure he gets to do so.
