BREAKING: Republicans descend on MAGA Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene in a rage, ripping into her for her decision to file a motion to oust their Speaker Mike Johnson from power.
This Republican civil war is getting ugly fast...
"Its not only idiotic, but it actually does not do anything to advance the conservative movement. And in fact, it undermines the country, and our majority," said Republican Representative Mike Lawler, a so-called "moderate" who might lose his seat in New York next election.
Far-right Representative Clay Higgins said Greene's push to remove Johnson risked losing the only leader capable of leading them "through these very dark and challenging times.
I consider Marjorie Taylor Greene to be my friend. Shes still my friend. But she just made a big mistake," Higgins wrote on Twitter (X). "To think that one of our Republican colleagues would call for his ouster right now its really, its abhorrent to me and I oppose it."
Green claims that her motion to vacate stems from his anger over the $1.2 trillion spending bill that the Republican-controlled house just passed, but as usually the likeliest explanation is that she wants attention.
