For a second time this term, a Republican has filed a motion to remove a GOP Speaker of the House. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene filed a motion to vacate on Friday, but stopped short of calling for an immediate vote, after expressing her frustration with Speaker Mike Johnson for bringing a $1.2 trillion government funding bill to the House floor. "This is not a Republican bill," Greene said before the vote took place on Friday."This is a Chuck Schumer , Democrat-controlled bill.
" The bill, which is over 1,000 pages, funds numerous departments, including Homeland Security, the Department of Defense and Health and Human Services. "This bill will absolutely destroy our majority and will tell every single one of our voters that this majority is a failure," Greene said. The House ended up passing the bill by a vote of 286 to 134. It still needs to pass in the Senate to avoid a partial government shutdown
