Prices at the Pumps - May 8, 2024 #saltwire #pricesatthepumps #gaspricesWASHINGTON - Firebrand Republican U.S. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene called on Wednesday for a vote on her motion to remove fellow Republican House of Representatives Speaker Mike Johnson from his leadership role.
"Excuses like 'this is just how you have to govern in divided government' are pathetic, weak and unacceptable," Greene said of Johnson."Even with our razor-thin Republican majority we could have at least secured the border." The situation has bolstered House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries, who agreed to save Johnson from ouster after freeing Congress from the roadblock of Republican infighting by delivering crucial Democratic support for must-pass bills.
