During a recent vote series, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene surprised House Speaker Mike Johnson and his office by proceeding with a motion to vacate without any prior notice, according to a GOP source. However, Johnson had been aware of the possibility of this motion arising at some point during the week and had a plan in place to address it.
Johnson's strategy was to swiftly move to table the motion once it was brought up, ensuring that he was prepared for the unexpected development. This proactive approach allowed Johnson to effectively handle the situation and respond promptly to Greene's motion.
