Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene announced her intention to call a vote next week on ousting House Speaker Mike Johnson, setting the stage for a contentious showdown within the Republican Party. Greene, a vocal supporter of former President Donald Trump, criticized Johnson's leadership abilities and called for a change at the highest levels of the House of Representatives.
Greene's move has divided Republican lawmakers, with some siding with her and others expressing support for Johnson. The Democratic leadership has pledged to provide the votes needed to save Johnson's position as speaker, further complicating the situation.
