MTG says Johnson needs to "do the right thing" and resign, or be ousted
She's just trying to keep the government dysfunctional. She needs to go live with her employers in Russia.
Believe it or not, this is American politics. Not everything goes back to red scare propaganda about Russia infiltrating the US.
Yeah, I can't believe anyone would dare try to like the Republican party to Russia. Next thing you'll see is people claiming that Republican politicians flew to Moscow on July 4th, but that's just a crazy accusation that is too crazy to be believable.
True, but in this case it certainly does.
You think she understands the ethnic details of people in Ukraine and just happens to have formed an opinion that agrees with Russia?

I don't think she can even pronounce transcarpathia.
Magic The Gathering needs to take her own advice.
Too high upkeep, just discard it
She's caught between a rock and a hard place if the rumors of 2 R's being ready to walk (if Johnson is ousted) are believed on capital hill. Her twitter follows won't be satisfied unless someone motions to vacate but if they cause the majority to change their donor money is going to dry up even more than it already has.
Her real problem is actually a little different. If she introduces a motion to oust, the Democrats will just vote against it this time. They ousted McCarthy because he went and betrayed them plus threw them under the bus, so they had no reason not to hope for a different speaker. Johnson kept his end of the bargain and doesn't go out of his way to fuck them over, so they have no reason not to reward him and keep him in power. Thus, if she introduces a motion to vacate, she and a couple other crazies vote for it and the whole rest of the House votes against it, revealing her to be even more of a joke than she's already become.
so they have no reason not to reward him and keep him in power.
They have dozens of reasons to want him out.
The Dems would be foolish to intervene and prevent the GOP continuing to bludgeon themselves. If the right end to avoid the shit show caused by their own party, they should vote in a Dem speaker, even if a minority party representation.
He should step down, immediately leave Congress and take one other GOP with him.
Uh.. mtg is a woman. Sort of. Nvm.
Funny that Mike Johnson is now a (very relative) good guy in this current atmosphere
Inb4 a bunch of anger
He just did his job as SotH. Don’t read too much into it. He’s chosen the Bible over the life of citizens before, and he’ll happily do it again.
He's a fundy traitor. Just because he finally caved on this issue after ENORMOUS political pressure, doesn't mean he deserves any credit. He should be jailed for all the lives lost in Ukraine while he dicked around and held this up.
Mike Johnson is a weirdo but at least he's willing to let the gears turn with the dems.
He is the first Republican leader since Boehner to have a gonad related name.
Its a calling card of the old money side of the party.
Is she just trying to churn through speakers until she's made the speaker?
Either way, I wish she'd fuck off for good. Her inane, toxic ranting is incredibly annoying.
She's introduced past legislation with basically word-for-word Russian talking points. She's straight up corrupt and wants government dysfunction and inaction.
Stop listening to this idiot. She only exists to be a distraction and/or to promote her own self-interests. She's never saying anything constructive or of any consequence.
She's a Russian mouthpiece
Backseat driver
