WASHINGTON — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has filed a motion to oust Speaker Mike Johnson, three sources with knowledge of the move told NBC News, doing so just as the House voted to avoid a government shutdown.

Johnson, R-La., has served as speaker for five months, having taken over for Kevin McCarthy who was ousted from the top job under a similar process.

    Thank you! I agree, I don’t think Dems would keep that rule. Which kind of makes it only for republicans. But now I understand that they are in fact House rules that would need to be changed. Thanks again bro/sis!
