Mike Johnson<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A group of Republicans are planning to oust Mike Johnson as Speaker of the House.<\/p>\n

According to Raw Story, a group of Republicans want to replace Mike Johnson as House Speaker after Trump won the presidential election.<\/p>\n

Freedom Caucus members believe Mike Johnson has been an \u201cabysmal failure.\u201d <\/p>\n

Raw Story reported<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

While Johnson won the support of the House Republican Conference behind closed doors earlier this month, he\u2019s still got to secure majority support on the floor of the House of Representatives on Jan. 3.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe speaker\u2019s got work to do. He\u2019s got work to do,\u201d a member of the far-right Freedom Caucus, who asked to remain anonymous so they could speak candidly, told Raw Story. \u201cThere are members who are thinking about whether they want to support him or not. He\u2019s not there yet.\u201d<\/p>\n

With razor-thin margins in the House, a protest from even a handful of Republicans could cause a repeat of the start of the 118th Congress in which it took 15 votes for former Speaker Kevin McCarthy to secure the gavel.<\/p>\n

While Johnson\u2019s been spending more time with President-elect Donald Trump of late \u2014 including trips to Mar-a-Lago and attending a UFC fight with the former president \u2014 conservatives still aren\u2019t convinced he\u2019s the right GOP general to pass the party\u2019s agenda.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wouldn\u2019t honestly put too much into that. I think that\u2019s just, you know, the president coming through on building goodwill with everybody, and I think that\u2019s a smart approach for him,\u201d the Freedom Caucus member continued. \u201cHonestly, I think it\u2019s more that members don\u2019t see somebody who\u2019s going to be strategic, make the right call, make timely calls.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Earlier this year, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA) tried to oust Johnson<\/a> as Speaker.<\/p>\n

As MTG called for the removal of Mike Johnson as House Speaker in May, the Democrats and RINOs booed loudly in unison.<\/p>\n

MTG immediately called them out, \u201cFor Americans watching this is the Uniparty.\u201d<\/p>\n

Marjorie Taylor Greene listed Johnson\u2019s complete failures as Speaker and his absolute abandonment of Republican principles and promises he made to the American people.<\/p>\n

\n

I just called up my Motion to Vacate Nancy Pelosi-endorsed Uniparty Speaker Mike Johnson.<\/p>\n

\u2014 Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (@RepMTG) May 8, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The final vote was 359 to 43 with 7 members abstaining.<\/p>\n

196 Republicans voted to keep Mike Johnson as Speaker. Disgraceful.
\n163 Democrats also supported Mike Johnson including former Speaker Nancy Pelosi and current Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.<\/p>\n
