We were promised promised regular order. That's what our conference had started out as with rules and Promises to the American people that we would bring regular order back to Congress speaker. Johnson has betrayed that bypassing 3C ours and then forcing us to pass to vote on a two-part on the bus the second one being today. This is a betrayal of the American people. This is a betrayal of Republican voters and and the bill that we were forced to vote on Force Republicans to choose between funding to pay our soldiers and in doing so funding late-term abortion. This bill was basically a dream and a and a wish list for Democrats in for the White House was completely led by Chuck Schumer, not our Republican speaker of the house not Our conference and we weren't even allowed to put amendments to the floor to have a chance to make changes to the bill. I filed a motion to vacate today, but it's more of a warning and a pink slip. I respect your conference. I paid all my dues to my conference. I'm a member in good standing and I do not wish to inflict pain on our conference and a throw. Throw the house in chaos, but this is basically a warning and it's time for us to go through through the process take our time and find a new speaker of the house that will stand with Republicans in our Republican majority instead of standing with the difference between the Ford but I'm not saying that it won't happen in 2 weeks or it won't happen in a month or two there. Who knows when but I am saying the clock has started it's time for a conference to choose a new species the American people. Are focused on the issues impacting I'm affordability to the Border crisis created by Joe Biden to the failed disastrous foreign policy of this Administration and this is her on our side, but we have to show that we can govern and that we can work as a used to doing things like this obviously make a awesome and create unnecessary distraction. I think it's not only idiotic but it actually do not do anything to advance the conservative and in fact, it undermines our country and our Magyar and I think everyone should be focused on the task at hand Republican party now thrives on Instagram motion for vacate pics potions division. It's a substitute for a governess. So it doesn't surprise me that they're back it. Doing what they do best wishes cannibalism, but I hoped somehow through this process. We will get Aid to the people of Ukraine our allies in Ukraine who are under the gun with Vladimir Putin's filthy imperialist Invasion. I hope we will get a to the suffering people of Gaza is quickly as possible for republicans in the upcoming election. The American people understand that the Republicans have been a party of chaos Insurrection and betrayal of democracy and freedom and they've done in the fraud and they chanted at home. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Marjorie Taylor Greene Files Surprise Motion to Oust Speaker Mike Johnson","description":"Five months after being elected as House Speaker, Mike Johnson may have to fight to keep his position after Rep.
