Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is vowing to move ahead with a vote to oust Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), even after Democratic leaders said they would shield the Louisiana Republican from a conservative coup.

In a post on X shortly after the top three Democrats announced that they would vote to table a motion to vacate if Greene brought it to the floor — effectively saving Johnson’s job — Greene said she would bring it to the floor regardless.

The Georgia Republican filed her motion to vacate last month, but has not yet said when she plans to trigger a vote on it.

“If the Democrats want to elect him Speaker (and some Republicans want to support the Democrats’ chosen Speaker), I’ll give them the chance to do it,” Greene said. “I’m a big believer in recorded votes because putting Congress on record allows every American to see the truth and provides transparency to our votes.”

“Americans deserve to see the Uniparty on full display. I’m about to give them their coming out party!” she added.

DEVELOPING.
