    If that is the most serious charge someone can come up with...
    are you serious? I can come up with plenty

    - billions for foreign wars and none for us, U.S. security
    - warrantless spying on U.S. citizens
    - the largest overspending omnibus bill ever… larger than even a$hole Pelosi‘s
    - continuing resolution after continuing resolution… (spending) when he said no more without debate and a budget…

    liar, liar pants on fire Johnson… you should resign in shame

    Except it's not really about the seriousness of "the charge". It's about the hypocrisy that allows Nancy to be a hero, while the milk-toast Reps fall over themselves apologizing for a slight.
    Who was it that recently said "Republicans need to buy a spine on eBay"?
    Yep.

    The media made Pelosi a hero.

    They would never do that with a Republican regardless.

    I have far bigger concerns than this specific item.

    She's got it right

    Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) fashioned a “MUGA” logo hat and displayed it on a cardboard cutout of House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) that stood outside the Capitol Building.

    While speaking with reporters Wednesday morning, Greene announced she would move forward on a motion to vacate Speaker Johnson and mocked him for allowing Democrats to seize control of the House by allowing President Joe Biden’s Ukraine legislative agenda to pass.

    “The uniparty is ‘Make Ukraine Great Again.’ The uniparty is all about funding every single foreign war. They think this is the business model that needs to be done,” she said, holding up the hat with the initials of “Make Ukraine Great Again.”

    “Americans do not want to spend their hard-earned tax dollars to fund the murder and killing in foreign countries. They’re fed up with it. And they’re screaming it as loud as they possibly can,” she added.

    Johnson’s inexplicable decisions to work with Democrats on passing Biden’s Ukraine agenda occurred twice over the course of two days:

    • April 19: Johnson made history by relying on Democrats on the House Rules Committee to overcome objections from the majority and advance a rule bill to the House floor.
    • April 20: Democrats seized the House and helped Johnson clear a key procedural hurdle on the rule bill to set up a later floor vote. Voting “yes” were 165 Democrats and only 151 Republicans.
    In response to Greene’s announcement, Johnson condemned the motion to vacate. Democrats will likely save Johnson’s position by voting with establishment Republicans to keep Johnson.

    “This motion is wrong for the Republican conference, wrong for the institution, and wrong for the country,” he claimed in a statement.

    At a Tuesday press conference, Johnson tried to use the November election as a reason for Democrats and establishment Republicans to keep him in charge.

    “I have to do my job. We have to do what we believe to be the right thing,” Johnson claimed. “We need people who are serious about the job here to continue to do that job and get it done. So I have to do what I believe is right every day and let the chips fall where they may.”

    Why not let every rep be Speaker for a day? One day with the gavel, then vote to remove 'em and on to the next. At least that would be orderly.

    We don’t need orderly (that ‘must be nice and orderly’ is what got us to this point in this country… the RINOs perfected it)

    we need backbone

    we need integrity

    we need a high say/do ratio… not Johnson’s lies
