So she finally has something in common with turnip? LOSER!
Now do her.
Ring condemns if … oh not what you meant… carryon.
Dem Neanderthal hips tho LMAO
Who the hell do you support in this case? The right-wing religious nutter or the Russian FSB agent?
You don’t support any of that trash, you take the trash out.
The right-wing religious nutter or the Russian FSB agent?
The right wing nutter. He did the bare minimum to enable support to Ukraine. That’s more than the Russian FSB agent ever did.
Can they also just reject her?
No sooner than Greene triggered the vote on her motion to vacate the speaker from his office, the Republican Majority Leader Steve Scalise countered by calling first for a vote to table it.
An overwhelming majority, 359-43, kept Johnson in his job, for now.
The House voted nearly immediately to resolve something. How often does that happen? That is a resounding rejection.
There are mechanisms for Congress to expell members, but that’s unlikely to come up Santos for her.

Everyone is just sick if her bullshit it seems. Except her constituents, they love that shit.
Cuntery Taitor Bullshit’s game is played out, and nobody will put up with her shit anymore.
Oh how I wish that were true.
Explain
Well, she’ll likely be re-elected by the right-wing troglodytes that make up that swath of her toasty red state. They’re probably super excited to do it. She’s on the tv box! Etc.
Is that gif supposed to be going mach 10, or is my client just freaking out?
This is great news since it officially establishes that Johnson has a dependency on Democrats now. Which gives Dems more leverage because if Johnson refuses to cooperate on something in the future than Dems could bring a motion to vacate the chair.
It also shows how toothless the extreme MAGA side is. Democrats and moderate Republicans made bipartisan deals to get aid passed and this troglodyte can’t abide compromise. She genuinely thinks compromise is evil.
I think you’re giving her too much credit. She just wants chaos and attention.
Correct. She must be fuming because she thought she had that kind of power - and she doesn’t.
I have a small sliver of suspicion that many Democrats voted to help Johnson in order to put her in her place.
I know as a rule of thumb anything Marjorie is for I am most likely against.
Broken clocks, aside.
Yeah, I was frustrated with Greene saying “Democrats saved him,” because with the infinitesimal majority they have, it would be the Democrats who ousted him if they voted the other way. Republicans basically have no agency in their choice of Speaker anymore, thanks largely to the chaos and dysfunction caused by her faction.
Wake up, babe. New voting coalition just dropped.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
WASHINGTON (AP) — Hardline Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene stunned colleagues Wednesday calling for a vote to oust Speaker Mike Johnson, but lawmakers quickly rejected it.
One of Donald Trump’s biggest supporters in Congress, Greene stood on the House floor and read a long list of “transgressions” she said Johnson had committed as speaker.
It was the second time in a matter of months that Republicans have tried to oust their own speaker, an unheard-of level of party turmoil with a move rarely seen in U.S. history.
Johnson of Louisiana marched on, saying he had been willing to take the risk, believing it was important for the U.S. to back Ukraine against Russia’s invasion and explaining he wanted to be on the “right side of history.”
In a highly unusual move, the speaker received a boost from Democrats led by Rep. Hakeem Jeffries of New York, whose leadership team had said it was time to “turn the page” on the GOP turmoil and vote to table Greene’s resolution — almost ensuring Johnson’s job is saved, for now.
Trump also weighed in after Johnson trekked to Mar-a-Lago for a visit, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee giving the speaker his nod of approval.
The original article contains 441 words, the summary contains 200 words. Saved 55%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Just a reminder to Mikey that his fate is controlled by Democrats
I intentionally take in news from different political views and the only people talking about MTG are generally Democrats. She’s an annoying nobody to the right. I’m not at all surprised her power play fizzled.
Blyat!
Haha, what a fucking loser.
Has anyone ever noticed that mtg looks like a wax life sized figure of a cave woman in the natural history display at the local museum?
Someone needs to give her a basket so she can gather some berries!
I’ve heard that she is actually Dog the Bounty Hunter in drag. I mean, it is possible… has anyone seen the two of them in the same place at the same time. And the resemblance is uncanny!
Yes
I feel like these ad homien attacks are what allow people like Marjorie to thrive. If all you can do is put someone down for how they look then I really don’t need to listen to what you have to say.
It’s unfortunate because there are way worse things about Marjorie than her looks.
I’m not saying ad hom is good, I’m saying she factually looks like a Neanderthal. If it’s insulting to anyone, it’s Neanderthals.
On the other hand, ridicule is the only way you can actually engage with someone like marge because you can’t actually engage in good faith.
Just watched the new docu on Netflix about Neanderthals. Wow, you nailed it. She must have been frozen in a sheet of ice for a long time like Encino Man. Oh hell, now I’ve dated myself. For the young, it’s a stupid movie from a long time ago. I think Sam (of Frodo fame) was in it. And another dude who you’d recognize. And a third dude who was popular for about ten seconds.
Stop weezin’ the ju-uice, bu-uddy.
Hey, don’t be rude. Cave women were far more civilized and intelligent. They don’t deserve being compared to MTG!
In another thread, someone referred to her as Perjury Traitor Greed, and I’m just here to make that more popular.
My favorite is Marjorie Trailer Queen
Mine was Margerine Trailer Grease.
She’s no queen. Jester maybe. Clown for sure.
Weren’t court jesters known for their wit? She’d definitely overstep and end in the dungeons, in that scenario.
She looks like that troglodyte they just recreated from that skull more and more every day…
Her cranial lobe is noticeably smaller, her eyes are closer together and her skin is more leathery. She should just focus on being less nasty.
She is so disgusting to look at.
