Johnson has served as speaker of the House for five months. It wasn't immediately clear how the House would respond to the motion.

WASHINGTON — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has filed a motion to oust Speaker Mike Johnson, three sources with knowledge of the move told NBC News, doing so just as the House voted to avoid a government shutdown.

Johnson, R-La., has served as speaker for five months, having taken over for Kevin McCarthy who was ousted from the top job under a similar process.

    Poor guy. He appeared to be completely unfit for the job, had to walk a super tightrope about not pissing off his own crazy party, and still got nuked by one of the craziest / stupidest members of his team. Can you imagine the stress? Fuck him. Let him stress. Wretched piece of shit.
