All hail MARJORIE TAYLOR Greene, of the" PUTIN OR BUST "legion of honor, as she shows her love for the Kremlin agenda. Modern Tokyo Rose, or what?
Oh the agony of POOR PITIFUL MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE, As she grinds her way to INSTANT acceptance of her petition to become one of the borgue of the Russian Federation, let us reflect on what a good JOB she has done. Right ?
A. Senate conservatives, say NYET as to her PUTIN love generated attack on Speaker Johnson
quote
Senate conservatives are urging Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) to back off her attempt to oust Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), saying it’s a waste of time and Congress has higher priorities ahead of the November election.
Greene filed her motion to vacate a month ago to protest the Speaker’s handling of Ukraine aid, government spending and reauthorization of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, and Republicans have been dreading the moment when she forces a vote on the resolution. The Georgia Republican announced Wednesday she would move next week to bring it to the floor.
Only two House Republicans have publicly backed her effort, and she’s not finding any more support among the ranks of Senate conservatives, many of whom believe Johnson is the right person to steer the conference and that a leadership change today would be political malpractice.
“It’s a horrible idea,” Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) told The Hill. “Moses could not do a better job than what Mike Johnson is doing right now.”

BUT BUT BUT you know how Lavrov would respond? If it hurts America, DO IT
Right Marjorie Taylor Greene ? GOTTA keep LAVROV and PUTIN happy. RIGHT ?
B. Lets revisit the greatest hit, that Marjorie Taylor Greene threw out.
" OH VLADIMIR PUTIN will NEVER invade ANOTHER COUNTRY ! " mood music as MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE screeches out how she " HATES YOU ALL " for voting for the purported MUGA agenda by the Uniparty, when Ukraine got 100 House Representative GOP votes in favor of 61 billion USD
C, If Marjorie Taylor Greene, is, ahem overwhelmed by the HONOR OF HER presence next to PUTIN , and LAVROV, may I suggest that she go to Slovakia, and give advice to Fico, you know the KREMLIN guy as a substitute
Fico's party turned Slovakia into the newest puppet state of the KREMLIN empire
Meanwhile, the plea by the Senate conservatives, that impeaching Johnson, is a terrible idea, is just plain MOOD MUSIC for the Kremlin, to get MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE all charged up
To which I say : " NYET MOSCOW MARJORIE "
Tune in tomorrow when we represent the follies of how Moscow Marjorie Taylor Greene struggles with RUSSIAN in the heart of the love object of her desire, the KREMLIN
Hear that synchronous beat, all in favor of KOMRADE Greene, next to KOMRADE PUTIN
ALL HAIL. Just don't get in cat fights with Edward Snowden's girlfriend, MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE . He's TAKEN.

Greene filed her motion to vacate a month ago to protest the Speaker’s handling of Ukraine aid, government spending and reauthorization of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, and Republicans have been dreading the moment when she forces a vote on the resolution. The Georgia Republican announced Wednesday she would move next week to bring it to the floor.
Only two House Republicans have publicly backed her effort, and she’s not finding any more support among the ranks of Senate conservatives, many of whom believe Johnson is the right person to steer the conference and that a leadership change today would be political malpractice.
“It’s a horrible idea,” Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) told The Hill. “Moses could not do a better job than what Mike Johnson is doing right now.”
“I think he’s doing the very best possible [job] in the situation with a slim majority where the Democrats control the Senate and the White House,” he continued. “There’s not a more conservative person over there that can be elected Speaker than Mike Johnson is.”
Johnson has been largely dismissive of Greene’s effort to remove him from the Speakership using the same mechanism a different group of conservatives used to oust former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) in October.
He recently said in an interview that he does not consider Greene a serious lawmaker.
“We do the right thing and we let the chips fall where they may,” Johnson told NewsNation, which is owned by the same parent company as The Hill.
Greene’s push is widely expected to fail. Johnson’s conservative critics in the House have previously indicated they have little appetite for a repeat of the three weeks of chaos that ensued after McCarthy was removed.
And Democratic leadership, along with rank-and-file members of the party, have pledged to help save Johnson’s gavel after he put Ukraine aid on the floor, where it easily passed.
Still, leading conservatives in the Senate wish the effort would go by the wayside.
“I think it is utterly ridiculous and counterproductive,” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said.
Sen. Mike Braun (R-Ind.), who is running for the Indiana governorship this year, noted the effort could harm the Republican agenda for the remainder of the year and said conservatives don’t support it because there is no real fallback option.
It took three weeks and multiple failed candidacies for the House GOP conference to elect Johnson.
“Who’s raised their hand that would want to be [Speaker]?” Braun asked.
Greene’s effort has also been stymied by former President Trump’s support for Johnson in recent weeks.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) also threw his full support behind the embattled Speaker earlier this week.
“I’m relieved as I think all of America is that the chaos in the House will be discontinued,” McConnell told reporters Wednesday. “I think it’s a benefit to our country, a benefit to the House, a benefit to the reputation of Congress.”
While Johnson’s recent series of bipartisan deals to keep the government open and to move on aid for Ukraine have angered a number of conservatives, many of them have been hoping to avoid a motion to vacate vote on the floor despite Greene’s insistence of putting members on the record.
Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas), a leading House Freedom Caucus member, said recently that the ability to oust a Speaker “exist for reasons, but they should be deployed sparingly” — a sentiment shared by some of his Senate colleagues on the right ahead of the November election.
Most members would much prefer to focus on putting Trump back in the White House and winning control of Congress instead of what they see as a one-sided, petty fight.
“I think we’ll be in a better position going into the fall if we stick together as Republicans,” said Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.), a former House Freedom Caucus member herself.
“Don’t do it, don’t do it. That would be my suggestion,” she added.
Even those most dissatisfied with Johnson in the Senate GOP ranks won’t go so far as to throw their lot in with Greene this time around. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said multiple times in a brief interview that Johnson has “done a terrible job” since taking over the gavel, but declined to say whether he is supportive of the Georgia Republican’s actions.
“They have to decide that. That’s not for me to say,” Paul said
