MTG files ludicrous motion to oust House speaker. Let's Make Stupidity Embarrassing Again.
Moments after lawmakers in the House of Representatives passed a spending bill to avert a government shutdown also known as doing their job Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene embodied the MAGA moment we live in by filing a motion to vacate Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson.
The Georgia congresswoman showed herself again to be all the things the Republican Party of Donald Trump represents; attention-seeking, spiteful, unserious, opposed to governing and proudly ignorant.
The $1.2 trillion spending package passed on a bipartisan vote, is supported by leaders from both parties in Congress and President Joe Biden, and contains a number of measures conservatives wanted, from $62 billion for Homeland Security to a 6% cut to foreign aid programs.

Like so many of her ilk in Congress and among the various slavish minions who swoon at the mere mention of Dear Leader Trump, Greene on the heels of Republicans doing something positive chose chaos. Specifically, the kind of chaos that makes TV cameras turn in her direction so she can pretend shes a serious person and not a box of wine in human form.
