Quick Glance: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Moves to Oust Speaker Mike Johnson

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene filed a motion to oust Speaker Mike Johnson, refraining from forcing an immediate vote on his removal.

The motion was submitted as the House voted to prevent a government shutdown.

The motion requires a simple majority vote to remove the speaker and won't be addressed until after the House returns on April 9.

Some Republican members opposed removing Johnson as speaker due to concerns about potentially ending up with a Democratic speaker.

Quick Glance: McCarthy loses again on the ninth ballot in the United States Congress.

Republican Kevin McCarthy loses his bid for the chairmanship of the United States House of Representatives for the tenth time in a row.

McCarthy has previously been defeated on six ballots.

He was shamed after falling two days short of the requisite majority in the election for Speaker of the House of Representatives.

McCarthy is relying on practically every vote in his party to be elected Speaker, despite Republicans having a small majority in the House.

Quick Glance: McCarthy Makes New Compromises in Attempt to Win Over GOP Holdouts in Speaker Race

Kevin McCarthy has made new concessions in an attempt to win over detractors in the hotly contested election for House Speaker.

According to two people familiar with the situation, Mr. McCarthy's new offer included modifying the rules to allow for one member to convene a vote to expel the speaker, rather than the five that Mr. McCarthy had previously agreed to.

According to the two persons, there was also an agreement to put more members of the House Freedom Caucus, which includes many McCarthy opponents, on powerful committees.
