Republican Lawmakers Rally to Oust Speaker Mike Johnson

Rep. Thomas Massie is co-sponsoring a resolution to oust House Speaker Mike Johnson, citing frustration with Johnson's proposed foreign aid package and accusing him of aligning with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. Massie called on Johnson to resign during a closed-door meeting, arguing that his pre-announcement of resignation would allow for a smoother transition to a new speaker. Johnson, facing a razor-thin majority, emphasized the need for steady leadership and criticized the motion-to-vacate threat as detrimental to the GOP conference.
