As Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene initiated her motion to vacate against Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), she was loudly booed in the House.

Video of Greene being booed:
Greene announced that she was initiating her motion to declare the speaker chair vacant and the boos grew in the House chamber.
Rep. Greene seriously listed one of the reasons for Johnson to be removed as that he allowed a vote on expelling George Santos:
Republicans like Rep. Darin LaHood (R-IL) are already speaking out against this motion to vacate, “he Motion to Vacate was a bad idea in the fall, and it’s an even worse idea now when we should be putting up conservative wins. Wasting our time with this distraction does a disservice to our country and the institution. I’ll continue to support @SpeakerJohnson”
Greene’s motion to vacate is already an embarrassment that is going nowhere fast. Democrats aren’t going to support it. Republicans aren’t going to support it. Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries has already stated that there are enough Democratic votes to table the motion to vacate.
Democrats will not allow Greene to plunge the House into chaos.
The reign of the empowered Marjorie Taylor Greene is over, and if the boos are any indication, the motion to vacate will defeated very quickly, the chaos will ended, and Democrats can turn the House back into a functional legislative body if the win the majority in November.
