Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and Mike Johnson just got
0:05
devastating career news as Speaker of the House and this is going to sting. Before we get started
0:11
please make sure you like, comment, share and subscribe. Those little things really help us
0:16
out and they help our channel continue to grow. Speaker Mike Johnson helped pass a more than
0:21
one trillion dollar omnibus in the House because, well, his hands were kind of tied. He's down to
0:29
now two votes and it'll be one vote in a couple of weeks when Gallagher retires. He doesn't have
0:35
a lot of wiggle room here for what he can do. However, when you think about the things Nancy
0:39
Pelosi did with a two vote majority, you wonder why Republican speakers can't do the same
0:46
Now Marjorie Taylor Greene is saying this is pink slip worthy. The fact that he did this
0:52
passed this omnibus, is good enough to get him fired as Speaker and she's presented a resolution
0:58
to do exactly that. I fear, if successful, we could have Speaker Hakeem Jeffries rise from the ashes of
1:06
this and not a Republican speaker. I think we got to stick with Johnson until after the election
1:11
That's my opinion. I want to know yours and I want you to listen to what Marjorie Taylor Greene says
1:16
to that exact question here. Again, please remember to like, comment, share and subscribe

I'm Carmine Sabia for Explain America. We love you guys. God bless you. Take care, everybody
1:29
Congresswoman, you are making a strong principled argument and so I hear you on that. Let me ask you
1:35
about the politics of this because the criticism here is that if a motion of vacate ever came
1:42
that you could have Democrats all voting for Hakeem Jeffries and you've got some rhinos
1:46
lots of them, maybe at least a handful. If they side with Democrats, you have Hakeem Jeffries
1:51
as Speaker of the House. That's the danger. You know, I want to know something. That is the
1:57
twist and the spin that everyone is trying to throw out at me on this. But let me tell you
2:03
it's a math. This is simple math. The more Republicans like Mike Gallagher that resign
2:08
and leave early, guess what? That means we have less Republicans in the House
2:13
So every time a Mike Gallagher or a Ken Buck leaves early, that brings our numbers down and
2:19
brings us dangerously closer to being in the minority. It's not Marjorie Taylor Greene that
2:24
is saying the inconvenient truth and forcing everyone to wake up and realize Republican voters
2:30
are done with us doing this kind of crap that we did last week. And they are fed up with Speakers
2:36
of the House and Republicans and go out and campaign and make all these promises and then
2:40
turn around and stab their voters in the back because that's what Mike Johnson did on Friday
2:46
And that's what he led our conference to do on Friday. I am not going to be responsible for
2:51
Hakeem Jeffries being Speaker of the House. I am not going to be responsible for a Democrat
2:56
majority taking over our Republican majority. That lies squarely, squarely on the shoulders
3:03
of these Republicans that are leaving early because they don't have the intestinal fortitude
3:08
to handle the real fight and the responsibility that comes with leadership at the end of our
3:13
Republic, when our country is nearly destroyed and when our Constitution is being rammed through
3:19
a paper shredder. So no one is going to blame that on me. David, I'm going to tell you exactly
3:24
what I'm going to do. I will be so careful and responsible with this. You want to know why
3:28
I care about our majority. I am one of the few Republican members in the House that has actually
3:34
paid all of my dues to the NRCC. And I did that because I want the majority and I want the
3:40
majority next Congress. And I will fight for it. But I am not going to be silly, you know
3:45
nilly willy or be irresponsible with this motion to vacate. I will bring it to a floor at a time
3:51
that I think is needed or responsible or a good time to do it. But this is a pink slip
3:56
Johnson is on notice and our conference needs a new Speaker of the House
