House Democrats Save Uniparty House Speaker Mike Johnson from Being Ousted in Motion to Vacate

Johnson will now remain beholden to the Democrats for the rest of his term to continue enacting the far-left Biden agenda knowing he can only remain Speaker with their continued support

America Last House Speaker Mike Johnson now rules in a governing coalition with the House Democrats doing their bidding on all major domestic and foreign policy issues in opposition to President Trump and America First conservatives in Congress.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor-Greene (R-GA) met with House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) for three hours earlier last week and offered to drop her Motion to Vacate in return for his pledge to abandon his alliance with House Democrats, support conservative principles of fiscal responsibility, stop colluding with House Democrats to pass their bills, defund corrupt Special Counsel Jack Smith’s Stalinesque prosecution of Trump and pledge he would not support any additional massive multi-billion-dollar giveaways to the hopelessly corrupt Zelensky regime in Ukraine. Unfortunately, Johnson reportedly refused every single one of her demands.

Since the 2022 election, Republicans have seen their majority reduced from nine votes to three as they have gone from a 222-213 margin to merely 217-214 over the past several months further weakening their ability to pass conservative legislation but this is no excuse for Johnson’s decision to block conservative legislation and pass liberal legislation instead. Johnson has repeatedly colluded with the Democrats after they promised him they would help him retain power as Speaker if he did their bidding on the Ukraine aid bill and supported other liberal pet projects strongly opposed by the GOP’s conservative base. In response to Johnson’s unprecedented and unholy alliance with Biden, Schumer and far left House Democrat extremists, America First champion Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) courageously brought her Motion to Vacate Biden-backed America Last House Speaker Mike Johnson on Wednesday.

Sadly, 193 America Last Republicans ‘zeroes’ joined with 163 Democrats led by House Minority Leader Jeffries and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to save Johnson from being ousted. Eleven House Republicans voted against the motion to table it, which was three more than voted to oust former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. The bigger news is that less than 89% of House Republicans (along with 76% of Democrats) voted to retain Johnson as Speaker whereas McCarthy had the support of over 96% of Republicans (but no Democrats) to keep his Speakership.  

Sadly, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), who at one point was a reliable America First conservative vote, gave Johnson a pass for betraying his conservative principles by once again siding with the far-left extremist House Democrat Caucus in voting to keep spineless America Last Speaker Mike Johnson in power. If the vote to table had failed, even more Republicans would have voted to oust America Last RINO Speaker Johnson for enacting virtually the entire neo-Marxist Democrat legislative agenda. Johnson caved a couple of weeks ago in passing the Biden-Schumer $95 billion foreign aid monstrosity that included $61 billion to prolong Biden’s manufactured war in Ukraine unnecessarily and get hundreds of thousands more Ukrainians killed in their unwinnable border dispute with Russia. Johnson also caved on reauthorizing warrantless FBI searches of law-abiding Americans in support of Biden’s drive to transform America into an autocratic one-party socialist police state.

After her effort to oust Johnson fell short, Rep. Marjorie Taylor-Greene (R-Ga.) stated, “I think today has proven the uniparty is alive and well, and the Democrats now control Speaker Johnson. That was something that everybody’s suspected all along. They just voted to save him.” Greene is absolutely correct in stating that this vote made it official that Mike Johnson is now in fact a uniparty/Democrat coalition House Speaker. Were it not for the House Democrats voting en masse to save him he would not be Speaker right now.  The good news is that if the GOP keeps the House, when the Speaker vote happens in January, there is little to no chance Johnson will be able to remain Speaker and if they don’t, he could be fired by House Republicans in November!

Here are the names of the eleven America First House Republican heroes who voted to advance the effort to oust the Biden backed House Speaker:

• Andy Biggs of Arizona

• Eric Burlison of Missouri

• Eli Crane of Arizona

• Warren Davidson of Ohio

• Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia

• Paul Gosar of Arizona

• Thomas Massie of Kentucky

• Alex Mooney of West Virginia

• Barry Moore of Alabama

• Chip Roy of Texas

• Victoria Spartz of Indiana

While President Trump posted on Truth Social that now was not yet the time to oust Mike Johnson, seeming to leave open the possibility that time will come in November, following what I am expecting will be a Republican loss of control of the House of Representatives, he praised Rep. Taylor-Greene as a great conservative. Were it not for Trump’s support of Speaker Johnson, it is likely that many more Republicans would have voted to oust him.

De-Facto House Speaker Hakeem Jeffries (R-NY) celebrates the return of control of the House of Representatives to the Democrats

Knowing that he lacks the Republican votes to remain Speaker and could be ousted at any time, Johnson will now remain beholden to the Democrats to continue enacting virtually the entire far-left Biden agenda knowing he can only retain power with their continued support House Minority leader Hakeem Jeffries celebrated this unprecedented achievement for Democrats to retake effective control of the US House of Representatives mid-term by controlling a Republican House Speaker by stating the Democrats though in the minority are effectively the governing majority right now. During a 60 Minutes interview with CBS News, he declared, “Even though we’re in the minority, we effectively have been governing as if we were in the majority because we continue to provide a majority of the votes necessary to get things done…Those are just the facts.”

Conservative Republicans are seething with anger against Johnson for his flagrant betrayals of conservatism and repeated unconditional surrenders to far left House Democrats across the board. As a recent article pointed out,

Since he was elected speaker six months ago, Johnson’s victories are limited to voting to fully fund Joe Biden’s back-breaking agenda, heaping 60 billion more taxpayer dollars into a corrupt slush fund (sometimes called “Ukraine”) and giving up any leverage Republicans had in forcing the administration to address the nation’s most urgent problem — the bleeding Southern border. Oh, plus he re-authorized warrantless spying on Americans.

To be fair, he can’t say he got nothing out of it. For fulfilling their complete wishlist, Democrats and the media did compare Johnson to Churchill. He also declared himself a “wartime speaker.”

Those prizes proved to be short-lived. After Biden announced this week that he would halt additional offensive military equipment if Israel advances ground troops in Rafah, Johnson ran to his other favorite publication, Politico, to say this wasn’t what he had hoped the president would do.

Norwegian leader Vidkun Quisling, who is infamous for collaborating with the Nazis in their occupation of his country

America Last House Republicans and far left House Democrats duped Speaker Mike Johnson into supporting the terrible Biden Ukraine aid package by getting him to fancy himself as a modern-day British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. While leading Britain to victory against Nazi Germany, Churchill also appeased the greatest mass murderer in history up to that time, Josef Stalin by ceding half of Europe to genocidal Soviet control and domination for half a century. But, in fact, history will remember Johson as a modern-day, cowardly, weak-kneed Vidkun Quisling, the Norwegian leader who collaborated with the Nazis occupiers during World War Two, who lacked the courage to take a stand to defend against America’s enemies at home and abroad.

Johnson will now be forced to continue to collaborate with the modern-day National Socialist occupiers of our time-namely the Democrat Party marching lock-step with them to weaken, undermine and perhaps even destroy America. Under President Joe Biden, the national socialist Democrat party has seized control of our God-given constitutional republic by undemocratic means with the aid of their Communist Chinese benefactors and is going all out to overturn it and transform us into a lawless one-party fascist police state.
