So, allowing the democratic process to move forward, our process that we have in our Constitution to move forward, is apparently the crime of the century, according to these people, which warrants a motion to vacate?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Crenshaw\u2019s comments come as Greene plans to move forward with a motion to vacate Johnson from the speakership next week. Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Paul Gosar (R-AZ) have signaled they will <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/house\/2972147\/gosar-joins-mtg-massie-motion-vacate-johnson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>support<\/a> the motion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey make it impossible for the speaker to actually have leverage over Democrats and get things that we want, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-red-wave-of-conservative-women-elected-to-congress\/\" title=\"The Red Wave of Conservative Women Elected to Congress\">border security<\/a>,\u201d Crenshaw said. \u201cMarjorie Taylor Greene has never tried to lay out a plan to get border security done along with a supplemental package. I did that. I worked for months to do that. A lot of us did. She has never, Tom Massie has never done anything on that front.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Greene <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/house\/2986240\/mtg-moves-motion-oust-johnson-next-week\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>told reporters<\/a> this week that she plans to call the motion forward next week, putting a notice on the legislation that would require GOP leaders to bring it to the floor within two legislative days.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dI\u2019m excited about it and also can\u2019t wait to see my Republican conference show their cards and show who we are, because voters deserve it,\u201d Greene said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title><strong>CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Massie said he thinks Greene has \u201cgone about this in a very reasonable way,\u201d accusing Johnson of \u201cclinging to power by clinging to Democrats.\u201d The speaker, however, called the Georgia Republican \u201cnot a serious lawmaker,\u201d a point Crenshaw echoed Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a game, and voters have to stop falling for it,\u201d Crenshaw said.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rep.
