NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: GOP Congresswoman Majorie Taylor Greene defended herself against criticisms from members of her own party while discussing her motion to remove Mike Johnson as House Speaker with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday, March 24.

The US Representative shared the conversation on X (formerly Twitter) while taking another dig at Johnson, accusing him of leading Republicans to a "complete catastrophe."

"People in your own party are attacking you saying we do not need more division," Bartimoro told Greene during the interview, pointing out that with Republicans such as Ken Buck and Mike Gallagher leaving Congress, the majority is in a more precarious position.

"Those people stepping down early and leaving are the ones that are leaving us at risk of the Democrats controlling the majority, not me," responded Greene, Fox News reported.

"I filed this motion to vacate, but I haven't called it to the floor. This is like issuing a pink slip, and giving out conference a notice saying that we have got to find a new Speaker. This may take weeks, it may take months ... it may not (happen until) next Congress, but Speaker Johnson cannot remain a speaker of the House," she said.

Greene further slammed Gallagher for leaving at a time when his district could not hold a special election to replace him, and called out Johnson for supporting the move.

Bartimoro later asked if Greene's efforts could hurt Donald Trump in the upcoming elections in any way, to which the Congresswoman replied, "Not at all. President Trump is overwhelmingly winning this election in poll after poll ... Trump would drag every Republican through the victory whether they deserve it or not."



 

Internet mocks Marjorie Taylor Greene as she defended herself for motion to remove Mike Johnson

Netizens brutally slammed Marjorie Taylor Greene over her motion and the infighting among the Republicans.

"I'm all for you continuing to push your own members out and handing the majority over. That is what your infighting is bringing you 👍🏻," wrote a user.



 

"You’re driving a ford pinto blindfolded full throttle straight towards a concrete wall. Keep it up, you’re going great 🤣," chided another.

"Republicans can’t govern, Marge. We need Speaker Jeffries!" stated a third.



 

"Marge, You and your radical right-wing extremists in the House are the reason we don't have a border bill. You'd rather shut down the government than govern. Maybe it's because you have an aversion to doing the hard work of governance, which demands compromise," noted a fourth.



 

"Problem is you talk too much without any action. You are just making noise but can do nothing! Let Mike Johnson do his job of being Speaker!!" jibed another.
