Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Georgia Republican, called for a vote on a motion to vacate the chair, targeting Speaker Johnson. Despite her efforts, the motion failed, and many lawmakers booed her during her speech on the floor. Greene defended her actions, stating that she acted in the interest of the American people to put America first. She also referred to the opposition as the 'uniparty.' Ultimately, Greene lost in her attempt to unseat the Speaker.
