"Growing Momentum to Oust Mike Johnson as House Speaker"

TL;DR Summary
House Speaker Mike Johnson faces calls for his resignation from far-right members, including a bid led by Marjorie Taylor Greene, after he agreed to consider legislation for military aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. Kentucky Representative Thomas Massie has joined Greene's effort, but Johnson has dismissed the demand as absurd, stating that he will continue to do his job. Democrats have indicated they may rally in defense of Johnson if he follows through on bringing up the full supplemental funding package without controversial amendments.
