Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) called on Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on Sunday to push for Rep. Mike Gallagher’s (R-Wis.) expulsion from Congress ahead of his scheduled departure next month to allow his district time to select a new representative.

That makes sense to me. Why should this guy be allowed to quit just past the time an election could be called and deny his voters representation?

It's an odd idea because he could just say he's going to stay, then quit.

I don’t know.

I think it’s more like he’s giving his constituents a giant middle finger.

It would be hilarious if Greene is successful and his district elects a Democrat in the special election.

You need a 2/3 vote by the House to expel a member. Not gonna happen.
