WASHINGTON U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson and Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene plan to meet privately Tuesday amid her calls for him to resign or face a floor vote that could, but likely wont, remove the Louisiana Republican from leadership.
Greene announced the meeting Monday evening after she and Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie met privately with Johnson for two hours over disagreements about how hes been running the House with a narrow GOP majority.
Greene, speaking briefly to reporters outside the speakers office after the meeting wrapped up, didnt divulge details of what she, Massie and Johnson discussed.
Let me tell you, I have been patient. I have been diligent. I have been steady. And Ive been focused on the facts, Greene said. And none of that has changed. So I just had a long discussion with the speaker in his office about ways to move forward for a Republican-controlled House of Representatives.

Last week, Greene threatened to move forward with a motion to vacate over her dissatisfaction with the Speakers handling of the government funding legislation. (Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images)
