众议院议长·迈克·约翰逊和共和党众议员马乔里·泰勒·格林和托马斯·马西周一私下会面，格林威胁要试图驱逐他。
在发言人办公室进行了近两个小时的会议后，格林在镜头前说，他们将在周二早上与约翰逊再次会面。
“我只想感谢大家的等待——我们刚刚与发言人进行了长时间的讨论。基于我们已经进行的讨论，我们明天将再次会面。所以，我们现在真的没有什么新闻可以报道，”格林说。
当美国广播公司的雷切尔·斯科特(Rachel Scott)问及格林是否仍计划推进腾出职位的动议时，这位众议员说:“我们再次与约翰逊议长进行了长时间的讨论。基于我们之前的讨论，我们明天将再次与他会面，然后我会为你提供更多信息。”
当再次被问及她是否计划对一项动议进行投票时，格林说:“我一直很有耐心。我一直很勤奋。我一直很稳定。我一直专注于事实。这些都没有改变。”
格林说，周一下午的会议是关于“如何推进共和党控制的众议院。”
约翰逊说，他今天下午与格林和马西进行了“一次漫长而富有建设性的会谈”。
“我们已经讨论了一些想法，我们将于明天再次会面，”约翰逊说。
约翰逊说，他告诉格林和马西，他理解他们的沮丧，说:“我真的希望在这里每天都推进更多的保守政策。但现实是，我们正以美国历史上最小的多数，以一票之差开展工作。”
“我们将保持这个团队团结一致，为美国人民工作，”约翰逊补充说。
正如格林所说，会议如期举行她将在本周强行投票罢免约翰逊的领导职务.
然而，格林计划何时启动撤离动议仍不清楚。众议院将在周一晚些时候举行投票，之后格林可以就该动议采取行动，但她没有宣布任何消息。
这位佐治亚州国会女议员上周表示，尽管遭到许多共和党人的反对，民主党人也发表声明称他们将继续推进罢免工作介入帮助拯救约翰逊.
5月1日，格林在美国国会大厦外举行的记者招待会上言辞激烈地说:“迈克·约翰逊不能胜任这份工作。”她的共同发起人是肯塔基州的马西。“他已经一次又一次地证明了这一点。”
格林和马西周一继续在社交媒体上公开批评约翰逊。
“本周我们投票决定迈克·约翰逊是否应该继续担任议长，”马西说在X的一份声明中说。“如果你对他今年的所作所为感到满意，如果你期待他在今年剩余时间里的所作所为，你应该和民主党领袖哈基姆·杰弗里斯一起支持迈克·约翰逊。”
格林已经搁置让出议长席位的动议一个多月了。约翰逊对她的批评进行了辩护——即他与民主党人合作保持政府开放，提供外国援助等——强调他是一名终身共和党人，但必须尽自己的职责为共和党占极微弱多数的整个众议院服务。
“这项动议对共和党大会来说是错误的，对该机构来说是错误的，对国家来说也是错误的，”约翰逊上周谈到驱逐威胁时说。
约翰逊上周末还得到了前总统唐纳德·特朗普的支持，他在共和党全国委员会在马拉拉戈举行的春季务虚会上让约翰逊登台。
特朗普的竞选团队称，特朗普称赞约翰逊“在美国众议院的领导和工作”，强调“需要政党团结、协作和扩大共和党在众议院的多数席位”。
上周，格林否认她在推进反对约翰逊的行动中藐视特朗普。
“我是特朗普总统的最大支持者，这就是为什么我每天都在战斗。这就是为什么我在这里反对我自己的共和党会议，以更努力地反对民主党，”她告诉美国广播公司新闻记者伊丽莎白·舒尔茨。
Marjorie Taylor Greene says she'll meet with Speaker Mike Johnson again Tuesday amid threat to oust him
House Speaker Mike Johnson and Republican Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massie met privately on Monday, amid Greene's looming threat to try to oust him.
Emerging from a nearly two-hour meeting inside the speaker's office, Greene said on camera they will have another meeting with Johnson on Tuesday morning.
"I just want to thank you all for waiting -- we just had a very long discussion with the speaker. We are going to be meeting again tomorrow based on the discussion that we've had. And so, we really don't have any news to report at this time," Greene said.
When pressed by ABC's Rachel Scott if Greene still plans to move forward with a motion to vacate, the congresswoman said: "Again, we had a very long discussion with Speaker Johnson. We will be meeting with him again tomorrow based on the discussion that we had and then I'll have more information for you."
Asked again if she plans to force a vote on a motion to vacate, Greene said: "I have been patient. I have been diligent. I have been steady. And I have been focused on the facts. And none of that has changed."
Greene said the meeting Monday afternoon was about "ways to move forward for a Republican-controlled House of Representatives."
Johnson said he had "a lengthy, constructive meeting" with Greene and Massie this afternoon.
"We have discussed some ideas, and we are going to meet again tomorrow," Johnson said.
Johnson said he told Greene and Massie he understands their frustration, saying, "I would really like to advance much more of our conservative policy on a daily basis here. But the reality is we are working with the smallest majority in U.S. history with a one-vote margin."
"We are going to keep this team together and work for the American people," Johnson added.
The meeting comes as Greene has saidshe will force a vote to remove Johnson from the leadership post this week.
The timing of when Greene plans to trigger the motion to vacate, however, remains unclear. The House will hold votes later Monday evening, after which Greene could act on the motion, though she's made no announcements.
The Georgia congresswoman said last week she was moving ahead with her ouster effort despite pushback from many Republicans and a statement from Democrats that they wouldstep in to help save Johnson.
"Mike Johnson is not capable of that job," Greene said in a fiery press conference outside the U.S. Capitol on May 1 alongside her co-sponsor Massie of Kentucky. "He has proven that over and over again."
Greene and Massie continued their criticisms of Johnson publicly on social media on Monday.
"This week we vote on whether Mike Johnson should remain as Speaker," Massiesaid in a statement on X. "If you're happy with what he's done this year and if you're looking forward to what he will do the remainder of the year, you should join the Democrat leader Hakeem Jeffries in supporting Mike Johnson."
Greene has dangled the motion to vacate the speaker's chair for more than a month. Johnson's defended himself from her criticism -- namely that he's worked with Democrats to keep the government open, provide foreign aid and more -- by emphasizing that he's a lifelong Republican, but must do his job to serve the entire House with an extremely thin Republican majority.
"This motion is wrong for the Republican Conference, wrong for the institution, and wrong for the country," Johnson said last week of the ouster threat.
Johnson also received a boost over the weekend from former President Donald Trump, who brought Johnson on stage at the Republican Nation Committee's spring retreat luncheon at Mar-a-Lago.
Trump praised Johnson "for his leadership and work in the US House," emphasizing "the need for party unity, collaboration, and expanding the GOP's House Majority," according to Trump's campaign.
Last week, Greene denied she was defying Trump in pushing ahead against Johnson.
"I'm the biggest supporter of President Trump and that's why I fight every single day. And that's why I'm fighting here against my own Republican conference to fight harder against the Democrats," she told ABC News Correspondent Elizabeth Schulze.
