BREAKING: Trump gets nightmare Monday news as it's revealed that an "explosive" wave of House Republicans will soon resign like Marjorie Taylor Greene did — destroying Mike Johnson's Speakership.
This has MAGA world in an absolute panic...
"A few other GOP members messaged us over the weekend saying that they, too, are considering retiring in the middle of the term," Jake Sherman of Punchbowl News wrote on X.
"Here’s one particularly exercised senior House Republican: 'This entire White House team has treated ALL members like garbage. ALL. And Mike Johnson has let it happen because he wanted it to happen. That is the sentiment of nearly all — appropriators, authorizers, hawks, doves, rank and file. The arrogance of this White House team is off putting to members who are run roughshod and threatened. They don’t even allow little wins like announcing small grants or even responding from agencies. Not even the high profile, the regular rank and file random members are more upset than ever. Members know they are going into the minority after the midterms."
“More explosive early resignations are coming. It’s a tinder box. Morale has never been lower. Mike Johnson will be stripped of his gavel and they will lose the majority before this term is out.”
Sherman wrote a followup post shortly after—
"since this ran this morning -- 4 hours ago? -- ive gotten countless text messages from House Republicans agreeing with this sentiment," he stated. "and saying why the hell should we stay in congress if all we're going to do is vote on censures and be a potted plant."
Marjorie Taylor Greene announced her shocking resignation last Friday after a protracted and ugly falling out with Donald Trump. She defended her decision to stand up for Jeffrey Epstein's victims by demanding transparency on the files, complaining that she should not be "called a traitor and threatened by the President of the United States" for doing so. For once, we agree with her.
Greene also pointed to the fact that Republicans are likely to lose the midterm elections. She'll officially leave Congress in 42 days and her departure seems to have opened the gates for a wider exodus of Republican lawmakers.
And why would any of them want to remain? When the full scope of Trump's predatory relationship with Epstein hits the public, every Republican who has enabled him will get permanently tarred. On top of that, consumer prices are skyrocketing thanks to his tariffs, healthcare premiums are going through the roof, and Trump has no plan to fix any of it. His administration is a historic failure with zero upside.
As if that weren't bad enough, government funding expires at the end of January, meaning Republicans could face another deeply unpopular shutdown. There is little incentive to stick around and watch as the American people grow to despise them more and more.
If more Republicans follow Greene's lead, Johnson's razor thin majority could finally collapse. A special election next month could offset the loss of Greene's vote if Republicans win, but there are likely Democratic wins expected in December. If the math breaks bad for Johnson, he could end up with a 218 to 216 majority. At that point, any more resignations will sink him.
Please retweet and ❤️ if you think that more Republicans should resign!
I'm embarrassed by Trump & Vance. I'm embarrassed by any Americans who presume to tell a country's president- whose country has been devastated by an unprovoked attack with millions of its citizens killed, permanently disabled, displaced or living under hostile rule by its invader - what he & his country should or should not accept. You don't want to fund, don't fund, & take responsibility for the consequences. But Trump doesn't do responsibility, he doesn't do empathy, he doesn’t respect the sovereignty of other countries & the authority of their elected officials. How dare Trump & Vance treat Zelensky this way in public! It's even worse than Trump calling Trudeau governor, which also is disgraceful. Americans can disagree on funding & providing arms to Ukraine, but doing so without also providing troops on the ground doesn't give us any right to dictate terms to Zelensky. Not to mention that we choose to support Ukraine or not based on our elected officials' determination of what's best in our national interests. Trump & Vance are the worst of our country. Nice job, America.
@BET@MichaelEaly @RealDLHughley While you’re talking about what did they do for Black peoples while they were in office. What did you do for yourself? Don’t worry when Trump get in office you will be going back to your native home. Trump only cares about Trump and trying to stay out of jail. Wake up people. 💙
Let’s talk receipts.
@MichaelEaly believes Vice President Harris is more than qualified to be President based off her track record and experience. @RealDLHughley shares how research has helped him come to that.

It’s time, President Bush. Your parents stood up to Donald Trump, and now your daughter has too.
RETWEET if you think George W. Bush should endorse Kamala Harris!
