Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., met with Johnson twice this week on Monday and Tuesday, but refused to answer questions after the meetings about whether or not she still plans to force a vote on a motion to vacate the speaker’s chair, only telling reporters that “the ball is in Mike Johnson’s court,” after she demanded several promises from the speaker.

Fallon said on “National Report” that the motion to oust Johnson is “not constructive,” noting that “it was difficult enough in November,” to elect Johnson after former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., was forced out last year.
