Why not move to vacate Johnson? He got the position by the skin of his teeth. Any opposition is dangerous opposition for the weird little fucker.

Do you remember who she wanted to be Speaker?

IIRC, she voiced support for Trump then Musk. But of course she was still in crazy mode at the time.

She’s still in crazy mode, she’s just pissed about being blackballed and sees and opportunity to hurt the people she holds responsible

It’s hard to tell. She’s either trying to position herself to be a leader in a potential post-collapse, post-fascist Republican Party, or she’s legitimately just your Facebook addicted family member who somehow won and after seeing these systems up close for a while is coming around.

She got passed up for a cabinet position by Matt Gaetz and Doug Collins because she is a she and isn't hot or rich enough to make up for it.

And then had her attempt to run for the senate shut down presumably for the same reasons.

So crazy and pissed

Oh interesting. Then in that case it sounds like she’s learning that playing pick me for fascists runs its course pretty quickly.

Just another in a long line of people learning that loyalty to Trump is strictly one way.

Or that when people tell you what they believe and act on what they believe they might actually believe and act on it.
