In a recent segment on Tuesday’s WarRoom with Steve Bannon, the spotlight fell on the growing demand among supporters of President Donald J. Trump for the removal of Republican Speaker Mike Johnson. The consensus among three distinct voices—Dr. Monica Crowley, Mike Lindell, and Jim Rickards—was resounding: Johnson must go, one way or another, to make room for the advancement of Trump’s agenda.
At the center of this fervor is US Rep. Majorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who has emerged as a vocal advocate for what she perceives as a betrayal of Republican values by Speaker Johnson. Greene’s insistence on forcing a House vote on a motion to vacate has put her at odds with some in her party, who view her demands as too extreme. However, for Crowley, Lindell, and Rickards, Greene doesn’t represent a lone voice but a voice of courage in Washington, championing a cause they believe is essential for the future of the GOP and the American people.
Dr. Monica Crowley, a seasoned political commentator and former Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs for the U.S. Department of the Treasury under the Trump administration, brings her expertise to the table. With a background in both government and media, Crowley’s support for Greene’s stance underscores the depth of concern among Trump loyalists regarding Johnson’s leadership.
Joining Crowley is Mike Lindell, a successful small businessman known for his unwavering support of Trump. Lindell’s presence adds weight to the argument for Johnson’s removal, reflecting the sentiment among grassroots supporters who view the current GOP leadership as obstructive to the America First agenda.
Jim Rickards, an American lawyer, investment banker, and respected author in the realm of finance and precious metals, lends further credibility to the call for change. Rickards’ insight into economic matters aligns with the broader concerns of Trump supporters, who see the need for a shift in leadership to safeguard America’s interests.
The convergence of these voices on WarRoom signals a significant turning point in the ongoing power struggle within the Republican Party. As the rift between establishment figures and Trump loyalists widens, the demand for Speaker Johnson’s ousting gains momentum. Whether through internal pressure or public outcry, the message is clear: Johnson’s tenure is untenable, and his removal is necessary to pave the way for a resurgence of Trump’s influence and the advancement of America First policies.

MTG'S STRATEGY: A WIN-WIN SCENARIO
Rickards: We’re going to lose bc the Dems will side with a certain # of Reps. So that's a very likely outcome, but it still serves the purpose. @RepMTG wins either way. She wins the vote. That's great. But even if she loses the vote, she's… pic.twitter.com/DcUqgyLUjy
