Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene
Hi, I'm proud to let you know that my amendment using the Holman rule to fire Secretary Lloyd Austin just passed on the House floor.
This is the first time in the 118th Congress that we have used the Holman rule.
This is the first one introduced.
And as a matter of fact, it's the first time the Holman rule has been used in years.
The Holman rule is a very important tool that Members of Congress can use to fire federal government officials.
And Lloyd Austin, the Secretary of Defense of the United States, definitely deserves to be fired.
He failed in Afghanistan, military recruitment is at an all-time low, and he forced 8,000 military troops out of the military because they refused the COVID vaccine.
There's a loss in confidence in Lloyd Austin's leadership and he deserves to be fired.
So my amendment to fire him using the Holman rule, reducing his salary down to $1, and $1 is too much, just passed on the House floor.
Share the good news, everyone!
