Heart and Soul Conversation # 7 Spring, Horses and Hope

March 24th

I made the grade. I’m famous!
Someone actually requested a topic for one my Heart & Soul Conversations.

That led to today’s H&S Conversation about Spring, horses and hope. It’s one of my Heart & Soul Essays from 8 years past about a very special guy named Connor.

Trump losing control of Marjorie Taylor Greene as she ignores his latest request: reporter



Former President Donald Trump has personally reached out to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) to get her to end her crusade against House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) — but, reported CNN's Melanie Zanona on Wednesday, she is not dissuaded.

Johnson appears set to survive the upcoming vote next week brought by Greene to vacate his office, with House Democrats planning to supply the necessary votes to stop another round of chaos similar to that following the ouster of his predecessor Kevin McCarthy. But Greene, enraged over his decision to allow Ukraine defense aid to pass the House, is determined to move ahead with the vote anyway, which she claims will put everyone in the House on record where they stand.

"Greene says she's actually planning to force a vote next week," said anchor Brianna Keilar, turning to Zanona. "How's this going to play out?"

"Well, even though Speaker Mike Johnson is expected to keep his job, there is still a lot of anger towards Marjorie Taylor Greene for pushing ahead with this move," said Zanona.

"Even Donald Trump doesn't want her to follow through," Zanona continued — which follows his decision to hold a press conference with Johnson a few weeks ago expressing his confidence in the speaker. "I'm told that he communicated to the head of the RNC that he wanted him to relay to the House Republican Conference during a meeting yesterday that Trump wants to see the party united ahead of November, but so far that has not deterred Greene."

"She's planning to call it this motion next week," she added. "When that happens, leadership is expected to quickly tee up a vote to kill or table that motion."
