Marjorie Taylor Greene Criticizes House Speaker Mike Johnson's Early Record
Greene Forces Votes on Contentious Issues, Criticizes Johnson's Positions, and Publicly Spars with Other Members
- Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene criticizes House Speaker Mike Johnson's early record, calling it 'terrible' and accusing him of going against his own voting record.
- Greene has forced votes on contentious issues, criticized Johnson's positions on government funding and Ukraine aid, and publicly sparred with other members.
- Greene opposed Johnson's plan to group Ukraine aid and border security together, calling it a 'bad strategy'.
- She also criticized Johnson's decision to put a 'clean' two-step continuing resolution (CR) on the floor to avert a government shutdown, a move similar to what led to former speaker Kevin McCarthy's ouster.
- Despite the criticism, Greene says she would like to help Johnson be successful, but he needs to earn her trust and listen to her ideas.
