On The View, Greene Blames Speaker Johnson for Shutdown, Vows to Refuse Pay

The civil daytime interview highlighted her public break with Republican leaders.

Overview

  • Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene told The View that Congress “has failed,” placing responsibility for the shutdown on Speaker Mike Johnson and saying she recently yelled at him on a GOP call over the lack of a single healthcare plan.
  • She said she is not taking her congressional paycheck during the shutdown and called for a public list showing which members are accepting pay.
  • Greene backed releasing Jeffrey Epstein–related client files and said she would sign any resolution to make the records public.
  • She reaffirmed personal loyalty to President Trump but said it is fine if he is upset with her right now, noting he “yells at everybody.”
  • The appearance drew applause in the studio, while some viewers criticized the show for being too gentle, and Greene said paid MAGA influencers attacked her for doing the interview.
