Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) said she does not care ‘if the Speaker’s office becomes a revolving door’ as she leads the effort to remove Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) from the job.
“I don’t care if the Speaker’s office becomes a revolving door,” Greene told Steve Bannon on his ‘War Room’ podcast. “If that’s exactly what needs to happen, then let it be. But the days are over of the old Republican Party that wants to fund foreign wars and murder people in foreign lands, while they stab the American people in their face.”
Johnson announced earlier this week that the House will vote this weekend on three separate bills providing aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.
Greene, who filed a motion to vacate the chair last month, previously said that Johnson passing additional aid to Ukraine is “one of the most egregious things that he can do.”
The move to oust Johnson has been gaining steam after he announced the plan to pass additional foreign aid with at least one Republican lawmaker, Rep. Thomas Massie (Ky.) publicly supporting Greene’s measure.
