Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is targeting House Speaker Mike Johnson with her conspiratorial kvetching in an effort to bring him to heel. Greene filed a motion to vacate the speaker’s chair last month before the House went on recess, claiming that his support for a spending deal that prevented a government shutdown showed a lack of loyalty to the conservative movement.
But she went on to suggest that Johnson had defied his faith by backing a bill that included funds for a women’s health clinic and a nonprofit group that provides assistance to trans people, and she questioned what would convince him to do so. “I mean, how does that even happen from a Christian conservative Republican speaker?” she asked.
