Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Sunday said House Speaker Mike Johnson “betrayed” Republican voters after the House approved new aid to Ukraine, threatening to call a vote for his ouster if he doesn’t resign.
“Mike Johnson’s speakership is over. He needs to do the right thing to resign and allow us to move forward in a controlled process. If he doesn’t do so, he will be vacated,” Greene said on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures.”
After months of resisting putting a foreign aid bill on the House floor, Johnson joined with Democrats on Saturday to advance a $95 billion foreign aid package, which contains $61 billion for Ukraine and regional partners. The legislation – which passed with the support of 210 Democrats and 101 Republicans – now heads to the Senate, which is expected to give final approval this week.
Should Greene and her supporters make good on their threat to force a vote on ousting him as speaker, Johnson will almost certainly need to rely on Democrats to bail him out.
The Georgia hardliner is one of at least three Republicans who have said they will support a move to oust Johnson — whose majority is so slim he cannot afford to lose any Republicans on a party-line vote.

“She needs to stop. She is doing more harm than good.”
So clue us in on your big plan to turn things around.
Dude. Be advised: these people are sick and will stop at nothing. We can hold out a few more months without making it easier for them to block him from taking office. be strategic now and vindictive later .
That pesky apostrophe. 🥴
I can answer that. Elect Trump.
Duh.
You got that right!
Rhen we get the party atarted.
I’m ready to go to war, we are already in one.
Repukes are better in the minority. At least they’ll vote against Democrat bills but when those same bills come from Johnso they’re all aboard. Id rather they have more votes and not hold the speakership. Let a Democrat speaker pass Democrat bills (although we know that 95% of congress share one brain)
There is no point. There are 100 more GOP traitors waiting behind Johnson.
Who will take Johnson’s place? We do not have enough good ones.
Who thinks Johnson is going to raise money to benefit Trump or Republicans?
He’s sitting in for Hakeem now.
He’s not making sure the Dems are flush with money and then suddenly going to see the Republicans are in charge.
They banished Santos but announced on Thanksgiving like cowards that Fire Alarm Jamaal was cleared.
You’re ain’t getting shi/t from deep state controlled Johnson.
“The woman is an idiot.”
Totally agree.
She’s just working for her own personal branding and media celebrity. Maybe in her dreams, she even spells W-H-I-T-E-H-O-U-S-E for herself!
Uh huh...So what happened with Republican Bush?
Right, I’ve been here posting on a regular basis since 1998 you moron. Stop it with the liberal insults and use your head. You are reacting exactly how they want you to.
McCarthy is winning, he has talked these RINOs into quitting before their term was up. Why do you suppose he’s doing that? MTG needs to figure out she is being manipulated before it’s too late.
I think you're the idiot...One with a short memory.
And what do you think will happen to Trump and the election if the Dems hold the house. Do you think Jeffers will allow Trump electors? Seriously? They are already talking about it.
GOP voters are a easy mark. Did they rise up when their sons and grandsons went to save the world in Iraq, Afghanistan? Did they revolt from the massive covid spending under the Trump admin? Now?
They will grit their teeth and vote GOP, which is exactly what the parties know and expect. There is no going back. They sold you out decades ago. Wake up. Johnson and crew are behaving exactly like they would always do.
Do they give you an extra serving of borscht at lunch for posting Putin’s propaganda points?
My big plan is for the Republican house to certify Trumps election, something a Democrat house will refuse to do.
And then what? There’s no plan. Just 11th grade high school drama llamas.
And the Dems laugh because the GOP can’t get their crap together.
Keep it up and we’ll lose the House and deserve it.
