Republicans Fresh attack on speaker after deal passes vote in House

Johnson had betrayed his party, was working for the Democrats, and his speaker-ship was over”, the Georgia representative said, although it was not clear if and when Greene would file a motion to try to remove him, which she has threatened to do in recent weeks.

The fresh criticism from Greene came after Johnson ended months of stalling on the aid package for Ukraine’s defence against Russia as well as billions for allies including Israel and Taiwan and finally forced avote onitin the House on Saturday, defying the right of his party.

Inabipartisan vote, 210 Democrats and 101 Republicans joined to support Ukraine, with 112 Republicans - a majority of the GOP members - voting against.

"He is absolutely working for the Democrats. He's passing the Biden administration's agenda," Greene said of Johnson on Fox News's Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo.

"Mike Johnson's speaker-ship 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."
