Speaker Mike Johnson wasted little time after 163 Democrats voted to save his speakership to announce he would not use Congress’s constitutional power of the purse to stop special counsel Jack Smith’s “lawfare” against Donald Trump.
When asked straightforwardly if he would write language eliminating Smith’s job into appropriations bills, Johnson replied “no.” Greene and Rep. Thomas Massie , who partnered to pull the trigger Wednesday night forcing a vote to eject Johnson after weeks pressuring him to end his coalition government with Democrats, had been pressuring Johnson to put up a fight against Democrats with spending bills and other must-pass legislation, such as the Federal Aviation Authority reauthorization, currently being considered.
Greene and Massie forced a motion to vacate vote hours later to let voters know where their representatives stood. The tally was revealing.
