Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has stirred controversy by threatening to call for the ouster of House Speaker Mike Johnson following the House's approval of new aid to Ukraine. Greene accused Johnson of betraying Republican voters after he joined with Democrats to advance a $95 billion foreign aid package, which includes $61 billion for Ukraine and regional partners.
The legislation passed with the support of 210 Democrats and 101 Republicans, leading Greene to declare that Johnson's speakership is over unless he resigns. Should Greene and her supporters follow through on their threat to force a vote on ousting Johnson, he may need to rely on Democrats to retain his position due to his slim majority.
