Marjorie Taylor Greene Challenges House Speaker, Sparks GOP Clash: 'The Honeymoon Is Over'

U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is making waves and causing headaches for Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) as he steps into his role leading the House GOP conference with a narrow majority.

What Happened: In a recent interview with The Hill, Greene did not hold back when expressing her disapproval of Johnson's actions and leadership within the Republican Party.

She referred to him as "terrible" and accused him of betraying conservative principles.

According to Greene, Johnson's stance changed significantly just a month after assuming the role of House Speaker.

Honeymoon? I think it would be a nightmare to wake up next to her.

He's not impressed with her and not interested in backrooming with her and her conspiracies. It's hard to tell which of the two is more toxic.

His son is watching so no funny business with her like kevvy did. Pretty sure she nailed him and he was all too will to "...never leave her." That's backroom affair talk. I think this clown show is a little too old for Johnson's tastes.

She's such a piece of work. A classic case of someone overestimating their importance.
