House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) is shrugging off a fresh round of criticism from Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), who accused him of hypocrisy.
“I try not to react to what Marjorie Taylor Greene says every day,” Johnson said at a press conference on Friday. “I don’t know what she’s talking about.”
Despite her history as a conservative firebrand, Greene has in recent weeks been critical of her own party, particularly with regard to the ongoing government shutdown.
In a Thursday interview with Axios, she took aim at Johnson over his refusal to answer questions about Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.), who has been hit with a restraining order after a former girlfriend, Lindsay Langston, accused him of threatening to release sexually explicit photos of her following their split.
“They expelled George Santos, Mike Johnson did. He was speaker and oversaw George Santos being expelled,” she told the outlet. “Why isn’t he doing anything about Cory Mills?”
