Former President Trump is showing support for Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's push to take funding from Special Counsel Jack Smith's office.
Former President Trump appears to be showing some support for a key demand Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., has made of Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., amid her threats to force a House-wide vote on the GOP leader's ouster. Greene took to social media on Tuesday evening to share a photo of a document shared with her by Trump.
'm fighting for President Trump, our Republican majority, and every person who believes in our America First agenda. Proud to have the support of President Trump, and he has mine!' Greene wrote when sharing the message on X. Defunding the special counsel's office is one of several demands Greene and Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., shared with Johnson earlier this week.
Trump himself has voiced support for Johnson both publicly and privately amid Greene's ouster threats. 'It’s not like he can go and do whatever he wants to do,' Trump said earlier this month to radio host John Fredericks, citing Johnson's razor-thin House majority. 'I think he’s a very good person. You know, he stood very strongly with me on NATO when I said NATO has to pay up… It’s a tough situation when you have. I think he’s a very good man. I think he’s trying very hard.
Rep. Dan Meuser, R-Pa., another Trump ally, told Fox News Digital on Tuesday, 'I was with President Trump over the weekend. He's with Mike Johnson.' 'He thinks he's doing his best in a difficult situation,' Meuser said when asked for details of their conversation. Of the motion to vacate, Meuser said of Trump, 'I think he would prefer that not to occur right now.' Fox News Digital reached out to Johnson's office for comment on Greene's push.
