A few more items from MTG and Massie:

Thomas Massie
@RepThomasMassie
How much more do Republicans need to see to understand Johnson is fully compromised? Democrat Congressman Jerrold Nadler endorses saving Mike Johnson as Speaker.
“We should save him”
“We can’t permit him to be punished for doing the right thing”

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene????
@RepMTG
Threatening members of Congress with punishment for voting as a conservative is absurd.

If Mike Johnson stopped bringing Democrat bills to the floor, he wouldn’t have this problem.

With threats like these, he’ll lose more Republican members’ support.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene????
@RepMTG
The entire Democrat Party is lining up behind Mike Johnson.

First, it was the entire leadership team for the Democrats.

Now, Nancy Pelosi, who impeached President Trump TWICE, has given Johnson her seal of approval.

What deal has been made??

Thomas Massie
@RepThomasMassie
Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries gloats that Democrats control the House of Representatives under Mike Johnson, yet some of my Republican colleagues want to continue business as usual for the rest of the year.

Obligatory 'muh margin'
Attack Helicopter 1776
@AttackCopter76
@RepThomasMassie
can you point to a time in history a speaker with this slim of a majority actually got something done.

You say majority as if the speaker has a 20-30 vote majority which is clearly not the case. It literally is get 99.9% of GOP to agree or nothing gets done.

Thomas Massie
@RepThomasMassie
His talking point doesn’t match the facts. Regardless of the slimness of our majority, why should spending increase, why should we build the FBI a new HQ, and why should warrantless spying be authorized? This isn’t “getting nothing done”; this our Speaker doing their bidding.

It MTG's fault for forcing Johnson to make a deal with the Democrats. She gave him two choices: 1. Be removed as speaker, or 2. Compromise with Dems to save your Speakership.
