President-elect Donald Trump endorsed House Speaker Mike Johnson to retain the gavel, but Rep. Victoria Spartz is demanding "assurances" that Johnson "won't sell us out to the swamp."
"I understand why President Trump is endorsing Speaker Johnson as he did Speaker Ryan, which is definitely important. However, we still need to get assurances that @SpeakerJohnson won’t sell us out to the swamp," Spartz noted in a post on X. Alex Nitzberg is a writer for Fox News Digital.
"President Trump will be able to save America only if we have a speaker with courage, vision and a plan - also public commitment to the American people how he will help deliver President Trump’s agenda to drain the swamp," she added in another tweet.
Spartz had previously issued a statement on Monday in which she called out Congress's profligate spending and demanded a plan to accomplish President-elect Donald Trump's agenda, something which she said she has not seen from current House Speaker Mike Johnson.
