Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., unleashed a lengthy and at times bitter assessment of some of her Republican colleague’s loyalty on Friday evening for failing to unite behind President Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., to pass the party’s budget.

Reps. Chip Roy of Texas, Ralph Norman of South Carolina, Josh Brecheen of Oklahoma, and Andrew Clyde of Georgia all voted against advancing the bill in the House Budget Committee where it was defeated in a final vote of 16-21.
