Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene called her unsuccessful attempt to remove House Speaker Mike Johnson a "great victory."

The Georgia Republican was jeered by members of her own party on Wednesday when she introduced the motion to vacate, which lost 359 to 43, with 163 Democrats voting to keep Johnson in the post.

During an appearance Thursday on Steve Bannon's right-wing podcast, she was asked about her gambit to remove Johnson, a Republican from Louisiana.

"You heard the K Street money just absolutely through the instruments of the Democratic Party and the Republican people that have been bought off, booed you, you know, lustily," Bannon, a former adviser in Donald Trump's White House said, Raw Story reported.

"Well, that was exactly what I expected, Steve," Greene responded. "And you know, I think it was a great victory yesterday."

"It was a great victory for the American people to see the truth, for the curtain to be drawn back and them to see the ugly truth," she added.

Greene blamed "the uniparty" for her motion going down to overwhelming defeat.

"You can talk about the special interests controlling Washington, D.C., but the vote yesterday proved that Mike Johnson is completely bought and paid for by the Democrats," said Greene, who had claimed Johnson betrayed GOP values by backing a military aid package to Ukraine.

"Democrats can't take control of the House. Hakeem Jeffries cannot become Speaker of the House, because we have the votes and we hold the majority," she said, referring to the Democratic leader in the House.

If Johnson would have been ousted, it would have been the second Republican speaker to be removed in less than a year.

Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy was removed in October 2023 after Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz introduced a motion to vacate.

Jeffries addressed the stakes of Greene's move after the vote.

"Our decision to stop Marjorie Taylor Greene from plunging the House of Representatives and the country into further chaos is rooted in our commitment to solve problems for everyday Americans in a bipartisan manner," he told reporters. "We will continue to govern in a reasonable, responsible and results-oriented fashion, and put people over politics all day and every day."
