Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) stunned MAGA influencer Steve Bannon by revealing there were "whispers" that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) could be planning to pass a continuing resolution (CR) to keep the government open in the coming weeks.
During a Tuesday interview, Bannon asked Greene if Johnson had the votes in the House to "rubber stamp" President Donald Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill after the Senate approves it.
"I cannot imagine. No, no!" Greene exclaimed. "I can't imagine they have the votes. There's no way that Johnson has the votes in the House for this."
The lawmaker argued that specific provisions in the bill — such as funding for border security — must pass.
"And I want to tell everyone clearly, I want to tell everyone clearly, that this bill is maybe the only true victory once we get it right, once we can get it to a good point," she explained. "It may be our only real victory this Congress because there are whispers, and the whispers are getting louder and louder in the House that we are being told that they're going to give us another CR on September 30th."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!" Bannon interrupted. "What's that whisper about what?"
"Yeah, the CR, CR. So, government funding has to be done," Greene confirmed.
"Oh, my God!" Bannon gasped.
"Yeah, it's, that's absolutely, that's a non-starter. They're just the non-starter. And Steve, that should make everyone furious," Greene said.
