Rep. Victoria Spartz demands ‘assurances’ Speaker Johnson ‘won’t sell us out to the swamp’

As House Speaker Mike Johnson seeks to retain his grip on the gavel, Rep. Victoria Spartz, R-Ind., is demanding ‘assurances’ that Johnson ‘won’t sell us out to the swamp.’

Johnson, who secured the speaker’s gavel last year, got a major boost on Monday when Trump endorsed him to remain in the role.

‘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. 

‘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.

‘Congress has abandoned its constitutional duty to the American people to properly oversee the spending of their hard-earned money paid as taxes,’ Spartz declared in the statement. ‘Our next speaker must show courageous leadership to get our country back on track before this ‘Titanic’ strikes an iceberg at any moment.’

Fox News Digital reached out to Johnson’s office but no comment was provided.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump described Johnson as ‘a good, hard working, religious man,’ and declared, ‘He will do the right thing, and we will continue to WIN. Mike has my Complete & Total Endorsement. MAGA!!!’

Speaker Johnson thanked Trump in a post on X, noting, ‘Together, we will quickly deliver on your America First agenda and usher in the new golden age of America. The American people demand and deserve that we waste no time. Let’s get to work!’

Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., who has said that he will not vote for Johnson to remain speaker, maintained his position on Monday after Trump’s endorsement.

‘I respect and support President Trump, but his endorsement of Mike Johnson is going to work out about as well as his endorsement of Speaker Paul Ryan. We’ve seen Johnson partner with the democrats to send money to Ukraine, authorize spying on Americans, and blow the budget,’ Massie tweeted.
