""They expelled George Santos, Mike Johnson did. He was Speaker and oversaw George Santos being expelled. Why isn't he doing anything about Cory Mills?" Greene told Axios. "There's clearly proof behind her accusations that a judge is issuing a restraining order. So I would say to Speaker Johnson, this is a serious matter, and it needs to be taken seriously." Mills has previously denied the allegations."
""He called the House vote on expelling Santos \"a regrettable day.\" \"Our party believes in the rule of law and due process, and we're deeply concerned about preserving those things,\" Johnson said on \"Fox and Friends.\" \"And, you know, maybe he will be convicted by a jury of his peers, but that hasn't happened yet. And that's why we had reservations about it.\" Santos subsequently pleaded guilty to identity theft and wire fraud and is serving an 87-month prison sentence.""
Marjorie Taylor Greene accused House Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans of hypocrisy for not taking action regarding a protective order tied to Rep. Cory Mills. Greene pointed to judicial documentation and urged serious attention to the matter. Johnson did not vote to expel George Santos, citing due process concerns and warning about precedent; Santos later pleaded guilty and is serving prison time. Greene has clashed with fellow Republicans on other issues, including signing a discharge petition to unseal files related to the Jeffrey Epstein probe. Cory Mills denies the allegations tied to the protective order.
