President-elect Trump said he has been in touch with Republican holdouts ahead of Friday afternoon’s Speaker vote, as uncertainty swirls about whether Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) has enough support to be reelected leader,

That’s according to Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade, co-host of “Fox and Friends,” as the new Congress convenes Friday and House Speaker Mike Johnson could be in jeopardy of keeping his title. His grip on the gavel threatens not only his own survival but President-elect Donald Trump ’s ambitious agenda once he’s sworn into office later this month.

When Friday morning, January 3 arrived and a new Congress was getting ready to be seated, Rep. Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) was hoping that he would have enough votes from fellow Republicans to remain House speaker.
