Defiant House Speaker Mike Johnson faces Republican backlash but vows to proceed with U.S. aid package for Ukraine, Israel, etc., risking reliance on Democrats for passage.
Johnson, dubbed a 'wartime speaker,' rejects calls to resign, determined to pass aid despite objections, seeking votes for separate packages and presidential approval.
Shift in tone as Johnson pushes forward with separate votes for aid sections, emboldened by support from former President Trump, critical of the motion to oust him.
