Marjorie Taylor Greene vs. Everybody!
The impending war against the radical and racist Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia now appears to include — well, everybody!
Politics
As if news that the majority of MAGA fanatics who attacked the US Capitol never bothered to vote in the 2020 presidential election wasn’t bad enough, now comes even worse news for another Trump sycophant.
In case you’ve been living under a rock, Marjorie Taylor Greene is the newly-elected congresswoman from a conservative district in Georgia who believes the Sandy Hook Elementary School and Parkland High School shootings were faked, that Democrats are running a satanic pedophile ring from inside the government and are eating babies, and that Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Nancy Pelosi should be assassinated.
She’s also quickly become the Republican Party’s new worst nightmare.
Because Marjorie Taylor Greene represents the Trump/MAGA kooks of the party, GOP operatives are afraid of her (and the power she wields with all the MAGA idiots in her corner). In fact, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is so shaken by the radical congresswoman, that he appointed her to the coveted House Education and Budget Committees. He also vowed to have “a talk” with her about her radical, racist, and anti-Semitic tweets and comments (a “talk??”).
Now, it appears a growing tidal wave of Democrats and Republicans are coming for Marjorie Taylor Greene — and they want her gone YESTERDAY!
House Democrats have moved to strip Rep. Greene of her committee assignments, presenting an ultimatum to McCarthy that he either handle her himself or else Democrats will bring the issue to the House floor to have her ejected.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell delivered a surprise and scathing rebuke of Greene without ever mentioning her name.
“Loony lies and conspiracy theories are cancer for the Republican Party and our country,” McConnell said in a statement. “Somebody who’s suggested that perhaps no airplane hit the Pentagon on 9/11, that horrifying school shootings were pre-staged, and that the Clintons crashed JFK Jr.’s airplane is not living in reality. This has nothing to do with the challenges facing American families or the robust debates on substance that can strengthen our party,” he added.

The real cancer for the Republican Party is weak Republicans who only know how to lose gracefully.
This is why we are losing our country.

Even some of Greene’s colleagues in the MAGA movement believe her rhetoric has gone too far and is bad for business.
“People like Greene, the ‘Shaman’ who now wants to testify at the Democrat impeachment farce against President Trump, and the rest of the gang keep playing into the hands of the Left,” wrote Daniel Greenfield of the conservative Frontpage Magazine.
“Maybe that’s an accident or maybe that’s on purpose. It doesn’t really matter. We know what the threat is. It’s the Left. Anyone who distracts us from fighting the Left is playing into its hands. We don’t need antisemitic kooks in this movement. And we don’t need crazies who think the X-Files are real. What we need is to take the fight to the Left by exposing their agenda. And we can’t do that when guys in horned helmets and girls in tin foil hats are running amuck.
“Voters have the right to elect Marjorie Taylor Greene. Republicans don’t need to be stuck with her. The sooner she’s out of the party, the sooner she becomes a problem for the Democrats,” he concluded.
Then, there’s this tidbit from The Washington Examiner:
“Trump’s demagoguery had celebrity charm. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s socialist demagoguery has social media smarts. Sen. Ted Cruz’s demagoguery has, shall we call it, just enough subtlety and sophistication not to offend the senses too wildly. Greene has none, and if Republicans choose to embrace her, Democrats will gain a wildly powerful weapon in the war of whataboutism,” wrote conservative columnist Tiana Lowe.
“Greene advances nothing but owning the libs, if you can call histrionic apoplexy over her delusions any sort of success, and she does not bring any sort of coherent policy agenda or popular appeal that can advance any part of the conservative agenda. If conservatives decide not to condemn and expunge a conspiratorial anti-Semite whose disregard for class or policy coherence is offensive to the intellect, we will regret it, and we will deserve it,” she added.

“If Democrats remove me from my committees, I can assure them that the precedent they are setting will be used extensively against members on their side once we regain the majority after the 2022 elections.” – Marjorie Taylor Greene
As for Marjorie Taylor Greene, she knows her day of reckoning is coming. The House Rules Committee will meet on Wednesday to approve a resolution to kick Greene off the House Education and Labor Committee as well as the Budget Committee.
With political gunfire coming from Democrats, Republicans, and even other MAGA fanatics, the days of Marjorie Taylor Greene in the US House of Representatives could be numbered.
