New details here about a long meeting in the GOP steering committee about Marjorie Taylor Greenes future, per multiple sources.
- The GOP Steering Committee has NOT made a decision yet on whether to strip her from her committee assignments and will meet again tomorrow.
- Kevin McCarthy did not weigh in one way or the other on what he thought should be done.
- McCarthy met with Greene, but she didnt meet with Steering. In relaying how meeting with Greene went, McCarthy gave NO indication Greene showed remorse or contrition for past comments
- While theres a belief that she should off her two committees among the GOP members, theres a concern about punishing members for things they did before winning their election.
- Theres also concern about the precedent it would set if Dems strip her assignments in floor vote

MTG et al behaved so threateningly to Representative Cori Bush and her staff that Cori Bush asked for a change of office.
