Marjorie Taylor Greene Lists Committees She Wants on After GOP Takeover
Source: Newsweek
Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene listed the Oversight, Judiciary, and Foreign Affairs as the top three committees she wants to serve on in case the GOP takes over the majority of Congress in the upcoming midterm elections.
"I'd be honored to serve on Oversight to hold the Democrats accountable for abusing their power, Judiciary to push through my articles of impeachment on Joe Biden, and Foreign Affairs to put America First and China Last and stop the never-ending wars pushed by globalist neocons," she said in an interview that was published by the Rome News-Tribune Sunday.
The Georgia congresswoman called the current Congress committees "useless" because the GOP serves as the minority and that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is ruling Congress "with an iron fist," adding that "GOP bills and amendments don't see the light of day."
In February 2021, the House of Representatives voted to remove Greene from her assignments on the Budget panel and the Education and Labor Committee due to her history of controversial comments that included conspiracy theories and her alleged support of violence against Democrats prior to taking office, according to NPR.

McCarthy said he wasn't going to pursue impeachment. If the Republicans do take the House of Representatives I wonder if he can keep the nutcases under control.

Why not "The world is your pizza?" Or ice cream? Beer? Bacon! Now there's a thought.

Otherwise, the silly git would want to be on all of them.
I really, really hope her district is sick of her antics.

(18,637 posts)I'll bet she thinks it's Pelosi, Schumer, and John Kerry. She doesn't know it's a new conservative, not someone trying to con her.
Hopefully, she won't see another term.

(4,374 posts)The Republican takeovers of congress prior to those presidential elections did them no good, it seems... they probably helped our side.
Republicans have no plans to help the American people.
To hurt them?? That is another matter.

We need 81 million to vote in the midterms.

(1,784 posts)...this is the kind of crap you would see on incel neo-Nazi Reddit/4Chan boards just a couple years ago. RooshV shit. Now it's so mainstreamed that MTG feels completely at ease using this language with a local newspaper reporter. What's next? MTG using alt-right lingo like "cuck" and "soyboy"?!
The newspaper might as well have added the triple parentheses to what she said, because it's barely concealed. For her alt-right fans, it's not a dogwhistle, it's a foghorn.
For those who haven't seen the (((triple parentheses))) before: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_parentheses

That said, being unqualified for your position fully qualifies you if you are a Republicant.
