Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Monday blasted Georgia GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s embrace of “loony lies and conspiracy theories” as a “cancer for the Republican Party.”
“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,” McConnell said in a statement first shared with The Hill. “This has nothing to do with the challenges facing American families or the robust debates on substance that can strengthen our party.”
McConnell didn’t mention Greene by name in his three-sentence statement, but his rare, scathing remarks about a freshman GOP lawmaker from the other chamber suggests he recognizes the potential damage her violent rhetoric and bizarre conspiracy theories could inflict on congressional Republicans as they try to take back both the House and Senate in next year’s midterms.
Greene responded on Twitter, writing that “the real cancer for the Republican Party is weak Republicans who only know how to lose gracefully.”

Remember all those accusations that Kamala Harris had thrown at Biden – enough accusations to get someone locked up for several lifetimes. Yet Harris turned around from there on a dime to becoming Biden’s running mate. When asked about it, she laughingly derided the question with the snide remark: “That was a debate!”. By their own standards, this simply means Greene did what she had to do to get elected and it has no connection to her in office or on committees – and she had not offered any such of her alleged conspiracy theories in office.
The difference is is that Greene has been spouting her conspiracy theories on social media for many years, way before she was running for office. So no, she did not just say it to get elected.
So one must walk in lockstep now with the Rino’s that control the Republican party?!
Talk about a non-sequitur. When talking about this Southern loony white trash, who cares about what Harris said about Biden????
Belated kudos to the “Old Giezer”.
The Woman is demented & a threat to society; not to mention American Democracy.
Suggestion: How about her joining Trump in his “Alice in Wonderland” cocoon”.Lol.
Will you be willing to change Mr. Biden’s Depends if he would ask you to? It would be a great service to our Nation, and certainly to those that are within daled amos of him.
McConnell’s embrace of the Democrats is fishy, too.
His wife has worked for the Obama administration. That tells you all you need to know.
We no longer have any opposition in government. Those on the left who are cheering this development will rue the day when the corruption becomes so rampant, they will cry themselves to sleep on a local park bench.
