Party, the one that elected the worlds most infamous Internet Bully as commander in chief. And now theyre atop the smoldering heap of the once grand old party. And Marjorie Taylor greene, just one day after being voted to kick her off of two committees, she had a Press Conference with no contrition. Instead, she said she had been freed. So if i was on the committee, i would be wasting my time. Because my conservative values wouldnt be heard, and neither would my districts. It would be a waste of my time. She says now with no committee business, she has plenty of time on her hands. Which would seem to be the opposite of why her constituents voted for her. But she said hes only in it for the trolling anyway. Which prompted Adam Kinzinger to note, this is why i voted yes. She just has a huge desire to be famous. And shes right. Kinsinger is just one of 11 house members who voted to strip greene of her assignments, and also to impeach the animated troll doll who was in the white house. And
Greene took to the floor of the house and tried to defend herself from charges that she spread lies and Conspiracy Theories. She attempted to do so by telling lies and creating a new conspiracy theory. This one blaming the news media for, quote, taking teeny tiny pieces of comments she made so as to cancel her. That is not true. That is not at all what happened. The full context of congresswoman greenes bigoted theories and stunts have been recorded for all of us to see by her. Videos, live streams. We took screen shots. Here she is on video Accosting Parkland Activist and School Shooting survivor david hogg in 2019 calling him a coward. He was a teenager at the time. Here she is trying to find muslimamerican Congresswoman Tlaib and omar, trying to force them to swear in on a christian bible. Claiming falsely that they were not legitimate democratic representatives. Heres congresswoman greenes long unhinged Facebook Post accusing the wealthy jewish family, the rothschilds, of using a s
Joining us this hour. Heres an interesting thing. Sort of a personal thing, but also a news thing. Right before President Trump was impeached the first time, i published a book called blow out and the weird surprising to me thing about blow out is that tended up being oddly well timed. I had no idea it was going to be well timed when i set out to write it, but thats how it landed. It was a book about the Oil And Gas Industry and the political power and geopolitical power of that industry. And a big chunk of that book was about all of the craziness and Corruption In Ukraine. And of course, then, right at the time the book came out, all the craziness and Corruption In Ukraine ended up being the setting, like the Playing Field for what President Trump got impeached for the first time he got impeached. I did not intend it to land that way. It was fortuitous and i hope helpful to people trying to figure out that landscape while we were looking at that first impeachment. Now, of course, mr.
Alone and leaving republicans behind . Lets go out front. Good evening, im erin burnett. Out front tonight the breaking news. Kevin mccarthy with qanon supporter Marjorie Taylorgreene and could determine the future of the Republican Party in the United States. Because tonight the Republican Party is totally at odds over whether it will embrace qanon Conspiracy Theories as the core of the party and rhetoric like this from Marjorie Taylorgreene from 2019 thats just coming to light, will they embrace whats seen in this video uncovered by twitter user zedster . If we have a sea of people, if we shut down the streets, if we shut down everything, if we flood the capitol building, flood all of the government buildings, go inside. These are public buildings. We own them. We own these buildings. Do you understand that . We own the buildings and we pay the people who work in the buildings. Flood the capitol, flood the government buildings, we own the buildings. Sounds now so sinister, right . No
Their roles. The decision could change the direction of the party as we know it. Lets begin with jessica dean who joins us on the hill with more on this Power Sharing Agreement. Reporter the big thing here is democrats will now take control of the senate committees. When youre in control, youre setting the agenda. That means thing in joe bidens agenda that they wanted to get ahead, President Bidens agenda they wanted to push ahead like Merrick Garlands nomination for Attorney General can now move forward. Youll remember there has been a holdup on some of these nominees including Merrick Garland who is the nominee to be Attorney General because republicans maintained control of these committees, because they had to operate off the last congress because they didnt have this agreement in place. Now that democrats will take over these committees, that means democrats are going to have a much easier time getting things on the table. Theyre going to hold control. We expect now that someone l
