And a sudden turn of events. A freshman republican with a documented history of publicly supporting dangerous and violent Conspiracy Theories refusing to back down when faced with her own words and also a Republican House conference that despite a dramatic meeting last night, that went late into last night, they have decided to do nothing to rebuke her and what she stands for.

Congresswoman Marjory Taylor greenes comments are putting her party on the spot. Today, lawmakers will have to go on the record over whether or not to strip her of her committee assignments. In the next hour, the white house or rather, the house will start proceedings to make that happen. When it comes to conference chair liz cheney, republicans were okay saying one thing about her publically after she voted to impeach former President Trump but in a closeddoor meeting last night, a majority voted to keep her in a position of leadership even after her break with the former president.
