Defiant Marjorie Taylor Greene Creates Own House Committee on Semitic Aerospace Weaponry

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—After being stripped of her committee assignments, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has created a committee of her own, the House Committee on Semitic Aerospace Weaponry.

Greene said that such a committee was sorely needed, given that “Semitic aerospace weaponry is the second-biggest threat facing this country, right after plane crashes caused by the Clintons.”

“And it’s going to be way better than some dumb old committee about education,” she added.

The Georgia Republican said that she was not at all discouraged that Democrats had shown no interest in joining her committee, despite her advertising on Facebook that there would be a generous array of snacks at every meeting.

“Of course, it’s obvious why Democrats don’t care about snacks,” she said. “Hello? Cannibals?”

Rand Paul is merely a transportation device.

Maybe that is what Margarie Taylor Greene and Bang Bang (whatever her name is) are good for - a jobs program for comedians and satirists, not to mention political cartoonists.
