Marjorie Taylor Greene offers bills to fire Fauci, ban vaccine passports

[demmiblue]

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) introduced two bills Thursday that would eliminate Anthony Fauci’s salary and ban vaccine passports.

Greene’s "Fire Fauci Act" would cut the salary for Fauci, the government’s leading infectious disease expert, to zero. It is unclear if such a cut could be authorized even if the legislation is passed.

According to the conservative firebrand, the cut would be made until a new director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) is “confirmed by the Senate.” However, the NIAID director’s appointment is not subject to Senate confirmation.

The "We Will Not Comply Act" would “ban” vaccine passports — documents that show that Americans have been vaccinated — by prohibiting businesses engaged in interstate commerce from using them to allow patrons to access their services.

1. Fire Fauci because he wasn't a Trumpuppet?

She a worthless idiot. She is of no service to the people she is supposed to represent.

[Aviation Pro]

4. Someone should let her know...

The era of all things trump is over!

[gratuitous]

5. If you're looking to do something useful with your copious spare time, Marjorie

Go stock the shelves at a homeless shelter or deliver meals on wheels. You clearly are in need of some adult supervision.

[Corgigal]

6. No one cares.

Worthless, won’t do a damn thing to help anyone who voted for her. Learn, humans.

[catbyte]

7. Silly me. And here I thought there would never be a member of Congress more willfully

ignorant, despicable, and downright stupid than Louie Gohmert.

Boy, was I wrong. Thanks for nothing, GQP voters of GA-14.

And CO-03 Gunslinger Barbie is running a very close second. As a woman, I am very, very insulted that they're the same gender. Ugh.

[blueinredohio]

8. How about representatives who don't have a committee assignment

not earn a salary?

[multigraincracker]

9. Can someone offer up a bill that would take away any Reps'

pay check that does not serve on any committees in the House.

[Midnight Writer]

10. She's likely to hurt herself with her exercise technique. Just saying.

I hope she is not instructing others.

numerous men and threatened her marriage.

[Volaris]

[obamanut2012]

15. She has the kippering fake pullups down pat

They were literally the last straw for me in Crossfit.

16. Heh... she is trending! Flashback:

CrossFit Is Finally Fed Up With Marjorie Taylor Greene

With every pull-up, power snatch, and hotel-room burpee, Marjorie Taylor Greene used CrossFit to build her brand, from gym owner to the House of Representatives’ most visible far-right conspiracy theorist. Before and during her political rise, CrossFit’s headquarters ignored Greene’s existence and her praise of the company’s workout programs — until now.

CrossFit for the first time disavowed Greene after BuzzFeed News asked in February about her history of calling for violence against political enemies, support for QAnon, attempts to undermine the 2020 presidential election, and amplification of other dangerous and deceptive nonsense. “CrossFit supports respectful fact-based political dialogue to address our common challenges, and we strongly oppose the loathsome and dangerous lies attributed to Ms. Greene,” Andrew Weinstein, a CrossFit spokesperson, told BuzzFeed News.

It started with Greene using her time as an affiliate gym owner to build her credibility as a small business owner. Then she asked for campaign donations and invited at least one gym member to donor events when she launched her congressional bid. Now, in Washington, she points to her time as an athlete and CrossFit affiliate owner to push her political agenda — like her viral hotel room workout in Washington, DC.

Though Greene entwined herself with the brand at nearly every step of her controversial political growth, CrossFit is only speaking out as it struggles to publicly account for its own accusations of racism, bigotry, and ignoring science during a lethal pandemic in its community of affiliates.
