While House Democrats prepare to strip Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene from her committees, some GOP lawmakers have fired back, suggesting that Rep. Ilhan Omar be removed from her panels instead.

Democrats unveiled a measure this week to drop Greene from the House Education and Labor Committee and House Budget Committee over concerns she amplifies conspiracy theories and has endorsed political violence, according to recent reports on her past social media activity.

However, Texas Rep. Brian Babin on Tuesday proposed an amendment to the resolution that would replace Greene's name with Omar's, Forbes reported.

"If the Democrat Majority wants to go down this road, they should start by dealing with their own members who have been at this before and AFTER their election to Congress," Babin tweeted on Tuesday.

1. Oh, was Omar involved in overthrowing the US government? I wasn't aware of that...

[Mister Ed]

11. And did she advocate assassination of her congressional colleagues? I missed that too. n/t

[Zoonart]

2. My favorite GOP tactic...

The Pee Wee Hermann defense..."I know you are, but what am I?"

24. I Thought You Meant

Pleasuring themselves in a dark theater.

3. Racist reactionary assholes. Ilhan Omar was not tweeting Pelosi's whereabouts to insurrectionists.

4. Butt hurt fascist will be throwing all kinds of fits but it won't do them any good as long as Dems

stick together.

[Mr. Sparkle]

5. After Green, we really should move onto the "Freedom" caucus.

They are just as big a bunch of wackos as Green is.

[underpants]

6. Gee. Wonder why her?

I haven’t heard much about her of late.

[Maeve]

7. Malarkey! We need to start using this word

He hasn't the votes or a proper rationale; he's simply bloviating.

Everything's big in Texas, especially egos.

[hadEnuf]

8. And what is Rep. Racist Asshole's complaint against Rep. Omar?

Let's see some charges and evidence. If there is none then he should be removed too.

[SWBTATTReg]

9. Well then, I'd move all republicans from all committees then...

[Initech]

10. If Omar had been doing the things Marjorie is doing, the cons would have canned her last week.

And been popping the champagne this week.

[Marcuse]

22. Years ago, if they had any grounds.

Their objection is to her religion.

[McKim]

12. More Power Struggles

More wars and power struggles from the republicans. The fight is so much more important to them than getting anything done like having a functional government!

[Tommymac]

13. They are like 3 year olds.

Well, on reflection, my apologies to the 3 year old toddlers who are much more mature.

[bdamomma]

27. exactly

spoiled brats. We all know how desperate they are.

[aggiesal]

14. (R)'s are Irony deficient n/t

[LymphocyteLover]

15. this is such disgusting BS-- Republikkkans are the worst

[BlueIdaho]

16. It's the shits being in the minority -

Ain’t it Brian?

[bdamomma]

28. Karma

beating their asses.

[Ford_Prefect]

17. Poor little Brian has nothing more to offer than contempt for Congress and the Constitution?

Maybe we should pass a bill to remove him too, along with the rest of those who voted against accepting the EC votes.

[bdamomma]

30. +10000

nt

[sakabatou]

18. You've got to be fucking kidding me.

[Gore1FL]

19. Their desperation to keep the racist block of voters is insane. nt

[George II]

20. He brought it up toward the end of the Rules Committee hearing. Chairman McGovern all but ruled....

....it was out of order.

They voted a few minutes ago to send it to the floor of the house. There's a 2-hour debate tomorrow before the floor vote, which should be interesting.

[Traildogbob]

21. And WE need to unify.

Fuck everything GOP. We won. Use the power. Fuck what they want.

[theneworiginal]

23. They are making a very big bet on MTG.

I get why they are offering blowback--although I don't agree--but they are making her the face of the party with Trump numbers down 20 points in the last 6 weeks. They are slitting their own throats and doubling down on the razor blades.

[bdamomma]

26. bastards

but they are so predictable. So who's next??? Women???? Blacks?? Muslims???

Such bastards.

[trof]

29. Can they do that?

If not, fuck 'em.

[BumRushDaShow]

31. They can attempt to amend the resolution

but (depending on how they work the Rules), someone can call for a motion to table it, and if seconded, the motion would get a voice vote, where the (Democratic Acting) Speaker would then note that the "ayes" have it, which would then lead a GOP loon to object and request a full (electronic) vote, and if that is successful (in agreement with the voice vote), the amendment would then be tabled and dead.

[BobTheSubgenius]

33. Wow. You are really well-versed in thesd procedural rules.

Kudos, and thanks for being such a resource!

[BumRushDaShow]

34. CSPAN junkie

since 1989 (when we finally got cable where I lived).

[BobTheSubgenius]

37. CSPAN should know about you.

[BumRushDaShow]

38. My mom was the original junkie

and hooked me. She would continually complain about Brian Lamb!

[BobTheSubgenius]

36. And I can't even spell.

[JohnnyRingo]

35. MTG is not being removed because she's too conservative.

It's because she's a menace to decorum and society at large.

Republicans' tit for tat seeks to remove someone because she doesn't like pollution and is too far left for their liking.
Unlike Greene, AOC really is green.
