Marjorie Taylor Greene buried by conservative for blaming 'the internet' for her conspiracy ravings [View all]
In a column for the Bulwark, conservative Mona Charen criticized an attempt by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) to clean up her image and lay blame for her conspiracy-laden rantings on being fooled by what she read on "the internet."
In the piece where the longtime columnist not too subtly suggested the controversial lawmaker has a "roiling stew of garbage between her ears," Charen said mainstream Republicans shouldn't buy her sudden conversion on the road to power at the side of newly elected Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA).
As the columnist pointed out, Taylor Greene has parted way with her former comrades-in-arms against the GOP establishment, Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) and Matt Gaetz (R-FL) in the battle for the House speakership that spread out over 4 days and fifteen ballots.
Fresh off McCarthy's victory she appeared on Fox News with host Howard Kurtz on Sunday where he gave her an opportunity to explain her history of inflammatory comments, to which she replied, "Like a lot of people today, I had easily gotten sucked into some things I had seen on the internet. But that was dealt with quickly early on. I never campaigned on those things. That was not something I believed in. That’s not what I ran for Congress on. So those are so far in the past."
