House Democrats have filed a resolution to remove Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene from her committee assignments in response to incendiary and false remarks she has made.
The short bill — introduced by Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., on Monday — calls for Greene, R-Ga., to be removed from the budget and eduction committees “in light of conduct she has exhibited.”
The House Committee on Rules has scheduled discussion on the measure for Wednesday at 3 p.m.

Greene won election in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District in November but has since come under growing criticism for controversial recent and past remarks she has made in support of various conspiracy theories.
In January, the freshman congresswoman had her Twitter account temporarily suspended after tweeting accusations of unfounded election wrongdoing against Georgia election officials.

Last week, CNN reported social media interactions by Greene from 2018 and 2019 suggested support for violence against Democratic politicians and others in government, though Greene denied the accusations, stating that “I’ve had teams of people manage my pages.”
“Many posts have been liked. Many posts have been shared. Some did not represent my views,” she said.
However, Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell on Monday issued a statement amid the growing uproar, stating “loony lies and conspiracy theories are cancer for the Republican Party and our country.”
“Somebody who’s suggested that perhaps no airplane hit the Pentagon on 9/11, that horrifying schools shootings were pre-staged and that the Clintons crashed JFK Jr.’s airplane is not living in reality,” he said without identifying Greene by name in the statement first reported on by The Hill.
Greene responded on Twitter, saying “the real cancer for the Republican Party is weak Republicans who only know how to lose gracefully.”
“This is why we are losing our country,” she said.
During a virtual press conference on Monday, Wasserman Schultz told reporters that by removing Greene from the committees they can reduce the harm she could inflect.
Expulsion, she said, would be a fitting punishment, but would require two-thirds of the House to vote in agreement.
“If Republicans won’t police their own, the House must step in,” she said.
Greene warned via Twitter that if she is removed from the committees, the Democrats would be setting precedent that will be “extensively” used against them if the Republicans gain a majority of the House in 2022.
“And we will regain the majority, make no mistake about that,” she said.

“It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension,
the truth is the greatest “enemy of the State.””
“The 80 million (and likely more) Americans who voted for President Trump in November, only to see the election stolen from them, know what happened despite incessant Democrat, Fake News, and “social media” efforts to supplant reality with the lie that the Biden cabal actually won. The ruse isn’t working. And opponents of this shaky facade of “legitimacy” pose a grave threat to it. Consequently, all who dare deny the Biden “victory” quickly graduate into being “enemies of the State.””
Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, labeled US President Donald Trump and the Republican Party “domestic enemies” and “enemies of the State.”
Do you see where the “Socialist Democrat Party State” is going with this??… Comrade
Do you remember the many times former-President Trump used the term “enemies of the state” to describe those who dared to disagree with him ?
Does he own a copyright on the use of that term ?
Democrat; basilbuddhacat: Like most Democrats, you make up your own facts to fit what you want to believe.
“Donald Trump has called Republican Georgia Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, an “enemy of the people”.
“Mr Trump said: “You’re not allowed to harvest, but I understand the secretary of state, who is really an “enemy of the people”, the secretary of state, and whether he’s Republican or not,”
I heard the President use many terms when describing Marxist Communist DemocRATS, but NEVER Enemy of the State. That’s a term common in Marxist Communist Countries, yet DemocRATS use it often while turning OUR Republic into The USSR of America. Another common tactic of the DemocRATS is whatever Vile and disgusting thing they accuse Conservatives of doing, they have been doing for decades.
BASIL. For one, Trump never used “Enemy of the state”, just enemy of the people. AND TWO, There’s a big difference, in just CALLING SOMEONE something, and that’s it (WHICH is what trump did), and the LEFT WHO WON’T just stop at calling you something, they’ll TRY TO RUIN YOUR LIFE…
The difference is Trump was right. As Pelosi said the “enemy is within” and and she’s right. It’s the Democrats.
ALONG with all the backstabbing RINOS!
My Dear “Scruffy Swabby” Friend, I started saying this during what I call the regimes of the Two Janets, Reno and Napolitano: “I may become an ‘Enemy of the State’, but never of ‘We, The People'”. Now, according to former CIA Director John Brennan, who was, ” … on MSNBC, contending that American intelligence agencies “are moving in laser-like fashion to try to uncover as much as they can about” the pro-Trump “insurgency” that harbors “religious extremists, authoritarians, fascists, bigots, racists, nativists, even libertarians.” That means I am now officially “An Enemy of the State”. Why? Because I am a proudly Unhyphenated American. That makes me, according to Brennan, a “Nativist”. I am not a “Color” I am Caucasian, Colors are for paint. Or, in the case of Liberals, Crayons. [From an Ex-GI 06/’59-06/’62]
I guess, everyone on this site, then, is an “Enemy of the state”.. AND I AM proud to be one!
Don’t blame Georgia y’all, this is my beloved state. RINO Republicans are turning on us faster than we can vote them in. It’s happening all over the country. Truth is, this is preparations for anti-christ’s entrance. Forget politics, know GOD’s WORD.
WHY shouldn’t we blame georgia? MAYBE IF THE VOTERS stopped keeping on sending these rinos BACK INTO OFFICE< we'd not be in this big of a mess..
you spineless republicans better start fighting for your own because the demoncrats are going to slaughter you wholesale.
First they came for my neighbors down the street, then they came for me and I was alone.
The Reverend Martin Niemöler:
“First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.”
Thing is, CAUSE THEY ARE SPINLESS cowards, they won’t ever do a damn thing to FIGHT any of this..
For years, they’ve PROVEN THEY ARE incapable of fighting.
Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, should be removed from Congress, for having Pakistani spies (IT workers), working for her and stealing sensitive information from Congressional computers! Then Debbie should be tried as a traitor to the United States!
I and many Progressives are critical of Wasserman-Schultz about many things – including supporting Payday Loan companies who gouge people with interest rates that keep them in debt long-term and other things you may or may not be aware of – but there is no evidence of your “stealing information” claims.
Stick to facts and avoid being drawn into conspiracy theories. Progressives have been trying to unseat her for two or three election cycles.
I did stick to the facts. This was all over Fox News. From The Dailey Caller: •Lawyers for Pakistani-born Imran Awan currently have a copy of the contents of a laptop with the username RepDWS
•Wasserman Schultz wanted to block prosecutors from seeing what was on it
•Imran’s lawyers have attempted to set up a situation where it is up to Imran whether prosecutors can see the laptop, claiming “attorney client privilege”
IF YOU Are ‘such a progressive’, WHY THEN Pray tell, are you on a site FOCUSED ON and made for CONSERVATIVES?
funny thing is DWS still has that guy on her payroll and he is still doing her IT stuff for her because she got him released from jail, that guy is still facing deportation for the crimes he has committed. it has been proven that, that immran sent copies of not just the laptop bot copies of another hard drive to pakistan.
AND who knows what else? He Conspiracy theories were worse
The majority of the demoncrat members of congress are, in fact, Traitors; and as such should be: indicted, tried, and when found guilty they should have the prescribed punishment expedited. I’d prefer the punishment be administered on the Capital steps at Noon on a clear cold day.
NOTHING will happen to her, NOR to feinstein, who had a cHINESE spy being her driver..
And so it begins, the left wing liberal democrats will find a way to silence anyone that dares oppose them. Their PC speech Nazis are going to try to discredit all who would not follow their directions. The American citizens better wake up to this fact before they lose their rights granted by our constitution. The protections made by the Trump administration is being discarded by the democrats and will soon put our country in further danger from the flood of illegals invading our country. In order to survive a country must have borders, and protect them, or they will soon be swallowed up and cease to exist.
Far too many American Citizens don’t even know what their Constitutional rights are, because they’ve never read either The Declaration of Independence or The Constitution of The United States. If our Republic collapses they will look up from their smart phones, watch the truth tellers being hauled off to prison, and wonder what happened.
OR, for year’s they have been BROW BEATEN by teachers, that to USE those constitutional rights, is bigoted, racist, sexist, white privilege etc..
Only they won’t view those they see being hauled off as “Truth Tellers”, because they’ve been indoctrinated to see them as Kooks, Conspiracy Nuts and [worst of all] “Conservatives”.
Hell, the RINOS will probably CLAP, as those truth tellers, get drug off.
I agree Gus. It’s sickening that so called Republicans would always kill their own, instead of protecting their rights to speak. Rep Greene is obviously correct. RINOs hate Trump because he was strong and made waves. I’m sick of our Republican Party always trying to be the peace makers and roll over and take it. No, it’s time to stand up and fight for America! That’s why we love DJT, and why the Swamp Republicans hate him. Why hasn’t the DOJ put a dozen people on trail for the Russian scandal? Why isn’t Hillary in Ft. Leavenworth? Why did we let the DNC steal the election? Better start answering these questions if you don’t want to lose your freedoms. It’s time to take a stand. Rep Greene is a hero.
Very few Republicans have any balls. Most of them are terrified the Democrat cheerleaders, the media, will call them nasty names.
Way too many Republicans are pusillus weasels unlike Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.)who has balls nearly big enough to need a wheelbarrow.
Is saying a bullet to the House Speaker’s head is ok a “political belief” ?
Is saying the slaughters of school children in Sandy Hook and Florida were staged a “political belief” ?
Feel free to add other statements by her that you believe were “political statements”.
Apparently you “missed” Nancy’s inflammatory rants (and ethics issue), Maxine “Stagnate” Waters call for violence against GOP members and Trump supporters (and utter ignorance), the Squads anti American/anti Jewish/anti GOP statements, or the Dem member of the House Intelligence Committee who had an affair with a Chinese spy for starters. Most should be in jail and out of the House. BTW, wasn’t it a Bernie supporter who shot at GOP House members????
Actually it is one method of punishment for Treason, not a Political Belief.
Soooo…. Bipartisan, work together, meet at common ground, debate the subject and work for the people, ALL, of who may very well have different opinions about what needs to be done. It is now front and center and out in the open, NO ONE HAS A RIGHT TO A DIFFERENT OPINION, one MUST be subjected to the will of the communist/democrat party. WAKE UP PEOPLE!
You are recognizing the exact strategy of former-President Trump. He never acted in a bi-partisan way.
Isn’t that exactly what bullies like Trump do – when they get pushback from those they are bullying, they whine about how they’re being mistreated.
Majority rules. We all feel neglected when we’re in the minority, don’t we ?
A simple mission for your homework sparky, compare the 4 years of results of Trump to 8 years of failure of obama/hidden admins. There is a reason Trump was willing to work with leftist fools, only to an extent, it is called vision and experience.
You seem to forget (or choose not to remember) Trump REPEATEDLY trying to work with Nazi Pelosi and Chuck You Schumer – only to be snubbed (you know, like that “polite” action of Nazi Pelosi tearing up the State of the Union speech behind Trump’s back).
And it has NOTHING to do with being a BULLY, it has to do with being a BUSINESS MAN who GETS THINGS DONE (not by sending money to reckless Democrat Governors because they overspend and over-promise pensions to their LAZY, OVERPAID public workers) – rather than sending checks to the REAL struggling Americans (put out of work BY these SAME overspending Democrat Governors)!
And, of course, Barack Obama was the very model of working with “the other side”, wasn’t he?
SINCE the left under obama, DID NOT FOR YEARS even try to work with republicans, what so bloody ever, AND WHEN TRUMP DID try to work with dems, they basically THREW IT IN HIS FACE, exactly HW IS THIS IN ANYWAY the same bloody thing?
“Majority Rules” says you. Well, in a Democracy you’re quite correct. We however, thank God and our Founders that we are not “A Democracy”, we are a “Democratic Republic”. The difference, you may ask? Well, in a democracy, as you say, the majority rules. In a democratic republic, Liberty rules. Here’s the way one founder put it: “Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well armed lamb contesting the vote.” -Benjamin Franklin
Here’s food for thought : Pro-Palestinian is not Anti-Jewish or Anti-Israeli.
They are all Semites. Read the Bible.
What an absurd and ignorant statement! BTW, the alleged “Palestians” of old are totally unrelated to the current residents claiming to own Palestine today. Those happen to be Arabs . Trying to split hairs to ignore ANTI-JEWISH hate by alleged “Progressives”
SINCE mondern day palestinians WANT ISRAEL DESTROYED< how do you think/feel, 'being pro palestine is NOT being anti jewish? ISN'T Supporting an org, who FLAT OUT HAS SAID DAY IN AND DAY OUT, we want to Drive israel into the ocean, BEING ANTI ISRAEL?!?!?
buddha, What do you know about the BIBLE? You’re god is NOT my GOD, Deuteronomy 32 – the Song of Moses.
Republicans have always been too polite and proper. Its like bringing a knife to a gun fight, and expecting to come out on top.
If Greene should be removed for her previous positions, then Swalwell should be removed from his committee and Omar should be removed from Congress entirely.
That seems like an odd and inappropriate simile coming from a party whose members own an average of over three firearms per household, doesn’t it ?
Does your mommy know you’re on the computer saying stupid stuff?
JUST cause many REPUBLICAN VOTERS own guns, doesn’t mean, THOSE IN CONGRESS do..
Quote: ” … If they bring a knife we bring a gun … “. Any idea who said that? [Hint: “He” was quite contemptuous of “His” political enemies – in a Regal sort o’way, of course. Yes, it twas BHO.]
It’s OK with democraps and RINO’s for a congressman on the foreign intelligence committee to be boinking a chinese spy, but we can’t have a republican with freedom of speech.
Mitch McConnell on Monday issued a statement amid the growing uproar, stating “loony lies and conspiracy theories are cancer for the Republican Party and our country.”
Greene responded on Twitter, saying “the real cancer for the Republican Party is weak Republicans who only know how to lose gracefully.”
“This is why we are losing our country,” she said.
Interesting how Mitch and his Spineless Establishment Comrades have nothing to say concerning the vile statements made by Radical Democrats.
Not a word from this piece of garbage when Harris praised the rioters, looters and arsonists of bLM and Antifa.
–
Greene warned via Twitter that if she is removed from the committees, the Democrats would be setting precedent that will be “extensively” used against them if the Republicans gain a majority of the House in 2022.
Sadly I have to disagree with Greene on this. As weak, spineless and worthless as the Republican Establishment is this will never happen. They are far too busy attacking their own. And shooting themselves in the foot.
I’m sure you’re aware that Progressives make the same complaints about Democratic Party insiders that Regressives make against Republican Party insiders.
And when will the GOP start a campaign to rid the House of swamp weed mouthed Pelosi, Waters, AOC, the anti-Americans Tlaib and Omar and their provocative speech.
Never.. They’re too bloody spineless.
It seems to me that her political beliefs were well known when her constituents chose her to represent them. Since when does the House get to decide which political views The People can send to DC?! What they are proposing is bald-faced tyranny.
And, considering her campaign statements and what her previous opinions were, the citizens voted for her and Rep. Greene won her district by a landslide margin. I’d say that she’s doing and saying EXACTLY what the vast majority of her constituency intended for their Congresswoman to do and say.
That’s WHY THEY voted for her, CAUSE Of her political beliefs (AND ACTIONS)..
It is not a good idea to see to how far an extreme you can go. Rep. Greene may be about to learn that the hard way. She would be much more effective in advancing the conservative agenda if she would stop talking.
I agree with her point about future congresses. No party remains in power forever in Washington. Normally when power changes hands, the new party in power manages to take the power grabs of the previous party in power and up them a notch. The same Democrats who are eager to remove her power may find that some of their more fiery orators will face a similar fate in 2023 if the Republicans gain control of the House in 2022. By the way, that scenario is very likely. It is common for the party that controls the White House to lose congressional seats in the midterm election.
That’s what it was before. BUT SINCE THE RADICAL leftist commies, KNOW THEIR voter fraud will be CONDONED by the courts and media, WHY WOULD THEY WORRY about potentially losing seats in 2022?? THEY simply won’t LET THEM LOSE ANY SEATS.
I disagree. Unfortunately, after the debacles which were called elections, in Nov 2020 and Jan 2021; the demoncrats [aka: Marxists] have no intention of losing The House, The Senate, or The Presidency, EVER AGAIN. Joe even admitted it in a Freudian slip when he said on camera “We have put together I think the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.” He was likely ad-libing [dangerous for someone with reduced cognitive ability] and left out the one word that an alert liar would have inserted: “prevention”.
I know many who said “HE SAID the first truthful thing” with that ‘slip’
I’ll admit Greene said some pretty dumb things, but speaking of dummies saying dumb things, then why is that stupid ugly old cement faced horrid hag still speaker of the house? And how about the dumb statement the bug eyed donkey face made “We don’t need farmers. We have grocery stores.” Then her newest remark about being a rape victim (in her dreams). Then there’s racist stupid remarks from the Minnesota diaper head and the Michigan 4 eyed pig face. How about the stupid remarks that helped to insight violence from prune face Maxipad? I could go on and on about pea brained dummycrats but there’s only just so much space gopusa.com will allow.
Wilddog, you do a pretty effective job of fitting so many racist and misogynist slurs in a short paragraph. Perhaps someone here might nominate you for a Nobel Prize alongside ex-president trump.
Racist? SO calling someone a horrid hag, or bug eyed donkey face, is now racist? Wow.. JUST wow…
You watch, if they manage to they remove her, then they’ll start trying to remove all the rest of the Republicans for their “political beliefs”! That is the aim of the Democrats, to remove the Republican Party and any and all obstacles to their power grab.
While we’re at it how about removing Swalwell from the House Intelligence Committee. After all he was involved with a Chinese spy. I guess Schultz is fine with fellow democrats colluding with the CCP, not that it would be dangerous of our nation or anything.
Dems and spies.. OK. Republicans speaking the truth – BAD/wrong/evil…
People say the Republican Party is dying. I got news for them. It’s dead already. Every time a Republican stands up to the Democrats, there are always some Republicans that side with the Demos. And what has it done for us? We got Biden and all the other commies.
“loony lies and conspiracy theories are cancer for the Republican Party and our country.”
No McConnell, That’s what Democrats, You & your traitorous RINOs are guilty of.
“the real cancer for the Republican Party is weak Republicans who only know how to lose gracefully.”
“This is why we are losing our country,” she said.
And I’ll add turncoat traitors to the conservative people is what has cost the Republicans my vote! Did ya see how the people got behind Donald Trump? Chanting “WE LOVE YOU”? Now, I for one am chanting “I HATE Y’ALL!!!”
So when will house republicans start to remove democrats who support antifa ???? Blm ??? Both are violent !! That’s fair.
IMO, never. THey’re too dam Yella, to even try.
